Cheaper Galaxy Fold Smartphone In The Works
Samsung has also indicated it could be developing more affordable foldable smartphones in the coming days. The report suggests that the company is considering ways to lower entry barriers to allow more customers to experience foldable products. Previously, Samsung was said to be working on a more affordable version of the Galaxy Z Fold 6.
However, the company ultimately launched a sleeker version of its latest foldable with slightly larger displays in its home market. As per a report from Tom’s Guide, Samsung might also move away from its “Galaxy” branding for all its products. Citing E-Today, the report stated that Samsung is contemplating a rebrand of its flagship smartphones with a non-Galaxy name.
During the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) 2024, Samsung’s head of global marketing, Lee Young-hee, mentioned, "Galaxy has so many lineups that I know people are expecting a new name when there is an innovative turning point." As of now, Samsung brands its premium smartphones under the Galaxy S and Galaxy Z series, while it also has the Galaxy A, M, and F series for other segments.

Samsung Could Launch Triple-Screen Foldable Phone In 2025
Huawei swept headlines when it unveiled the Mate XT earlier this year. This might be the beginning of the dual-folding triple-screen phones, although it’s currently limited to China. So, when will other brands release their own commercial devices?
Well, ZDNet Korea (via SammyGuru) reports that Samsung is planning to release a triple-screen foldable phone next year. And it seems like the pieces are in place for mass production.
“Samsung Display’s partners have also completed the development of parts for the trifold model and are already ready for commercialization,” an industry insider was quoted as saying by the outlet. “Of course, the final release of the product depends on the decision of Samsung Electronics’ MX division, so we will have to watch the trend a little more closely.”
