- Another Samsung tri-fold leak has appeared
- It shows the inward-folding mechanism of the phone
- We could see it unveiled later this month
We’ve been patiently waiting for the Samsung tri-fold phone to get its official unveiling ever since it was teased back in January, but it seems that the wait might soon be over – and a new leak hints at how the foldable mechanism is going to work.
The leak is in the form of a video animation hidden in One UI 8, posted by @TechHighest (via 9to5Google). The same source has previously posted other graphics of the tri-fold, showing off its design and mentioning some of its key features.
This latest leak apparently confirms the inward-folding, U-shaped design of the tri-fold, which differs from the S-shape design adopted by the Huawei Mate XT – where part of the main display acts as the outer display when the handset is closed.
With a U-shaped design, there’s a cover display in addition to the main display, as there is on a conventional book-style foldable like the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7. In the leaked video we’ve got here, we can see how the form factor works when taking a selfie.
What we think we know so far

We’ve been hearing that the Samsung tri-fold would differ from the Huawei flagship in this regard for almost a year now, so this latest leak is no surprise – but it’s the most convincing evidence we’ve seen yet of how the foldable will work.
There have been plenty of other rumors around this much-anticipated device too of course. A titanium frame, 16GB of RAM, and a Snapdragon chipset are apparently all going to be involved, and it’s likely that you’ll have to pay quite a bit to get one.
We’re expecting some multi-tasking upgrades for One UI 8 specifically for this foldable, and its main screen is apparently going to measure a considerable 10 inches from corner to corner. We might also see some upgraded battery tech included.
The rumors are that the phone will be announced on Monday, September 29, though it may not be available to buy until November – with some reports suggesting it’s only going to go on sale in South Korea and China.
