Ever since Samsung revealed its plan for its first foldable, there have been rumours about its launch — when and where it will be better released. A new leak reveals more about the Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold, and while it doesn’t seem like good news, it isn’t bad news either.
The popular tipster, Evan Blass, has once again shared more details about the Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold on X. The leak suggests that the company will limit its availability and will only release the TriFold in selected regions, specifically South Korea, China, Taiwan, Singapore, and possibly the UAE.
Unfortunately for foldable enthusiasts — and despite recent rumors to the contrary — I think it’s very unlikely that Samsung will release its first trifold beyond Korea, the greater Chinese market (including Singapore & Taiwan), & possibly the UAE. I’d love to be wrong, though. — Evan Blass (@evleaks) October 26, 2025
The news is not confirmed yet as the tipster says it’s very unlikely for the Samsung Galaxy TriFold to be sold outside these regions. Since the accuracy of the leak is uncertain, there is still hope that countries like the US and the UK may see a launch.
The leak about the Galaxy Z TriFold not being open to the global market seems plausible. A trifold phone is a new phone form in the Western market. If the Samsung Galaxy TriFold is launched in the US, it will be the first trifold phone in the region. Since it’s a new phone form factor in the US market, Samsung won’t know if there will be much demand for it, especially since it’s quite expensive.
It’s logical for the company to limit the availability of the trifold phone and monitor the sales. If it performs well enough, there might even be a follow-up mode with wider availability.
It Might Be A Blessing In Disguise
For consumers who hoped to buy the Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold, it might be disappointing to hear the news, but there’s a bright side. In another post, the tipster, Blass , suggests that like the first Samsung Galaxy Fold, the Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold might be unpolished and come with flaws. Waiting for the next trifold will be better because Samsung must have made improvements based on user feedback.
Even then, it’s not certain that the company will launch a follow-up model or that it will get a wider availability than the original Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold.
Until the leak is confirmed, we can still keep our hopes for the Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold going global. The trifold is expected to launch on October 31 or November 1, so our wait will soon come to an end.

iPhone had big expectations for its first slim phone. With all the hype about it, the iPhone Air promised a better experience. The company wasn’t the only one to think this way. Following the iPhone Air debut, Samsung launched the ultra-slim Galaxy S25 Edge as a reply. Results have shown otherwise.
The iPhone Air hasn’t exactly been a success in terms of sales. A report from Nikkei Asia , confirmed by NotebookCheck , suggests that the orders for it have dropped to end of production levels. Investing shares the results from research done by KeyBanc Capital Markets on the phone. It reveals that there is no consumer demand for the iPhone Air. That shows how bad the situation is. With the way things turned out for the iPhone Air, there might not be another phone in the slim phone lineup.
Slim doesn’t equal better
There are a lot of drawbacks to the iPhone Air. It costs more than the base iPhone 17 and doesn’t even match its performance.
Compared to the iPhone 17 series which has two and three rear cameras, the iPhone Air just has one rear camera. Its slimness sacrifices battery life. The iPhones are not particularly your best bet when it comes to batteries, but the slim iPhone Air performs even worse than other standard iPhones.
Consumers don’t see why they should leave their thicker phones that serve them well for thinner ones that don’t offer equal or better performance. Then there’s also the fear of it snapping. Putting on a phone case only defeats the aim of its design. Using it without one risks getting snapped easily. Most consumers can’t get past that.
