Samsung is expected to deliver the Galaxy G Fold later this year as its first tri-fold smartphone. In the meantime, its display subsidiary has brought a new version of the Flex G to MWC 2025 in Barcelona with an updated design and less noticeable display creases than previous iterations.

Samsung is expected to deliver its answer to the Huawei Mate XT later this year, which has now reached Europe for €3,499 (~$3,672). For context, the so-called G Fold is not expected to launch alongside replacements for the Galaxy Z Flip6 and Galaxy Z Fold6 (curr. $1,519 on Amazon). Instead, the device is believed to be on track for a late 2025 release, possibly only a few months before the debut of the Galaxy S26 series.

In the meantime, Samsung Display has showcased a new version of the Flex G, upon which the Galaxy G Fold is said to be based. The latest Flex G looks far more mature than it has been in previous iterations, with bezels and display creases that are more befitting of a retail unit. On top of that, Samsung Display has exhibited the Flex G this time running what appears to be One UI, as well as the Samsung Gallery app and YouTube.

Potentially, this offers a glimpse into one of Samsung's new multitasking features, which will require re-working to make the most of a wider canvas than the Galaxy Z Fold series currently provides. The panel shown may well underpin Samsung's first mass-produced tri-fold too, given its proximity to a rumoured release date. The Flex G's overall design is unlikely to make it past the concept stage though, since it lacks any rear-facing cameras or any cover display to speak of.
