Samsung launches Galaxy Z TriFold in UAE, marking new era for foldable innovation

Limited-edition device debuts in only five countries worldwide, reinforcing the UAE’s position as a global hub for early technology adoption 

Dubai Samsung Gulf Electronics today announced the UAE launch of the Galaxy Z TriFold, the company’s most ambitious foldable device to date and the next evolution in Samsung’s long-term foldables roadmap. Designed to go beyond the traditional smartphone experience, the Galaxy Z TriFold introduces a new form factor that expands mobile productivity, creativity and entertainment, reinforcing the UAE’s role as a strategic market for early innovation adoption. 

The device was first unveiled to UAE consumers at a special showcase in Dubai Mall on December 2, coinciding with the UAE’s National Day celebrations and adding a cultural and symbolic layer to the launch.  

 With limited availability across only five countries globally, the UAE is among a select group receiving early access to the Galaxy Z TriFold. This positioning reflects the market’s strong appetite for high-end innovation, its influential tech-forward audience, and Samsung’s continued commitment to bringing next-generation devices to the UAE first. 

The device  was sold out in the UAE within minutes following its launch, reflecting strong demand for Samsung’s most ambitious foldable device to date and the next evolution in the company’s long-term foldables roadmap. The UAE’s early access reinforces the market’s position as a hub for early technology adoption and premium innovation.   

Designed to go beyond the traditional smartphone experience, Galaxy Z TriFold unfolds into a large 10-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, enabling a more immersive workspace and entertainment experience while maintaining a sleek, pocketable form when closed. Built for users who want a device that adapts to their lifestyle, it brings together flagship-grade performance with a tri-folding structure that supports seamless switching between phone use, larger-screen creation, and multi-window productivity. 

The device combines Snapdragon® 8 Elite for Galaxy and a 200 MP camera system, alongside Samsung’s largest foldable battery to date, and a newly engineered hinge system supported by a reinforced Armor Aluminum frame and titanium hinge housing for multi-fold durability. Galaxy AI is optimized for the expanded display, enabling multitasking and creative workflows through features such as multi-window layouts, standalone Samsung DeX, and tools like Photo Assist, Generative Edit, Sketch to Image and Gemini Live. 

Fadi Abu Shamat, Vice President and Head of Mobile eXperience Division at Samsung Gulf Electronics, said: “The Galaxy Z TriFold marks an important milestone in Samsung’s foldables journey. It unlocks a new level of versatility, creativity and productivity, built for users who want a device that truly adapts to their lifestyle.”

“The UAE has consistently embraced our most advanced technologies early, and launching the Galaxy Z TriFold here reflects our long-standing commitment to bringing breakthrough innovation to a market that leads the region in digital adoption.”
