It is not known whether Samsung’s dual-fold smartphone works exactly like the Huawei Mate XT. Should it be so, Would the Z-fold mechanism fit the name Galaxy Z Fold for the first time.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 (test) has a recommended retail price of 1,999 euros. A Dual-fold smartphone could quickly go towards 3,000 euros and more. Even the Huawei Mate XT costs the equivalent of over 2,500 euros in China. It won’t be cheap either.

Samsung needs a new driving force

After the two models, a double foldable smartphone would definitely generate enthusiasm and interest again. Samsung also needs this because, according to the source, delivery figures for foldable displays are falling significantly this year. From 20 million in 2023 to just 12 million in 2024. Deliveries from another manufacturer are also included there. Samsung alone installed 8 million of them itself. In 2023 there were still 10 million. It also needs another highlight, and that could be a dual-fold smartphone for Samsung.
