Rumors are circulating about the potential prices of the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, and they may not be as bad as they seem at first glance. While unofficial and subject to change, leaked price points from a European retailer suggest that the Fan Edition flip phone could come in at around €865 in Europe and £738 in the UK, which translates to approximately $1,000. However, once taxes are added, the cost could rise to almost €1,050 and £890, or $1,200.
While these prices may sound steep, especially considering the base model only offers 128GB of storage, it's important to compare them to the cost of other foldable devices. For instance, the standard Galaxy Z Flip 7 was rumored to be priced as high as €1,425 and £1,200 for a 512GB variant. Additionally, last year's Z Flip 6 was released at £1,050 and up in the UK and €1,120 in Europe for a 256GB model.
Despite the potential pricing for the Z Flip 7 FE, it's still expected to be more affordable than its predecessors, offering a budget-friendly option for those interested in a foldable device. With rumored specs including an Exynos 2400 processor, a dual rear camera setup, and 4,000mAh battery capacity, the Fan Edition could provide a compelling alternative to the high-end foldable market.
