A new rumour online says Samsung plans to diversify its foldable lineup by introducing Ultra variants for the Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip. A tri-folding tablet and a "Galaxy Z Tab" are also in the pipeline, along with new mid-range Galaxy K smartphones and a new high-end Galaxy S Premium variant. https://www.notebookcheck.net/Sketchy-rumour-says-Samsung-has-four-new-foldables-in-the-pipeline-Galaxy-S-Premium-rumoured-to-replace-the-S-Plus-variant.696412.0.html
Not worth it..
I have a z fold 3 for around a year
Suddenly without any trauma, inner screen got black screen of death line on the crease. Definitely not worth it since Samsung doesn't act upon this hardware failure...
I've owned a ZFold2 for almost 3 years. No issues. After 2.5 yrs I was ready to replace the removable screen protectors. I order replacements from Amazon for US$10.
NOT (tri) fold. The 3 panel foldables are BI-FOLDING. 2 hinges.
Durability concerns aside, I'd be interested in a rollable or trifold. Current Foldable phones (all brands) have a horrible media aspect ratio but is good for productivity.

I might jump on the bandwagon after several generations have passed (already happening) and I can get a cheap used/refurb model. Tri-fold could enable a good aspect ratio for video but I haven't sat down to do the math.
Ok, so now we are getting up to a 27 inch phone, how about bringing back the Expansion Slot and the 3.5 mm headphone Jack? I can kind of understand taking out the headphone Jack, but the expansion slot? Come on Samsung, it can't be that hard to incorporate the expansion slot again. I'm posting this on a Samaung Galaxy S9+ because it was the last good phone Samsung has made.
As someone who has both a Note 9 128gb w/ expansion slot and an S21 Ultra (with 512gb/16gb ram), yes the expansion slot would be nice but it's not that expensive to get a higher storage when purchasing your phone. My S21 Ultra doesn't have an expansion slot but I have 512gb storage so who needs it. Also these days, other than photos and videos, most apps are made to not be able to be moved to an SD card.
SAMSUNG is king as far as phones go in my opinion and these are the changes that only bother people who didn't get a larger storage when purchasing their phone.
NEXT TIME GET MORE MEMORY and problem solved.
As far as the headphone jack not bent there, we all know everything is wireless/ bluetooth and it's the future.
