Samsung may unveil 'tri-fold' device at Galaxy Z 7 series launch on July 9
Samsung is set to release its next-generation foldable smartphones on July 9 at the Galaxy Unpacked. Reportedly, the South Korean electronics maker will unveil its 'tri-fold' device at the event, too. The said device, likely to be called Galaxy G Fold, will not launch alongside the Z Series foldable models, but is planned for release in October this year. As for the models set to launch on July 9, an alleged image of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 has been shared on X (formerly Twitter) by a user named Evan Blass. The image reveal slim design and thickness of the camera module. According to a report by 9To5Google, Samsung will preview the Galaxy G Fold in less than two weeks from now, but launch it later in October. This is a strategy that Samsung has used with the Galaxy S25 Edge. The company unveiled the Edge series at the launch event of its flagship S25 series smartphones, but launched it later in May. Date: July 9, 2025 Venue: Brooklyn, New York, US Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7: What to expect Evan Blass (@evleaks) has shared an alleged image of the Galaxy Z Fold 7. The photo shows the phone partially unfolded, with a close-up view that highlights the button layout. Through the picture, it is evident that the upcoming foldable smartphone is going to be significantly slimmer than its predecessor. In a June 10 blog post, Samsung described its upcoming foldable device as 'thinner, lighter, and more durable than the last.' Additionally, the camera setup doesn't look as slim as it was expected to be. Furthermore, it seems like the under-display camera is gone. Instead, there's a hole-punch selfie camera on the inner screen again. It's placed in the same spot — halfway down one side of the display — and looks about the same size. What's worth noting is that this is the first time since the Galaxy Z Fold 2 that Samsung has brought back a hole-punch camera on a Fold model. Starting from the Z Fold 3, Samsung has been using under-display cameras. Previously, Samsung confirmed that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is built with user needs in mind, featuring tighter integration of Galaxy AI within the software to offer a more agentic experience. The company also emphasised that AI won't just power standalone apps and tools but will increasingly shape the entire user interface, saying, 'AI will become UI.' Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 Ultra: What to expect Samsung has previously previewed the Ultra variant with a slimmer foldable design. In a blog post, the company said: 'For years, Samsung has listened to users asking for bigger screens, better cameras, and new ways to connect and create… That's why Galaxy's next chapter is to provide an experience that seamlessly blends artistry and engineering.' The Ultra is expected to feature voice-enabled AI controls, a suite of Galaxy AI tools, and deeper system-wide AI integration, mirroring the S24 Ultra's capabilities in a foldable form. Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7: What to expect Samsung is expected to equip the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 7 with its own Exynos 2500 processor, potentially replacing the Snapdragon chips used in previous foldables. This move reflects the company's existing dual-chip strategy seen in the Galaxy S series. While the camera setup may remain unchanged, performance enhancements are anticipated through the ProVisual Engine. The Flip 7 could also feature a larger 4-inch cover display, updated case designs, and OLED panels using blue phosphorescent materials to improve power efficiency and reduce the screen crease. Samsung has kicked off its pre-reservation programme for the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold, Galaxy Z Flip, and the latest Galaxy Watch series ahead of official launch on July 9. Customers can pay a token amount of Rs 1,999 to get early access to the new devices, along with exclusive benefits worth up to Rs 5,999 on purchase.

Samsung Galaxy tri-foldable's RAM and processor leak
*Header image is referential and showcases the Huawei Mate XT. | Image credit — Huawei Samsung has been working on a tri-foldable Galaxy smartphone, according to many reports, which is said to be named the Galaxy G Fold. This phone, slated for release later this year barring unforeseen hurdles, will apparently feature 16 GB of RAM and only have a Snapdragon variant. The Galaxy S25 Ultra only had a 16 GB variant in certain markets. | Video credit — Samsung Samsung's Galaxy S25 series continued the trend of shipping with 12 GB of RAM, even though the Galaxy S21 Ultra had 16 GB of RAM years ago. But there are now reports claiming that the Galaxy S26 will have 16 GB of RAM as an Galaxy G Fold tri-foldable may beat the S26 line to the punch, however. A reliable source has 'confirmed' that the phone will have 16 GB of RAM as standard. "Tri-Fold Confirmed News"No UDC (Under Display Camera)Better Durability Thanks to "Titanium + Aluminium" Snapdragon Only 16GB RAM — PandaFlash (@PandaFlashPro) June 24, 2025 Samsung's decision to use only a Snapdragon processor isn't too surprising, either. The Galaxy G Fold is likely going to see a very limited release in only a select few regions. If the reports of these regions being just Korea and China are true, then Samsung will pull all the to the Galaxy Z Fold 6 SE, the G Fold will boast the strongest hardware that Samsung can get its hands on. This is crucial because competition from domestic brands in China