Samsung Electronics Co. plans to begin selling a so-called trifold smartphone later this year, joining rival Huawei Technologies Co. in exploring a relatively untested market that pushes the boundaries of foldable technology.
Acting mobile and consumer electronics chief TM Roh disclosed the plan Wednesday on the sidelines of the company’s Unpacked event in New York, where Samsung unveiled three foldable smartphones as part of a strategy to reinforce its leadership in the category.
