- Samsung has been working for more than a year to bring foldable handsets to market that revolutionize the idea of how people use their smartphones.
- Following the less-than-ideal launch in 2019 of the original Galaxy Fold, new rumors have emerged suggesting a more affordable successor to the Galaxy Fold could be coming soon, along with additional foldable models.

Not even a global pandemic can apparently dim Samsung’s fascination with foldability as a smartphone form factor — nor the South Korean tech giant’s ambition to make such foldable phones, if not a mainstream product, at least a more familiar sight in the world.
We’d already heard, for example, that the successor to the Galaxy Fold will include a base model with 256GB of internal storage at a lower price point than any of the original Fold models. That should, at least theoretically, make these phones with novel designs unfamiliar to most consumers perhaps a more attractive buy. Meanwhile, a tipster is reporting that Samsung may actually be planning to release three new foldable smartphones, two of which would feature plastic panels like last year’s OG Galaxy Fold while the third would come with the Galaxy Z Flip’s ultra-thin foldable glass.
