It’s chonky and has its compromises, but the Galaxy Z TriFold is also pretty awesome! The Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold is very exclusive and will likely remain.
The Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold is very exclusive and will likely remain like that – it’s on sale in South Korea, China, Taiwan, Singapore, and the UAE, and is expected to arrive Stateside soon.
But we managed to spend some time with one at this year’s CES and we have some early thoughts to share.
Compared to modern phones, especially recent ones, it’s quite the brick when folded. There’s no getting around that – having two folding sides and one middle one means the Galaxy Z TriFold will be a fat gadget when fully closed.
However, it’s not unmanageably thick, and people who’ll buy the TriFold will likely accept the girth for the benefits they’ll get when they unfold the device. After all the Galaxy Z TriFold is thinner than the Galaxy Z Fold5 and that was perfectly acceptable two years ago. Also goes to show the engineering masterclass the Samsung engineers pulled off with the TriFold.
The Galaxy Z TriFold transforms into a 10-inch tablet when unfolded.
