Samsung's Trifold Phone: Launching Soon?
So, it sounds like Samsung is finally ready to unleash its trifold phone upon the world! Remember that crazy concept they showed off a while back? Well, whispers are getting louder that it might actually be hitting the shelves pretty soon. I'm talking maybe this month or next!
While we're all hyped for the Unpacked event this week with promises of fancy AI tablets and the Galaxy S25's newest sibling, don't expect the trifold to steal the show there. A Korean news outlet, ET News, is saying the foldable could get its grand reveal this month, with actual sales starting in November.
However, before you get too excited, it sounds like this initial launch might be super limited. We're talking a possible run of only 50,000 units. That's a tiny drop in the bucket compared to the millions of preorders Huawei bragged about for their first foldable. Which reminds me, Huawei is gearing up to launch their second-gen foldable this week!
I've been hearing conflicting reports about the exact timing. Another Korean site thinks Samsung might have a separate Unpacked event on September 29th to show off their new XR headset, codenamed "Project Moohan." And the ever-reliable leaker Ice Universe is chiming in, saying the trifold *and* some AR glasses could make an appearance there too.
Honestly, I'd take all these dates with a grain of salt. Tech rumors are like weather forecasts – they can change on a dime. But, all signs point to us getting some official news about this intriguing trifold phone sooner rather than later. And you know I'll be keeping my eyes peeled!
