    A new benchmark for Samsung and other manufacturers.
    And hopefully, the trifold should become more affordable once we go past the prototype phase!
    USD2,000 is insane for a TV let alone a pocket phone that will become obsolete after a few years!

      @@NextNate03 yes lol. And time after time again, they prove to be more niche, than useful. First it’s one fold, then it’s two, and now three? What’s next 4? ????????????

    After owning a Z-Flip. The creases were the source of failure. I replaced it after a year with a new phone under warranty. The replacement phone when died the same death after 1 year. The crease in the folding screen is the Achilles heel.

    Seems like they may as well call it the first quad folding phone, too.

    Considering it only has two hinges and only folds twice. They might as well keep making up other things it does.

    @CNET I am glad to hear that Samsung may be launching a tri-folding smartphone in 2025. Because if Samsung’s phone is even remotely close to how Huawei made theirs, I am sold.
