Samsung could double down on foldables in 2027 with five new reported models
Samsung's foldable lineup could nearly double in 2027, according to a new leak, with two separate wide-format Fold models joining an Ultra, a Flip, and a TriFold.
Samsung reportedly plans to double down on foldable smartphones in 2027, with a leak suggesting the company will launch five new models in a single launch cycle. This would nearly double the number of foldables offered this year, which currently includes three models. The Korean tech giant aims to cater to the popularity of wide-format foldable designs, which have proven to be a hit with consumers.
Two of the five models may share a passport-shaped wide-format design, succeeding the Galaxy Z Fold 8. Additionally, a new Galaxy Z Fold 9 Ultra, the successor to the Fold 8 Ultra, could be introduced, featuring a tall and narrow cover screen. The company may also unveil the Galaxy Z Flip 9 and a second-generation Galaxy Z TriFold, offering buyers a variety of shapes to choose from.
The timing of the launch aligns with the current production surge of Samsung's foldable devices and the upcoming launch of Apple's foldable iPhone. According to the leak, OnePlus is also preparing its next flagship phone, the OnePlus 16, with a focus on display technology.
