YouTuber showcases Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold features in early hands-on video
Samsung finally presented the Galaxy Z TriFold after months of speculation about how its first tri-foldable had taken shape. Rivalling the Huawei Mate XT and Mate XTs, the Galaxy Z TriFold will reach select markets next week with a circa ~$2,400 launch price in South Korea (KRW 3,590,5400). In the meantime, Yasuhiro Yamane has provided a hands-on look at the Galaxy Z TriFold before it goes on sale.
Ultimately, the first few seconds of the video emphasise just how closely the device resembles the Galaxy Z Fold7 in its folded state. However, beneath the 6.5-inch cover display lies a circa 10-inch panel that provides significantly more real estate than the 8-inch equivalent inside the Galaxy Z Fold7 (curr. $1,529 on Amazon).
Apparently, the Galaxy Z TriFold feels relatively light when unfolded despite its 309 g weight. Likewise, a 3.9 mm thickness makes the device considerably thinner than equivalently sized tablets, too. Setting aside the terrible auto-dubbing, the video highlights some multitasking features specific to the Galaxy Z TriFold.
For instance, Samsung allows the device to run three apps side-by-side. Also, switching between Samsung DeX and One UI modes seems seamless. With that being said, the Galaxy Z TriFold retains One UI's other foldable multitasking features like running two apps in smaller windows next to one that occupies half of its foldable display. Please see the video below for more details.
