Samsung is now selling its $2,899 Galaxy Z TriFold in the US

Update: It seems Samsung has already run out of Galaxy Z TriFold stock, likely due to a combination of high demand and limited units. No word on when Samsung plans to have another sale, but we will let you know once we hear anything.

Original story follows:

The wait is over. Starting today, Samsung foldable fans in the US have a new ultra-premium option. The Galaxy Z TriFold, Samsung’s first dual-hinged phone-tablet hybrid, is officially on sale in the US.

You can buy it from Samsung Experience Stores or directly from Samsung’s online shop. The price is simple and steep: $2,899, which is $900 more than the single-hinged Galaxy Z Fold 7.

There are no choices to make, either. The Galaxy Z TriFold comes in one configuration only — 512GB of storage, finished in Crafted Black. No variants, no upsells.

There’s also no pre-order phase. Samsung announced US availability just days ago, allowed fans to sign up for updates, and then skipped straight to retail. The TriFold goes on sale today, first come, first served, with no official word on how many units are headed to the US.

That matters, because the phone has already sold out multiple times in Korea. Samsung is manufacturing it in limited quantities, as it's reportedly losing money on each unit sold. If you’re a US foldable enthusiast and you actually want one, waiting might not be the smartest move.

As for why Samsung is selling a phone it’s reportedly losing money on, the answer is simple. The Galaxy Z TriFold isn’t about margins. It’s a technical flex, kind of like a halo car, designed to underline Samsung’s foldable leadership and put a spotlight on the foldable Galaxy portfolio.
