Samsung is set to unveil its innovative tri-fold smartphone by the end of 2025, expanding its foldable lineup. Recent leaks indicate that the device will be part of the Galaxy Z series, potentially named the Galaxy Z TriFold.
The decision is aligned with Samsung’s strategy to maintain consistent branding for its premium foldable devices. Reports from GalaxyClub reveal that Samsung has filed a trademark for “Galaxy Z TriFold” in South Korea, although it’s unclear whether this refers specifically to the phone itself or a new sub-lineup.

GalaxyClub’s findings reveal the device’s model number as SM-F968N and internal codename Q7M. While the name Galaxy Z TriFold lacks the catchiness of models like Galaxy Z Fold or Flip, it emphasises the tri-folding mechanism. SamMobile and GalaxyClub note that Samsung often registers names to block competitors, so the final title remains uncertain. GSMArena speculates Samsung prefers sticking with “Galaxy Z” over alternatives like “Galaxy G Fold” to leverage the series’ popularity.

The tri-fold design promises a larger screen when unfolded, ideal for multitasking and media consumption. Samsung’s focus on this technology follows its dominance in foldables, with the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Flip6 leading the market share. Analysts expect the tri-fold to target premium users seeking cutting-edge innovation.
Samsung’s tri-fold phone under the Galaxy Z branding signals bold advancements in foldables. As leaks continue, anticipation builds for its official reveal.
