Over the last few months, Samsung’s first trifold phone has been extensively detailed in several leaks. But we never got a look at the phone’s design, be it through leaked renders or officially from Samsung. That’s now changing just days ahead of its rumored launch, as a trusted leaker has finally shared the first renders of the device, giving us our best look yet at Samsung’s next big foldable experiment.
Reliable Samsung leaker @UniverseIce shared an image showing the Galaxy Z TriFold cover display and inner folding screen. The low-resolution render does not reveal a lot about the device. However, one thing is clear: the foldable will look similar to the Z Fold 7, albeit with one extra folding panel.
Like the Z Fold 7, the render suggests Samsung will stick to a punch-hole camera for the inner folding display. And instead of the middle, the camera will sit in the top-center of the left-most panel.
The render lines up perfectly with the animation assets spotted in a leaked One UI 8.5 firmware, lending even more credibility to its authenticity.
While not mentioned, internally, the Z TriFold should share the same specs as the Z Fold 7. This includes a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, up to 16GB RAM, 512GB or 1TB storage, and a 200MP primary rear camera. The secondary shooters should also mirror the Fold 7 setup, featuring a 10MP 3x telephoto lens and a 12MP ultrawide camera.
Galaxy Z TriFold should debut soon
Samsung has not officially confirmed when it plans to launch its first tri-folding phone. But reports claim the South Korean giant could take the wraps off it at the upcoming APEC 2025, which kicks off later this week on October 31, 2025.
With only around 50,000 units being manufactured, Samsung will possibly limit the TriFold’s launch to South Korea, China, Singapore, Taiwan, and the UAE. Yep, the device might not make its way to the US. With a rumored $3,000 price tag, though, the device would have barely found any takers in the stateside anyway.
