The Galaxy Fold is about to ship, for real this time. Samsung has spent several months solving problems that arose during the Preliminary Assessment Program, but the phone will still cost you nearly $ 2,000. Of course, this is not a sum of money that most people are willing to pay for a phone right now. Of course, we thought that there was not so long about 1,000 phones. Still, Samsung would work on a cheaper variant of Fold.

According to SamMobile, Samsung's next cheapest foldable phone is model number SM-F700F. The existing Galaxy Fold is the SM-F900F, which suggests that both devices will share many features. The only detail that SamMobile gets from its source is that the new Fold will have 256GB of storage, half the cost of Fold.

With a $ 2,000 price tag for the Fold "premium", a budget template could still be very expensive. Although the no-tap phones of Samsung are already getting a high price. The Galaxy Note 10+ starts at $ 1,100, and you're north of $ 1,300 if you want the 5G version. Maybe Samsung will get some traction if it manages to bring down the price of Fold by several hundred. Of course, this assumes that it does not break after a day of use. Crossed fingers.
