Samsung’s Budget Foldable Phone: A Game-Changer at Under $800?

Rumors are swirling that Samsung may soon release a more affordable foldable phone, potentially priced below the flagship Galaxy S24. This move could shake up the foldable smartphone market, currently dominated by premium, high-priced devices.

According to a report from Korean outlet SisaJournal-e (via PhoneArena), Samsung’s “entry-level foldable phone model is estimated to be less than $800.”

While foldable phones offer innovative design and functionality, their high price tags have limited their widespread adoption. A sub-$800 foldable from Samsung could attract a whole new segment of consumers interested in the technology but deterred by the cost.

To achieve such a competitive price point, Samsung will likely make some trade-offs in features. Speculations include a slightly less powerful processor, less premium display materials, or a less advanced camera system compared to its flagship foldables.

A budget-friendly Samsung foldable could intensify competition in the emerging foldable market. Other manufacturers might follow suit, offering more affordable options. This could drive innovation and accelerate the accessibility of foldable phones to a broader audience.
