Samsung is finally gearing up to unveil its first triple-folding smartphone, dubbed the Galaxy Z TriFold, at the sidelines of the ongoing APEC summit in the South Korean city of Gyeongju.
Samsung has beefed up security at its APEC booth ahead of the Galaxy Z TriFold unveil this week
According to the South Korean publication, Hankyung, Samsung has beefed up security at its APEC booth, going so far as to install security personnel at the entrance to its booth, ahead of the Galaxy Z TriFold unveil this week.
According to the publication, the much-anticipated triple-folding from Samsung will be unveiled on October 28 at the "K-Tech Showcase," a side-event of the Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation (APEC) Summit.
As we reported recently, APEC event attendees will not be able to personally handle the Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold, with the phone expected to be showcased only under a glass panel.
As far as the device's specs are concerned, it is expected to feature:
- Three display sections connected by two hinges, enabling its transformation into a full-sized tablet when unfurled.
- A 10-inch OLED inner display (vs. the 8-inch one on the Galaxy Fold 7) and a 6.5-inch outer one.
- Unlike Huawei Mate XT, Samsung's new foldable will not combine inward and outward folds, and will instead adopt a U-shaped folding mechanism for screen protection. This means that the outer display will not merge with the inner display when the phone is unfurled.
- A titanium shell for increased durability.
- Three batteries, with a combined capacity of over 5,000mAh.
- A 200-megapixel primary camera with 100x zoom capabilities.
- The device will ship with the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 SoC.
- The phone is expected to launch in multiple countries, including the US, the UAE, and Vietnam.
- Possibly priced at $2,800.
