The age of triple-fold phones is upon us, with Samsung set to launch its Galaxy Z TriFold in the US soon. If you want to try it before spending what will likely be more than $2,000 on the device, you can do so at seven locations starting today.

Samsung is showing off its 10-inch foldable phone in Experience-branded stores based in California, Minnesota, New York, and Texas.

The locations include two in California: the Los Cerritos Center and The Americana at Brand store in Glendale. It’s also coming to Samsung's Bloomington location in Minnesota. Two New York stores will have the phone available for testing, including Queens Center in Elmhurst and Roosevelt Field in Garden City. The final two stores are both based in Texas, at Stonebriar Centre in Frisco and The Galleria in Houston.

Unlike the brand’s Galaxy XR headset trial sessions, you don’t need to book in advance. The handset will be on display for all customers, but you may encounter a wait.

Samsung says it will be sharing more about a US launch date soon. The company's next big event will reportedly be the Galaxy S26 Unpacked event in late February, so we may get more trifold details then, too, but Samsung hasn't confirmed the date yet.
