Samsung to launch innovative dual-folding phone in 2025
Samsung is a global leader in terms of display innovations. The company’s foldable phones are available internationally. Samsung isn’t stopping at foldable dominance and is reportedly exploring an innovative dual-folding phone that could launch in 2025.
ETNews reported that Samsung could launch a dual-folding phone in 2025. The company has reportedly started developing the new form factor product, with the design decision could be taken by the end of November.
Sources citing ETNews claimed that the South Korean tech giant has recently added a dual-folding foldable phone to its development lineup, and the partner companies have also started development tasks.
Recently, Huawei introduced the world’s first tri-fold smartphone. Practically, the phone can be folded and unfolded twice, double that of the Z Fold 6. The first unfold offers a tablet-sized screen while the second unfold offers a laptop-size screen.
In addition, the report says that Samsung’s dual-folding phone is designed to fold inward twice. The unfolded (maximum) screen size is said to be around 9 to 10 inches, which could be merely 2 inches larger than the Z Fold Special Edition.
Significant changes are expected in Samsung’s foldable lineup next year. With the addition of a dual-folding phone, Samsung’s Galaxy Z lineup could become more diverse. This year, Samsung launched the Z Fold SE for the first time with a slim design.
Samsung hinted at the emergence of a new foldable form factor in its third-quarter earnings announcement. A Samsung executive, said, “We are preparing new form factors for consumers who want a more powerful and innovative mobile experience, and we plan to introduce products to the market when we ensure satisfactory quality and experience in real-world customer usage.”

During the Q3 earnings call, Samsung confirmed the Galaxy S25 series will be released in the first half of the next year. However, the company hasn’t revealed when it will hold the launch event for the upcoming flagship phones.
Here’s what Korean media believe
Samsung could hold a Galaxy Unpacked event on January 23, 2025. The outlet referred to the date for Korean time, and it will be different in other markets. In most countries, the launch date could fall on January 22, including the US.
It is said that the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra will be unveiled. Samsung is also speeding up its work on the Galaxy S25 Slim. The company is aiming to introduce four models of Galaxy S25 together, adding the Slim variant.

Samsung Galaxy A26 first look revealed with new camera design
Samsung Galaxy A26 may feature the Galaxy A36-like brand-new camera design. The phone’s first look has now been revealed in the first set of CAD renders, courtesy of Onleaks via AndroidHeadlines.
The phone could be flat on the front and rear sides. Samsung could apply a revamped camera design on the Galaxy A26, featuring a Z Fold 6-like camera island. The Key Island is expanding to lower-end Galaxy A models for a unique identity.
Samsung is sticking to the outdated display approach with a waterdrop notch at the top. The Galaxy A35 5G upgraded with a modern punch-hole display last year. However, the A26 continues to sport the waterdrop notch display, for another year.
Notably, the bottom bezel is considerably thicker than the rest sides. The rear panel carries three cameras at the top-left corner which are aligned vertically. The new Key Island is there on the volume rockers and power key.
The Galaxy A26 could measure 164 x 77.5 x 7.7mm (9.7mm including the camera bump). That said, the display could be 6.64 inches (in diagonal) and we expect it to be a Super AMOLED panel with at least a 90Hz refresh rate.
Samsung will likely stick to a plastic frame and a plastic backplate. The SIM tray will be accessible from the top-left side of the frame. The bottom side will have a Type-C port for charging, a primary microphone, and a speaker grille.
