Samsung's take on tri-folding technology is still a secret, but it won't be too different from the Huawei Mate XT Ultimate. This means that Samsung's tri-folding phone will have a horizontally long screen that folds twice.
Patents previously filed by Samsung reveal a new hinge mechanism for greater flexibility in the device, while improved sensor integration will allow the device to detect changes in its shape to optimize the interface. Samsung may use the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite chip on the device, which can deliver a 40 percent improvement in GPU performance and up to 35 percent ray tracing compared to the current Galaxy Z Fold 6's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.
According to the report, Samsung has reduced orders for foldable OLED panels by more than 10 percent due to slow demand for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6, which bring fewer upgrades than their previous generations. Samsung Display will ship about 12 million panels in 2024, down 40 percent from last year's 20 million shipments. These shipments are for Samsung's own devices as well as foldable phones from Xiaomi, Vivo and Oppo.
