The Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold goes on sale later this week for an eye watering $2,900, marking the beginning of the triple-fold phone era in the US.
Samsung has officially confirmed that its much-anticipated Galaxy Z TriFild smartphone will go on sale this Friday, January 30 in the US, and that it’ll cost $2,900. The handset will be available for purchase at Samsung’s Experience Stores across the country, in addition to being purchasable through the company’s online storefront.
Samsung isn’t offering pre-orders for the Z TriFold, and so availability will be on a first-come, first-serve basis when stores open on Friday. The phone is available in a single configuration of 16GB of RAM and 512GB of internal storage, and in a single crafted black colorway.
Other key Z TriFold specifications include a Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, a 5,600mAh battery pack, 45W fast wired charging, 15W wireless charging, a triple rear-camera setup, two selfie cameras, IP48 water and dust resistance, a capacitive fingerprint sensor, and Android 16 with One UI 8 out of the box.
By virtue of its triple-fold nature, the Z TriFold is a relatively thick device when folded shut, measuring in at 0.51-inches (12.9mm) thick. When unfolded, however, the benefit is having access to a large, widescreen 10-inch OLED display panel, with a 120Hz refresh rate and a 1584 x 2160 pixel resolution to boot.
