Samsung Halts Sale of Galaxy Z TriFold After Just 3 Months
Samsung stops Galaxy Z TriFold production after just three months due to high $2,899 price and low demand for tri-fold devices, industry sources said.
- According to reports from Korean outlet Donga earlier this week, Samsung will cease production and end domestic sales of the Galaxy TriFold today.
- High production costs and the niche nature of the TriFold format limited its market reach compared to the Samsung Galaxy S25, which sold around 20.2 million units in the first half of last year.
- Samsung produced the devices in small batches to monitor demand, aiming to avoid unsold inventory, while the Galaxy launch was the "strongest launch ever for a Z Fold device."
- Sales will continue until the current supply of TriFold phones runs out, according to a Samsung spokesperson, but once these units are gone, customers cannot purchase new devices directly from Samsung.
- Samsung appears to be prioritizing high-performing products over niche models, making a future sequel unlikely in the near term, though the company has not confirmed whether the series has a long-term future.
