      With a 10-inch screen and a lifespan shorter than most gym memberships, the TriFold has already become legendary in the tech world.

      Samsung has discreetly updated the product page for the Galaxy Z TriFold with a notice: the company's first tri-folding phone is now entirely sold out with no plans for restocking. If you were hoping to purchase one in the future, perhaps when it goes on sale, it may be time to move on.

      "The limited-run Galaxy Z TriFold is now completely sold out," states the updated message on the Galaxy Z TriFold's page. The notice also encourages users to frequently check Samsung’s website for “unique innovations” and to explore other foldable or mobile devices.

      Why did Samsung discontinue it so quickly?

      For those catching up, the TriFold debuted in South Korea in December 2025 and sold out quickly. The US market got its chance in January 2026, with a premium price tag of $2,899. The device features a dual-hinge design that unfolds into a 10-inch Dynamic AMOLED display, making it one of the widest foldables on the market at that time.

      Interestingly, Samsung limited production to between 20,000 and 30,000 units, not just in Korea or the U.S., but worldwide. It was designed primarily as a showcase device rather than a mass-market product intended for millions of units.

      Is a sequel to the TriFold in development?

      By March 2026, Samsung officially stopped producing the TriFold. A final restock was made available on the company's website on April 10, which, as expected, didn't last long.

      Currently, Samsung is directing interested consumers to the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which is its latest book-style foldable (until the Fold 8 launches in July 2026), and the Galaxy S26 Ultra, its most recent flagship device. The company is working on a sequel to the TriFold, but it may not be available until 2027.

      A new iPhone app called Gigs aims to transform how music fans remember live events by compiling their scattered concert memories into a structured, searchable archive. Created by indie developer Hidde van der Ploeg, the app uses artificial intelligence to organize past concert experiences into a personalized digital timeline. The concept is straightforward: instead of allowing ticket stubs, screenshots, and photos to be forgotten across devices, Gigs consolidates them into one location—complete with details, stats, and memories associated with each event.

      Samsung is already reimagining the TriFold, starting with the hinge.

      The original Galaxy Z TriFold barely had time in the market before Samsung discontinued it. Launched on January 30, 2026, as the world’s first mass-market triple-fold smartphone in the U.S., it was discontinued just three months later. Nevertheless, Samsung has not abandoned the concept and is currently working on a sequel, beginning with the hinge design.

      Google’s new desktop mode makes it clear that Samsung DeX was ahead of its time.

      Android 16 finally introduces a viable desktop mode for Pixel phones, but Google's long-awaited development primarily demonstrates that Samsung spent years perfecting the challenging aspects. I have been anticipating Android to take desktop mode seriously for years. Back in 2019, I purchased a OnePlus 7 Pro and spent an embarrassing amount of time trying to force its incomplete desktop mode into something functional. The idea made perfect sense to me even then; phones were already incredibly powerful, and the notion of carrying a legitimate computer in my pocket seemed less like science fiction and more like an overdue common sense.
