"Holding the Z Trifold confirmed my suspicions: it's a tablet with a phone attached. And after spending an hour folding and unfolding it, I'm pretty much ready to trade in the single-hinge foldable I've been carrying for the past couple of weeks. I used the Google Pixel 10 Pro Fold over the holidays as my daily driver and I can probably count on one hand the number of times I unfolded it."
"You know the deal with the Trifold: it's out in Korea but not officially on sale in the US yet. It has two hinges that close inward, unlike Huawei's dual folding phone. It'll be available in the US sometime in the first quarter of this year. The price isn't known yet but I think we can safely say it will land roughly at "hella expensive," given that the single-hinged Z Fold 7 costs $2000."
The Z Trifold combines a tablet-sized interior with a phone-like exterior, effectively functioning as a tablet with an attached phone. The device uses two inward-closing hinges and feels springy, sometimes flipping open to the fully open position when nudged. Closing sequence matters: the left panel should fold down first to avoid a strong haptic buzz and an inner-screen notification. The external cover screen is long and narrow, fitting in roomy pockets but likely awkward in tighter clothing. Availability begins in Korea now and in the US in the first quarter, with price expected to be very high (likely above $2000).
