Samsung's foldable lineup might get bigger than expected at Unpacked
TL;DR According to a new leak, Samsung could launch its triple-folding phone at Unpacked.
However, the device is only expected to become available in October.
The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 could also witness a longer-than-usual pre-order period.
Samsung's next Unpacked event is set for July 9, and while all eyes are on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, a leak from Setsuna Digital on Weibo hints at a surprise announcement. It looks like Samsung might also unveil its long-rumored triple-folding phone at Unpacked.
According to the leaker, the triple-fold device is expected to be announced in July but won't hit shelves until October. Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 are only expected to ship out in August, suggesting a prolonged pre‑order period for buyers.

Setsuna Digital also recently shared pretty believable specs for the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, some of which have also been corroborated by previous leaks and reveals. But, as with all leaks, this new information about Samsung's triple-folding phone and the availability details of the new Galaxy Z Fold and Flip should be taken with a pinch of salt.
It's also important to note that we've seen multiple leaked renders of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Fold 7 courtesy of reliable leakers, and not one of them has leaked the triple-folding phone yet. Either Samsung is doing a great job of keeping it under wraps, or the phone might not get a full launch at Unpacked. It's possible Samsung will merely give us a glimpse of the device, setting the stage for a launch later this year.
What we know about Samsung's triple-folding phone
Samsung
Rumours about Samsung's ambitious triple‑screen 'G Fold' have been circulating for months. A report previously claimed that the device could feature two inward‑folding hinges, offering a 9.96‑inch main display and a 6.49‑inch external screen, with no stylus support due to the lack of a digitizer.
Leaks also suggest Samsung's triple-fold could get a titanium and aluminum frame, support 16GB of RAM, and likely run on a Snapdragon chipset. Insider information also notes Samsung may initially produce only about 200,000 units, with a limited first‑wave rollout, matching the approach taken with the Galaxy Z Fold SE.
If this latest leak pans out, Samsung's Unpacked event on July 9 could reveal four foldables: the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Z Flip 7, Z Flip 7 FE, and the so-called Galaxy G Fold. That said, the triple‑fold will likely be niche and pricey, something that shows off Samsung's engineering prowess, but a device that very few will actually be able to afford.

Cars Are Caught in an Endless Cycle of Bigger Screens Nobody Really Likes
J.D. Power released the results of its 2025 Initial Quality Study on Thursday, and—surprise, surprise—the number one reported problem area industry-wide is infotainment. While the systems themselves are becoming more visually impressive and they're better-integrated into the overall design of most vehicles than early attempts, customers complain more about these systems than they do anything else in their brand-new cars. In short, customers love the way these big screens look, but virtually all of them are a pain to operate. So why the heck does every new car introduction come with a bigger, more feature-bloated touchscreen? Well, it's complicated. But as usual, it all comes down to money. The 'why' makes more sense if you consider the broader industry push to re-brand the traditional (spits) infotainment system as an all-in-one control center. Functions that were once tied to physical controls on the dash and center console have been steadily migrating into this space. Headlight toggles, home garage door controls, and even glove box releases are now making their way into vehicular touchscreen interfaces, in many instances joining basic audio and climate controls that were moved there years ago. Automakers sell it as a way to free up space on the dash and center console. For what? So far, the answer has mostly been 'more screens.' One might call that a lateral move. With all the extra room, you'd think they'd be able to keep up with America's fancy cup obsession. And given the positive feedback automakers have received for the more-minimalist interior designs that often result, the effort hasn't entirely been for naught. Plus, centralized touchscreen control systems save automakers money, especially when implemented in cars with a broad selection of available doodads. While software development isn't free, it's far more forgiving than designing, prototyping, testing, sourcing and maintaining a supply of physical control components. An infotainment module may cost more than a switch, but you'd be surprised how quickly that math changes when one switch becomes five—or fifty. But in designing for this internal convenience, automakers are taking a gamble that their buyers will learn to live with the resulting compromises. What's often left unsaid is the fact that we're increasingly running the risk that a failed infotainment system could effectively 'brick' a car completely. And eliminating those physical controls doesn't eliminate the need for them, forcing automakers to add new infotainment menus, tiles, and pages—and in some cases, entirely new screens—that its customers must then navigate. This clutter annoys critics and customers alike. 'Owners find these things to be overly complicated and too distracting to use while driving,' said J.D. Power's Frank Hanley, senior director of auto benchmarking. 'By retaining dedicated physical controls for some of these interactions, automakers can alleviate pain points and simplify the overall customer experience.' But even as some automakers pledge to bring buttons back, there's no reason to expect they will come at the expense of established display real estate. Even if customers are frustrated by the experience offered by their large displays, they still enjoy looking at them, and as those screens get bigger and bigger and take over space that was once reserved for other features, those features will have to go somewhere. Right? With each generation, more features are incorporated into the screen. To avoid excessive menus, the screens get bigger to accommodate those new functions. It's an endless cycle fueled equally by feature bloat and the desire to cut potentially redundant physical components—which equate to finding ways to charge more money for less car. And then there's the unspoken financial opportunity presented by a more robust digital infrastructure. Unless you've been living under a rock your entire life, you know by now that a screen is always at risk of becoming a new avenue by which somebody can sell you something. New features? Maintenance plans? Subscription services? Those are all tough to sell through a button. Just ask GM. So as you read the next car reveal, and you peruse the interior section to see what inconveniences await its new buyers, remember that a bigger screen does three things: it sells new cars to wide-eyed customers, saves the automaker a ton of money on components, and it offers the tantalizing possibility of future revenue streams. Nope, these screens aren't going anywhere. Do you also like to yell at clouds? Commiserate with the author at byron@

If You'd Invested $1,000 in IonQ Stock 3 Years Ago, Here's How Much You'd Have Today
IonQ is a leader in quantum computing, providing investors with substantial growth potential. After its public debut in 2021, IonQ captivated investor excitement as a pure play in quantum computing, soaring 70.2% in its first month of trading. While IonQ stock still has exciting growth potential, only investors comfortable with a higher degree of risk should consider it as a possible addition to their portfolios. 10 stocks we like better than IonQ › Helping to pave the way forward to a quantum computing future, IonQ (NYSE: IONQ) shines brightly on the radars of investors looking for tech stocks with explosive growth potential. Over the past six months, however, investors have felt more motivated to move the stock out of the portfolios. IonQ stock has dipped more than 4% as of June 26. But is the story the same when expanding the time frame beyond the past six months to the past three years? Let's take a look at whether investors who clicked the buy button and continued to hold IonQ stock are looking at growth in their investments -- and, if so, to what degree. Hitting the ground running when it hit the public markets on Oct. 1, 2021, IonQ zipped 70.2% higher in its first month as a public company. Since IonQ was the only pure-play quantum computing stock available at the time, those who were both familiar with the industry and interested in gaining exposure to the burgeoning industry leapt at the opportunity to buy shares after IonQ completed its combination with a special purpose acquisition company. It's not as if the market's appetite for IonQ has waned very much, as the company continues to progress in the field of quantum computing. Consequently, those who purchased $1,000 in stock three years ago have seen their positions grow to $8,047 as of the end of trading on June 26. Since quantum computing is still in the nascent stages of its development, it's unfair to conclude that the company's greatest growth is behind it. Of course, since the company is still unprofitable, those considering a position should be comfortable with an investment that has a higher degree of risk.
