Samsung Electronics is discontinuing its Galaxy Z TriFold just three months after launch, halting sales in South Korea and the US. The $2,899 device, designed as a tech showcase, faced high production costs and low profitability. Samsung confirmed no successor is planned, though a new “Wide Fold” device may launch later in 2026.
In a rare move, Samsung is winding down sales of its Galaxy Z TriFold smartphone barely three months after it hit shelve. This is an unusually swift exit for a flagship device from one of the world's largest phone makers.
Samsung Electronics will begin by halting sales in its home market of South Korea, and will discontinue the device in the United States once it clears remaining inventory, a company spokesperson confirmed to Bloomberg. Samsung's website has already stopped teasing future restocks, now simply listing the phone as 'sold out' and directing buyers to purchase it in person at Samsung Experience Stores.
The Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold launched in the US in January 2026 at a price of $2,899. It was Samsung's first smartphone to fold twice, featuring a 10-inch display when opened and a 6.5-inch cover screen when closed, and housing a 5,600 mAh three-cell battery system.
The device was never made available in India. As of early March 2026, there was no news of an India launch, and with the discontinuation now confirmed, Indian consumers will not get an opportunity to buy the phone through official channels.