is stronger than ever, and Samsung needs to stand out. The Galaxy G Fold will compete directly with the Huawei Mate XT. | Video credit — Huawei Samsung has allegedly decided to subdue its sales expectations for the tri-foldable. This is because this phone is going to cost a lot, and the foldable industry is already not doing so great. Some reports have said that the company will only produce 200,000 units for the initial Galaxy G Fold may eventually see a global release, but that depends heavily on how it performs at launch. If, like the Fold and Flip lines, it fails to meet sales expectations, then Samsung may decide to hold off on an international launch. At least until a more affordable successor can be made. It's direct rival — the Huawei Mate XT — also saw a limited and expensive launch. However, that phone sold over 400,000 units and is reportedly getting a sequel this year. I think that there is a lot that Samsung can do for innovation. Most tech enthusiasts, and perhaps even average consumers, might agree that they would rather see larger batteries and faster charging. However, Samsung continues to innovate in the wrong Galaxy tri-foldable will have disappointing battery specs, including very slow charging speeds. Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 is also said to be equipped with the same 4,400 mAh battery as its predecessor: the Galaxy Z Fold 6 . And then, this year, Samsung introduced a new flagship model, the Galaxy S25 Edge. A super slim phone, it packs a 3,900 mAh battery and costs around the same as a Galaxy S25 Ultra . In other news, the Galaxy S25 Edge isn't selling well, and Samsung has begun to cut down on its production. I, personally, would have much preferred a slightly thicker phone with a bigger battery pack. Or, a phone that is the same thickness as a Galaxy S24 Ultra, but comes with a higher-density battery. Unfortunately, both Samsung and Apple are innovating in aspects that most consumers don't care about. Hence, I think we can all see where the iPhone 17 Air is headed.

Samsung Galaxy triple-fold is launching soon with sleek design, but all eyes will be on battery
Samsung's next big foldable leap is just around the corner, and this time, it folds twice. After years of teasing and patents, the company is finally gearing up to launch its first tri-fold smartphone, likely to be called the Galaxy G Fold. But while the promise of a larger, more versatile screen has fans buzzing, early details suggest that one crucial feature could hold it back: the battery and charging speed. Despite being touted as a high-end innovation, the Galaxy G Fold may only support 25W charging, a speed that's not just behind rivals like Huawei, but even Samsung's own mid-range phones. And for a device expected to power a nearly 10-inch display and a complex triple-fold mechanism, that could be a serious triple-fold's battery details leakedThe latest revelation comes via China's 3C certification database, where a device with the model number SM-F9680 — believed to be the tri-fold Galaxy — recently appeared. The listing confirms support for 25W wired charging using the EP-TA800 charger, a standard Samsung adapter that's been around for context, Huawei's competing Mate XT Ultimate tri-fold phone offers 66W fast charging, while even the Samsung Galaxy A56 (review) — a mid-range model — supports 45W. The tri-fold G Fold, however, seems to be sticking with the same old 25W limit found on previous Galaxy Fold devices, including the upcoming Z Fold 7. With a larger display to power and more internal components to manage, this could affect usability, especially for users expecting top-tier performance and all-day battery life. Samsung has historically been cautious with high-wattage charging, prioritising battery longevity over speed, but in 2025, that may no longer cut Galaxy G Fold: What to expect? advertisementThat said, the Galaxy G Fold isn't short on ambition. According to prominent leaker Digital Chat Station, the phone will feature a 9.96-inch display when fully unfolded, just shy of the 10.2-inch screen on Huawei's Mate XT. It's expected to use a dual inner-folding design, folding inward from both sides, which should provide added protection for the main display when closed. The form factor also hints at possible S Pen support, as some patent filings show space for a stylus, further blurring the line between tablet and smartphone. This could make the G Fold a powerful device for productivity, digital art, or media consumption, assuming it has the battery life to support Samsung typically launches its foldables globally, reports suggest the Galaxy G Fold might initially be limited to select regions like China and South Korea. Given the high cost and complexity of production, this restrained rollout makes sense, especially if Samsung is using this first generation as a proof of concept rather than a mass-market said, if the response is strong, the company could consider expanding availability in 2026. For now, however, it looks like global buyers might have to wait or Galaxy G Fold: Expected priceadvertisementSamsung Galaxy G Fold won't come cheap. With industry insiders pegging its likely price between $3,000 and $3,500 (roughly Rs 2.56–2.99 lakh), this foldable will sit well above premium devices like the Galaxy S25 Ultra or Apple's iPhone 15 Pro that cost, it's clearly aimed at early adopters, tech enthusiasts, and professionals, not your everyday smartphone buyer. In fact, it may be more of a technology showcase than a product built for mass appeal, much like the original Galaxy Fold was back in 2019.
