Samsung’s latest earnings call has revealed a major hint about their upcoming tri-fold smartphone, the Galaxy G Fold. The company hinted at a new device with advanced design, focusing on portability and performance, and featuring enhanced Galaxy AI capabilities. This marks a significant development since Samsung last introduced a completely redesigned smartphone with the Galaxy Z Flip in 2020.
The Galaxy G Fold is expected to feature a massive 9.9-inch screen, a significant upgrade from the 7.6-inch screen of the Galaxy Z Fold6. This tri-fold design aims to provide a large-screen experience, potentially setting it apart from competitors. The device’s existence was hinted at during Samsung’s Q1 2025 earnings call, where the company mentioned a forthcoming smartphone with cutting-edge design.
Potential Release and Availability
There’s a strong possibility that the Galaxy G Fold will be unveiled alongside the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7 in July 2025. However, reports suggest it might not be released globally. The GSM Association’s database has listed two model numbers for the Galaxy G Fold: SM-F968N and SM-F9680. The ‘N’ in SM-F968N indicates a potential release in South Korea, while the ‘0’ in SM-F9680 suggests a possible launch in China.
This information implies that Samsung might initially release the Galaxy G Fold in China and South Korea before considering other markets. The exact release strategy remains unclear, but the company’s focus on innovative design and enhanced user experience is evident.
