- Samsung has shown the Galaxy triple at a technology event in South Korea
- The phone was shown folded and unfolded.
- But it was behind glass, so no one could interact with it.
It looks like Samsung could soon fully unveil its first triple phone (which could be called the Samsung Galaxy TriFold), as the company has taken a step in that direction by showing off the device.
This is our first official look at the Samsung Galaxy triple, with the company, as reported by Chosun (via NotebookCheck), placing the phone in a glass display case at a recent ‘K-Tech Showcase’ in South Korea.
Being in a display case meant no one could interact with the phone, but it has been photographed in both the folded and unfolded states, so we now have a pretty good idea of what it will look like.
According to Chosun, the Samsung Galaxy Triple has a clamshell display that measures around 6.5 inches and extends to around 10 inches when unfolded, which would make it a true phone and tablet all in one.
This isn’t the only sighting we’ve had either, because in addition to these photos, leaker @UniverseIce also shared what appears to be an official render of the phone, giving us a closer look at its screens.
probably coming soon
The fact that Samsung is showing it and the possible existence of official renders point to an imminent presentation, so it is very likely that we will learn more about the Galaxy triple on October 31 or November 1, as previously rumored.
However, if you were hoping to buy it, you may be out of luck as we recently heard that it will probably only be sold in a few Asian countries.
Still, this is an interesting phone. It’s one of the first triple phones (although Huawei already has one in the form of the Mate XT), and it’s the first time Samsung has experimented with a new form factor in quite some time.
It will be interesting to see if there is much appetite for it, but if it works well we wouldn’t be surprised if it receives annual updates, the next of which may be more widely available.
