Samsung will unleash its new tri-fold smartphone by the end of the year according to the company's acting head of the Device Experience Division.
In a new report from the Korea Times, we're hearing that the tri-fold smartphone from Samsung will be released before the end of 2025, with the company noting it plans to introduce new device form factors in the future that will enhance users' AI experience.
Roh Tae-moon, acting head of Samsung Electronics' Device Experience Division, said: "As we dive deeper into AI, the role of smartphones is becoming more important. Through hardware innovation optimized for AI services, we will fundamentally change the user experience. The smartphone is no longer just a tool. It is becoming an AI partner that sees, understands and responds to what users are seeing in real time. Samsung is working on more innovative form factors to lead the AI era".
The new form factor in question is the tri-fold smartphone rumored to be called the Galaxy G Fold, which Roh said: "I expect we will be able to launch the tri-fold phone within this year".
Roh added: "We are working hard on a tri-fold smartphone with the goal of launching it at the end of this year. We are now focusing on perfecting the product and its usability, but we have not decided its name. As the product nears completion, we are planning to make a final decision soon".
