As we have <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Samsung-reveals-date-for-next-ultra-premium-foldable-release-amid-ongoing-tri-fold-rumours.1128939.0.html\" target=\"_self\" class=\"internal-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">covered separately<\/a>, this mid-October launch event will likely cover the W26 series. Based on past generations, the series will likely include more elaborate-looking versions of the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Compact-Flip-phone-loses-ground-Samsung-Galaxy-Z-Flip7-review.1102761.0.html\" target=\"_self\" class=\"internal-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Galaxy Z Flip7<\/a> and <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/The-market-leader-strikes-back-Samsung-Galaxy-Z-Fold7-review.1093384.0.html\" target=\"_self\" class=\"internal-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">Galaxy Z Fold7<\/a> <a href=\"https:\/\/www.amazon.com\/Samsung-Smartphone-Unlocked-Manufacturer-Warranty\/dp\/B0F7JZXMQ7?tag=nbcnewsnet-20\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"sponsored nofollow noopener\" class=\"external-link-new-window\">(curr. $1,766 on Amazon)<\/a> rather than the company&#8217;s long-rumoured tri-foldable smartphone.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">Nonetheless, it seems that the latter may not be far behind. In fact, the so-called Galaxy Z TriFold could emerge before the end of October after months of leaks and rumours. Incidentally, numerous animations emerged <a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Samsung-Galaxy-Z-TriFold-could-surpass-Galaxy-Z-Fold7-with-major-multitasking-and-camera-upgrades.1127094.0.html\" target=\"_self\" class=\"internal-link\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">a few days ago<\/a> highlighting various multitasking and productivity features that could be exclusive to the device.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">According to reports in South Korean media, Samsung intends to showcase the so-called Galaxy Z TriFold during the next Asia-Pacific Economic Cooperation Forum (APEC) annual meeting. Scheduled between October 31 and November 1, this year&#8217;s meeting will only be the second hosted in South Korea since APEC&#8217;s establishment in 1989.<\/p>\n<p class=\"bodytext\">Typically, showcasing a new smartphone during a meeting of heads of government seems improbable. However, South Korean media stresses that Samsung and its partners consider the Galaxy Z TriFold a culmination of the country&#8217;s technological innovations rather than a mere smartphone release. At this stage, Samsung <a href=\"https:\/\/edition.cnn.com\/2025\/09\/18\/tech\/samsung-trifold-phone-galaxy-s26-edge\" target=\"_blank\" class=\"external-link-new-window\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\">is expected<\/a> to present the Galaxy Z TriFold in the US too, unlike last year&#8217;s Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition.<\/p>\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Notebookcheck-Team.212978.0.html?&amp;tx_nbc2journalist_pi1%5Bmode%5D=show&amp;tx_nbc2journalist_pi1%5Buid%5D=278\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/csm_alex_alderson_photo_98f8faaa46.jpg\" loading=\"lazy\" width=\"120\" height=\"120\" alt=\"Alex Alderson\"\/><\/a><a href=\"https:\/\/www.notebookcheck.net\/Notebookcheck-Team.212978.0.html?&amp;tx_nbc2journalist_pi1%5Bmode%5D=show&amp;tx_nbc2journalist_pi1%5Buid%5D=278\" class=\"j_name\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Alex Alderson<\/a> &#8211; Senior Tech Writer  &#8211; 13353 articles published on Notebookcheck since 2018<\/p>\n<p>Prior to writing and translating for Notebookcheck, I worked for various companies including Apple and Neowin.
