Samsung makes some of the best foldables, with the Galaxy Z Fold 7 delivering plenty of upgrades. Samsung controls a sizeable chunk of this category thanks to its strong presence in the U.S., and seeing as how its immediate rivals don't sell in the region, it is unchallenged.
That isn't the case globally, and Huawei and Vivo are making positive moves with their own foldables. The Vivo X Fold 5 is one of my favorite devices of 2025, and the Huawei Mate XT is arguably the most innovative phone around. Having used the tri-folding device over the course of 2025, I'm excited to see Samsung make its debut in this category.
