Based on a video report from The Elec, Jukanlosreve suggested that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 might drop the built-in S Pen digitizer, which could result in a slimmer design but require an S Pen that needs charging.

While the foldable market hasn’t grown as quickly as expected, Samsung remains committed with rumours pointing to the release of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Fold 7.  Joining the lineup is the Galaxy Z Flip FE, a more affordable flip-style foldable aimed at attracting new customers to Samsung’s foldable ecosystem.

The most exciting addition is Samsung’s rumoured “tri-fold” device.

Unlike the Galaxy Z Fold series, this new foldable will feature two hinges resulting in a larger display that measures between 9.9 and 10 inches when fully opened, which makes it significantly bigger than the Galaxy Z Fold 6’s 7.6-inch screen.

Set to launch in Q3 2025 alongside the other foldables, Samsung reportedly plans to produce only 200,000 units of this innovative device suggesting it’s more of an experimental product rather than a mass-market release.

The figure of 200,000 units is limited to the Triple Fold and represents the quantity to be produced over the course of a year.

Though Samsung has been rumoured to be working on a “tri-fold” foldable for years, Huawei beat them to the market with its Mate XT last year.

In the meantime, Samsung is preparing for the launch of the Galaxy S25 this week, with reservations now open and added discounts available ahead of the event.
