Samsung leads the foldable smartphone category with its Galaxy Z series. Currently, the company sells two types of foldable phones and both of them have a single hinge. However, there have been reports in the past regarding a tri-fold Galaxy tablet. According to our source, such a device is indeed in development and may launch as soon as next year.

GizmoChina has partnered with tipster Yogesh to bring you fresh information about the upcoming Samsung tri-fold tablet. As per our source, this device will launch as Galaxy Z Fold Tab in Q1 2022.

The previous leak about this product suggested that it will be releasing in 2021. Unfortunately, that will not be the case. However, we may or may not see a teaser for it during the Galaxy Z Fold3 and Galaxy Z Flip3 launch event, which could take place in early August. This is still being debated by Samsung’s marketing team.

Further, the main highlight of the Galaxy Z Fold Tab apart from its tri-folding capability will be support for hybrid S Pen. This stylus will make its debut alongside the Galaxy Z Fold3 in a few months from now. Unfortunately, we do not have any information about this Bluetooth-enabled stylus except that it will be different from the older S Pens.

Lastly, the forthcoming tri-fold tablet will also sport a better UTG (ultra-thin glass) than the current generation. This new thickened reinforced glass will be introduced in the Galaxy Z Fold2 successor. Essentially, the Galaxy Z Fold3 will be a testbed for Samsung’s first folding tablet.

Anyway, the above-mentioned specifics of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Tab stand true only as of the current development cycle. The final product may vary depending on changes undertaken by the engineering team in the next few months before the design is finalized.
