"The phone was announced along with its select markets' sale dates at the close of 2025. We didn't have price information for Samsung's domestic market at that time, and even though we were anticipating the Galaxy Z Trifold to cost a bundle, the actual cost is more absurd than we'd guessed. In reality, getting your hands on this slim triple-screen smartphone will run you $2,900."
"Putting aside the ludicrous expense, this smartphone is pretty dang cool. After his hands-on experience with the phone at CES 2026, Engadget senior writer Sam Rutherford had overall positive things to say about the device, despite it demanding some tradeoffs in bulk. To borrow his own phrase: "I kind of hate how much I like the Galaxy Z TriFold." Maybe as this cutting edge design becomes easier to manufacture, prices will eventually drop into the realm of reality for the average consumer."
Samsung's Galaxy Z Trifold launches in the US on January 30 with a 512GB model available only in black and priced at $2,900. The device features a slim triple-screen foldable design that combines smartphone and tablet functionality. Early hands-on impressions praised the device's capabilities and design while noting tradeoffs in added bulk. Manufacturing complexity likely drives the high price, which may fall if production becomes easier. The device may appeal to buyers who want one device instead of a separate phone and tablet, though the steep price will limit accessibility for average consumers.
