JAKARTA - Samsung's first three-fold smartphone is rumored to be launching in more countries than originally planned. Initially, only China and South Korea were rumored to be the launch market for this device. However, the latest report mentions the opposite.

According to a report from SamMobile, Samsung plans to launch these devices in more countries, including the United Arab Emirates (UAE), and possibly the United States as well.

Initially, it was suspected that Samsung would only launch this device in two main markets, but there seems to be a change in plans. It could be that Samsung is very confident in the quality of this phone so it wants to reach a wider market, or feel pressured by competition from Huawei and other companies. Chances are, the combination of these two factors is the reason.

The device is expected to launch this year, with October 21 being touted as the initial launch time. South Korea is likely to be the first country to qualify.

10 Inci Screens And Superior Specifications

This smartphone is rumored to be equipped with a 10-inch OLED display that can be folded into three parts. The battery is also said to be divided into three parts to support this unique design.

On the camera side, this device is expected to have a triple camera setup on the back, including a 200-megapixel resolution main camera, accompanied by an ultrawide and telephoto lens.

Currently, Huawei is the only company that has launched a three-fold smartphone to the market, with two models namely Huawei Mate XT and Mate XTs. Samsung is expected to be the second company to launch similar devices, possibly by the end of this month.
