Samsung fast-tracks Galaxy Z TriFold 2 after Apple's iPhone Duo debut
Samsung is pulling forward its next-generation Galaxy Z TriFold 2 launch after Apple entered the foldable market with the $1,999 iPhone Duo on September 9, with the new device reportedly thinner and lighter while retaining the same $2,899 price tag. Apple launched its first foldable at the Steve Jobs Theater on September 9, opening to a 7.6-inch screen, and Samsung publicly mocked the move on X with posts about reheating leftovers. Apple's first foldable goes on sale October 23, with the company planning a glass-heavy iPhone Pro redesign for 2027.
