One of the most important names in the smartphone industry, Samsung, aims to expand its share in the foldable phone market with its new triple-foldable model.
Samsung is preparing to expand its foldable product lineup with a triple-foldable smartphone that it plans to launch in 2025. The device will feature a screen that folds twice, offering both a tablet-sized display and a compact phone form factor. If Samsung launches this innovative phone globally, it could become the world's first triple-foldable phone after Huawei’s Mate XT, which is sold only in China.
Looking at Samsung’s success with foldable phones to date, this new model is expected to come equipped with the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset. This chipset offers 40% higher GPU performance and 35% improved ray-tracing capabilities compared to the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 used in the current Galaxy Z Fold 6. Additionally, it provides 44% energy efficiency, ensuring high performance for gaming and multitasking.
One of the innovations of the Snapdragon 8 Elite is its improved NPU, which increases AI capabilities by 45%. As a result, advanced AI features seen in the Galaxy series will likely be included in the triple-foldable phone model as well.
Samsung's new triple-foldable model is expected to be thinner than the Galaxy Z Fold 6. Therefore, it may not feature large camera sensors, but instead will likely have a camera setup similar to that of the Galaxy Z Fold 6. For example, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 camera specs include: 50 MP wide-angle (f/1.8), 10 MP telephoto (f/2.4), and 12 MP ultra-wide (f/2.2).
In conclusion, Samsung's new device aims to offer a top-tier experience in terms of both performance and flexibility and is highly anticipated in the tech world.
