The device is expected to feature an impressive <strong>9.96-inch display<\/strong>, which is nearly 30% larger than the <strong>7.6-inch screen<\/strong> on the Galaxy Z Fold 6. When folded, the device will reportedly measure <strong>6.54 inches<\/strong>, making it comparable in height to conventional smartphones. It\u2019s said to have a weight similar to Huawei\u2019s <strong>Mate XT<\/strong>, though it may be slightly thicker due to its inward-folding design.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>What sets the <strong>Galaxy G Fold<\/strong> apart from Samsung\u2019s previous foldable devices is the rumored <strong>G-shaped folding mechanism<\/strong>, where both sides of the screen fold inward. This design is expected to offer better protection, as it keeps the display hidden when closed, unlike the Huawei <strong>Mate XT<\/strong>, which features an S-shaped fold that leaves part of the screen exposed.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>To further enhance durability, Samsung is said to be developing a new type of display and protective film specifically for this device. Given the complex manufacturing involved, production volumes are expected to be limited, and the <strong>Galaxy G Fold<\/strong> may be positioned as an experimental, high-end offering rather than a mainstream flagship.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.batteriesglobal.co.uk\/smartphone-battery\/Samsung\/EB-BA156ABY\/1746199\">&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;Samsung Galaxy A15 4G A155F &#8211; Battery EB-BA156ABY 5000mAh<\/a><\/p>\n\n\n\n<h4>Launch Timeline and Pricing Expectations<\/h4>\n\n\n\n<p>Although earlier reports suggested a 2026 launch, display analyst <strong>Ross Young<\/strong> has indicated that Samsung might release the Galaxy G Fold sooner, potentially in <strong>late 2025<\/strong>, alongside the <strong>Galaxy Z Fold 7<\/strong> and <strong>Z Flip 7<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>As for the pricing, it&#8217;s still unclear. However, given that Huawei\u2019s <strong>Mate XT<\/strong> launched at nearly <strong>$2,800<\/strong>, the <strong>Galaxy G Fold<\/strong> is expected to carry a premium price tag, likely exceeding <strong>$2,000<\/strong>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><a href=\"https:\/\/www.batteriesglobal.co.uk\/smartphone-battery\/Samsung\/EB-BS711ABY\/1746188\">&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;&gt;Samsung Galaxy S23 &#8211; Battery EB-BS711ABY 4500mAh<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Samsung teased its upcoming tri-fold smartphone during the Galaxy S25 Unpacked event, offering only a silhouette of the device.
