Samsung announced on Tuesday that its Galaxy Z TriFold smartphone will go on sale January 30 with a steep price tag of $2,899. The phone’s display unfolds twice to reveal a 10-inch display, which is the largest screen ever on a Galaxy phone.
It measures 3.9 millimeters at its thinnest point and is engineered to withstand up to 200,000 folds over its lifetime. The phone will come in black with 512GB of storage in the U.S.
The phone carries a higher price tag than any other smartphone on the U.S. market, surpassing even a fully loaded iPhone 17 Pro Max with 2TB of storage and Samsung’s own $2,000 Galaxy Z Fold.
The Galaxy Z TriFold will be available throughout the U.S. at Samsung Experience Stores and Samsung.com. Notably, it won’t be available through mobile carriers.
The phone is the first foldable of its kind to be available in the U.S., as Huawei’s trifold Mate XT isn’t sold in the U.S. It’s worth noting that Apple is rumored to be releasing its first folding phone later this year.
