Samsung's Galaxy Z Trifold Sees Rapid Sellouts Across Global Markets

(MENAFN- AsiaNet News)

Samsung Electronics Co.'s Galaxy Z TriFold is experiencing rapid sellouts across global markets as consumer demand for the dual-folding smartphone exceeds initial industry expectations. The device, which officially launched earlier this month, has consistently exhausted available stock in both domestic and international retail channels.

Global Market Success

According to a report by Pulse, the English service of Maeil Business News Korea, the Galaxy Z TriFold initially debuted in five markets: South Korea, the United Arab Emirates (UAE), Singapore, Taiwan, and China. Major online shopping platforms in the UAE, Singapore, and Taiwan reported that the first batches of the device sold out within hours of pre-orders opening. In China, where daily sales volumes remain capped, available units continue to sell out on a daily basis.

The domestic market in South Korea shows similar momentum. All units designated for the December 12 launch day sold out immediately. A subsequent restock on December 17 was also exhausted, with industry reports noting that restocked units vanished in just two minutes. Samsung Electronics scheduled a third restock for the Korean market in January to meet the continued interest.

Innovative Design and Features

The Galaxy Z TriFold features a dual-folding form factor that expands to a 10-inch display when fully unfolded. Despite its screen size, the device measures 12.9 millimeters thick when folded, making it the thinnest design in the Galaxy Fold series to date.

Positive Reception and Market Outlook

"Although initial reactions questioned whether the device would be too large or expensive, consumer response has been stronger than expected, with positive reviews spreading across social media and online communities," the report quoted industry officials.

Samsung Electronics intends to utilize this momentum as the global foldable smartphone market continues to expand. According to the report, worldwide foldable phone shipments will rise approximately 10 per cent next year to reach 20.6 million units. While the smartphone has not yet been officially released in the United States, reports indicate that interest in pre-orders within that region is rising.
