Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 to cost as much as the Z Fold2
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 is still pretty far off but info starts to emerge lately. This one, for example, gives some insight into the possible pricing of the handset.
The cited source has an excellent leak track record but warns not to take it as a sure thing yet. The report says that the price of the Z Fold3 will be the same as the Z Fold2 while adding quite a few improvements suggesting a Z Fold3 pricing in the $2,000 ballpark.
Even though it's too early to tell, we can see why Samsung won't lower the price further. Its main goal, for now, is not to make it more affordable but to improve the overall user experience of the form factor. And, of course, Samsung is basically running uncontested in the foldable segment for now so it doesn't need to lower the price to improve its competitiveness.
