If you haven’t yet shelled out nearly $3,000 for a Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold, you might have missed your chance. The company is winding down sales of the phone after it’s been on the market in the US for less than two months, Bloomberg reported Tuesday.
Samsung will begin the phase-out by first ending sales in its home market of South Korea, and will then stop selling the phone in the US after all inventory has been depleted, Bloomberg said, citing a company spokesperson. In the US, the only way to buy a TriFold is on the Samsung website or at one of its seven Experience Stores across the country.
Samsung didn’t immediately respond to a request for comment.

A quick check on the Samsung website did not show any TriFold phones for sale, although Bloomberg said people have reported being able to buy the phone over the past few days at Experience Stores in Frisco, Texas, and Queens, New York. On a Galaxy Z TriFold subreddit, some customers have reported being able to get their hands on one.
The Galaxy Z TriFold was announced on Dec. 1, 2025, made its debut in South Korea on Dec. 12 and went on sale in the US on Jan. 30. The phone has a 6.5-inch cover screen and two hinges that enable it to be unfurled into a 10-inch main screen. The sale price is $2,899.
We liked the Galaxy Z TriFold when it was unveiled earlier this year in the US, and apparently so did many Americans — it sold out in minutes on its first day in the US.
Senior Writer Abrar Al-Heeti spent two weeks with the foldable and called it “versatile, innovative and practical,” although ultimately a niche device that’s “not for everyone.”
Will the phone return? Bloomberg reported that Won-Joon Choi, chief operating officer of Samsung’s Mobile Experience Business, said in an interview last month that the company had not decided yet if it will bring the device — or an updated version — to a wider market.
