Samsung’s trifold flagship Z TriFold may cost around ₹2.64 lakh (~$3,000). Read full specs, expected launch timeline, India availability and how it compares to Huawei’s Mate XTs.
Samsung is reportedly preparing its boldest foldable yet: the Z TriFold, a trifold smartphone that could push foldable pricing into new territory at around $3,000 (≈ ₹2,64,000). If the leaks hold true, the TriFold will mark Samsung’s first serious entry into the trifold form factor, putting it in direct competition with Huawei’s Mate XTs and raising fresh questions about foldable adoption and premium pricing.

According to early reports, the Z TriFold will feature a large 10-inch OLED inner display that folds in two places and an outer cover screen of approximately 6.5 inches, offering a more conventional smartphone experience when folded. The device is expected to borrow camera hardware from Samsung’s flagship line — including a 200MP main sensor alongside ultrawide and telephoto modules — and run on Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chipset for top-tier performance. Leaks also suggest a novel battery design split across three cells, engineered to fit the complex folding mechanism and manage heat and uptime for the large displays. Hindustan Times
Price rumours put the Z TriFold at roughly $3,000, translating to about ₹2.64 lakh — a figure that has grabbed headlines because it makes the phone costlier than many mid-range motorcycles in India. This level of pricing would place Samsung’s trifold above Huawei’s Mate XTs (which launched around the ₹2.2 lakh mark in China) and position the Z TriFold as the most premium foldable on the market if confirmed. For buyers hunting “best foldable phone 2025” or comparing “Samsung trifold vs Huawei Mate XTs,” this price and the 10-inch display would be decisive factors. Hindustan Times
Launch timing is still uncertain. The device was expected earlier but reports now point to a possible unveiling by the end of the month, with initial supply likely focused on Samsung’s innovation hubs — South Korea and China — and a wider rollout possibly including the UAE and other premium markets. India has not been confirmed, but given Samsung’s growing focus on premium devices in the region, an India launch remains likely in subsequent waves. Readers searching “will Samsung Z TriFold launch in India 2025” or “Samsung Z TriFold India release date” should watch official Samsung channels for confirmation. Hindustan Times
Beyond raw specs and price, the Z TriFold signals Samsung’s strategy to expand foldable categories — from clamshells to larger foldables and now trifold designs. For consumers, this means more choices but also higher price brackets. If you’re a potential buyer, consider whether you need the extra screen real estate for productivity, gaming or media; compare camera samples against Galaxy S25 Ultra lineage; and weigh long-term software support and durability — key queries like “is the Z TriFold durable” and “how does the trifold hinge hold up” will dominate discussion once hands-on reviews arrive.
For editors and bloggers, the streaming interest spike around this phone will reward timely coverage: hands-on reviews, hinge durability tests, battery life benchmarks, camera shootouts and price-comparison pieces (e.g., “Samsung Z TriFold vs Mate XTs: which foldable is worth ₹2.6 lakh?”) will attract both broad and niche search traffic. In short, if Samsung confirms the Z TriFold at the rumored ₹2.64 lakh price, it will redefine the premium foldable segment and spark a new wave of comparison searches and buyer deliberations.
