Samsung’s long-awaited tri-fold is finally shaping up. Reliable leaker Evan Blass (@evleaks) has confirmed the official name — Galaxy Z TriFold — along with some key specs such as screen size, battery capacity, and thickness.
Samsung is reportedly sticking with the Z-series branding, keeping the TriFold tied to its foldable heritage rather than spinning it off into a new “Galaxy G Fold” category.
According to the tipster, the TriFold will run on a Qualcomm Snapdragon chip. While the leak didn’t mention a specific chipset and there has been some confusion between the Snapdragon 8 Elite and 8 Elite Gen 5, the latter seems more likely given the larger display, focus on multitasking, and a higher price tag than the upcoming Z Fold8, which is also expected to use the 8 Elite Gen 5.
The Z TriFold is also rumored to pack a 200MP main camera, similar to the Fold7. The rated battery capacity, according to this leak, is 5,437mAh. While this number is lower than a recently leaked spec sheet listing 5,600mAh, that figure likely refers to the typical capacity. For those unfamiliar, the rated capacity is a minimum performance guarantee — ensuring the battery will always meet or exceed that number — while typical capacity represents the more common, slightly higher value seen in real-world use.
The cover display is said to measure 6.5 inches with 2,600 nits of peak brightness, while the main 10-inch AMOLED panel inside reportedly hits 1,600 nits. The device is expected to measure between 3.9mm and 4.2mm thick when unfolded. For comparison, Huawei’s Mate XT Ultimate ranges between 3.6mm and 4.8mm.
According to previous leaks, Samsung is planning a limited launch, with 20,000 to 30,000 units heading to Korea and select Asian markets first. No word yet on a global release.
