Samsung is ending sales of its Galaxy Z TriFold smartphone after just three months on the market, 9to5Google reported. The device, Samsung's most ambitious foldable phone, failed to generate sufficient consumer demand to justify continued production. The TriFold featured a screen that folded twice to create a tablet-sized display. Priced above $2,000, it appealed to a narrow segment of early adopters. The discontinuation raises questions about the viability of increasingly complex foldable phone designs.
