Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is still expensive for some and it would make sense if a more affordable version will be available to this market.

There's no way I will ever buy a phone with a folding screen. They are too fragile.

I shared your opinion but the clumsiest friend I know has a current model z flip, and the only issue he's had is with the included screen protector. Dropped it dozens if not hundreds of times.

I'm actually considering a folding phone for my next upgrade in a year or two, but I'll probably wait until more of the trifold phones come out at a lower price

Yes, these trifold phones look amazing. I am upgrading my phone every 4-5 years, and usually try not to overspend on it, so most likely I will skip buying trifold the next upgrade cycle so I guess 2030 the technology would be mature enough and more affordable.
