Samsung plans to release five new foldable devices next year, including two wide foldables, the Galaxy Z Fold9 Ultra, Galaxy Z Flip9, and a revived Galaxy Z Tri Fold. Insiders reveal the Galaxy Z Fold8’s success drove a 1 million unit production increase. The Z Flip FE is discontinued, possibly due to demand or memory costs.

The Z Fold8 features a 4:3 aspect ratio, ideal for photos and documents, while the upcoming wide foldable targets 21:9 video viewing. The Z Fold9 Ultra has a near-square display. The Z Tri Fold, previously experimental, may return with broader availability but likely at a premium price.

Samsung’s focus on foldables continues despite challenges. The Z Flip FE’s exit contrasts with the Z Flip9’s return. Details on the second wide foldable remain scarce, though its cinematic 21:9 ratio suggests niche appeal. Pricing for 2024 models isn’t confirmed yet.
