Igeekphone News, October 30th: Technology media Wccftech published a blog post yesterday (October 29th), reporting that Samsung’s first triple-foldable phone, Galaxy Z TriFold, is approximately 12 to 15 millimeters thick in the folded state and has a large screen of nearly 10 inches when unfolded.
In terms of thickness, the Galaxy Z TriFold is approximately 12 to 15 millimeters thick when fully folded. Igeekphone Note: The only similar competitor of this device, Huawei Mate XT, is 12.8mm in the triple-fold state, with the thinnest part being 3.6mm when unfolded, and is between 4.75mm and 7.45mm in the double-fold state.
One of the highlights of the Huawei Mate XT’s ability to achieve such a thin and light design lies in its adoption of a 5600mAh silicon-carbon anode battery. The media pointed out that based on the thickness of the Galaxy Z TriFold, it is speculated that the Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold also adopts a similar silicon-carbon battery, with three built-in batteries and a total capacity of over 5000mAh.
The reason why silicon-carbon batteries have become the key to ultra-thin devices lies in the breakthrough of their technical principles. Compared with traditional lithium batteries, the negative electrode of silicon-carbon batteries can accommodate up to ten times the number of lithium ions, thereby significantly increasing the battery capacity in the same volume.
Meanwhile, to address the issue of silicon anodes being prone to expansion and cracking during charging and discharging, this technology also introduces anti-fracture carbon nanostructures as buffers, ensuring the stability and long lifespan of the battery.
In terms of imaging, the Samsung Galaxy Z TriFold may be equipped with a 200-megapixel (200MP) main camera and support 100x zoom function. The performance core is expected to be equipped with Qualcomm’s next-generation flagship chip, the fifth-generation Snapdragon 8 Ultra, and will be complemented by a robust titanium alloy casing.
