Samsung will (probably!) present its new Galaxy S25 range tomorrow, Wednesday January 22, but the rumors have already moved on to something else: folding ones! The manufacturer should launch no less than four new models, including a smartphone that folds into three.
A smartphone with one fold is good, but a smartphone with two folds is even better. The site The Elecwho has good sources at Samsungannounces that the manufacturer would like to launch such a device in the third quarter – this summer. Production would be limited to a batch of 200,000 units, due to a particularly steep price.
Folding in all directions
This is of course not the first time that indiscretions have announced a Samsung smartphone that bends over backwards. The Korean manufacturer, which brought the folding market to the baptismal font, was grilled by Huawei in this very specific segment with the Mate XT. A very intriguing (and overpriced) device which mainly serves as a technical demonstration.

Samsung would, however, go in a different direction than that of Huawei, since the two hinges would fold inwards, hiding a large screen of around ten inches. The model would actually resemble the prototype shown by the company during MWC 2023 (below). The Mate XT has a hinge that folds inwards and another towards the outside.
-This “tri-fold” would obviously not be the only folding smartphone that Samsung would unveil this summer, as the company has become accustomed to for several years. In the group’s bag, there would also be, unsurprisingly, the seventh generation of the Galaxy Z Fold and the Z Flip, as well as a more mysterious Galaxy Z Flip SE. Last October, the manufacturer launched a special edition of the Galaxy Z Fold (but not Flip).
