Samsung is rumored to be preparing a 3-device foldables launch in 2026, with the new element a passport-style model rather than another tri-fold variant.
That push would broaden a lineup Samsung has refined since 2019, after years of thinning its book-style Fold series to 8.9mm on the Fold7 and expanding the Flip line with larger outer displays and lower-cost options.
The strategy follows strong interest in the late-2025 Galaxy Z TriFold, which Samsung said saw scarce availability and heavy demand before production reportedly stopped just 3 months after launch.
A wider release for the passport device would mark a shift from the tri-fold's limited rollout as Samsung tests whether new form factors can push foldables further into the mainstream.
