Adding another flap: The Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold

Being a pioneering company to venture into folding smartphones and garner mainstream attention, Samsung has recently unveiled its latest innovation – the Galaxy Z TriFold. Picture 3 phones placed side-by-side, with up to 120Hz refresh rate and up to 1,600 nits on the expansive display.

Unfolding to just 3.9mm at its thinnest point, users can expect flagship performance through the customised Snapdragon® 8 Elite Mobile Platform, alongside 200MP camera and Samsung’s biggest battery ever in a foldable phone – at 5,600 mAh.

Keeping it sturdy

Containing an expansive 10-inch display when unfolded twice, the engineering of the mechanism is essential for the stability of the product. Two different sized hinges with a dual-rail structure work in unison to create a smoother, more stable fold despite varying weight and components across the device.

The frame of the device is supported by Advanced Armor Aluminum – a high-strength alloy to add rigidity while keeping the device slender.Atop of sturdy components, the device contains an auto-alarm to alert the user of incorrect folding through a series of on-screen alerts and vibrations.

Precision at its finest

Given the delicate process, CT scanning of the flexible printed circuit board verifies that it has been correctly manufactured according to the design, ensuring accuracy and reliability before bonding it together with the other internal display components.

Laser scanning verifies that all internal components are mounted precisely at their intended height, securing surface quality.

The precision also extends to software optimisation – optimising the large 10-inch display. Taking an architect for example (which would be thrilled over the large screen), she could use three applications at the same time to review blueprints, write a proposal, and calculate measurements in a single multi-window workspace.

The Taskbar at the bottom right of the display instantly resurfaces recently used apps, bringing the full setup back into view with a single tap. Apps with large details have also been optimised for a large screen, letting users organise and understand insights at a glance.

Samsung DeX integration

The Galaxy Z TriFold is the first mobile phone to have standalone Samsung DeX available on-device so users can set up a full working environment from virtually anywhere – supporting up to four workspaces that can each run five apps simultaneously.

On top of supporting work-life balance, users can add a secondary screen in Extended Mode, which enables a seamless dual-screen experience with an external monitor.

Maximising performance with Ai features

Taking advantage of the large screen, features like Photo Assist including Generative Edit and Sketch to Image adapt to Galaxy AI flexibly with impressive scale, allowing users to capture and create with Samsung’s most versatile creative platform.

Atop of Galaxy AI, Gemini Live offers a multimodal AI solution – Seamlessly type or speak contextual questions and get answers without having to switch between apps for high level multitasking.

For instance, take full advantage of the AI on a large screen: show it a room, a shopping site and paint swatches for custom recommendations.
