Samsung’s record breaking; Galaxy Z TriFold sold out in a few minutes

Samsung once again demonstrated its power in the foldable smartphone market and set an amazing sales record in the history of its products with the official launch of its latest engineering masterpiece, the Galaxy Z TriFold. This smartphone, which was officially introduced last week, went on sale today in South Korea, and despite the very high price, all its stock was sold out in a short period of time. Korean users welcomed this product to such an extent that only a few minutes after the opening of sales, the shelves were empty and many buyers returned home empty-handed.

This particular phone has been launched with a price tag of 3,590,400 South Korean Won, which is equivalent to around 2,428 USD at the current exchange rate. Although the Galaxy Z TriFold is the first generation of Samsung’s tri-fold phones, and users are usually cautious about buying the first generation of new technology, reports indicate that long and tight lines were formed in front of Samsung stores across South Korea. Published images show that technology enthusiasts have been waiting for hours to get this innovative gadget.

Samsung has yet to provide exact figures on the number of units sold on the first day, and it is unclear exactly how many units were delivered to customers. However, due to the rapid depletion of stock, the company has activated an option on its official website in South Korea so that interested parties can register to be notified when the device is available again. This level of demand for a $2,400 phone reflects the market’s appetite for new and different form factors.

In terms of specifications, the Galaxy Z TriFold currently only comes in one powerful configuration with 16GB of RAM and 512GB of storage. Also, the color considered for this model is a special black called “Crafted Black”, which gives the device a luxurious look. Samsung has confirmed that the release of this product will not be limited to Korea and in the near future, users in the markets of China, Taiwan, Singapore, the United Arab Emirates and the United States will also be able to purchase it; However, an exact date for the global release has not yet been announced.
