TL;DR

• Samsung’s rumored “Wide Fold” is reportedly set to feature a tablet-like 4:3 inner display.
• The device could closely resemble Apple’s rumored foldable iPhone in terms of size and shape.
• Unlike the tall Galaxy Z Fold 7, this model would prioritize stability and easier reading.
• Samsung is expected to launch it alongside its usual Fold, expanding its foldable lineup to three devices next year.
• The Wide Fold is also expected to feature 25W wireless charging.

Samsung isn’t done experimenting with foldable form factors. After launching the Galaxy Z TriFold, rumor has it that the company is working on another foldable phone design, a wide one to counter Apple’s upcoming foldable iPhone. Now, a new report from South Korea’s ETNews has revealed more details about this new Samsung foldable and how it might compare to Apple’s competing device.
