Samsung is all set to unveil the Galaxy Z Fold 5 at its upcoming Unpacked event on July 26th in Seoul, Korea.
With just days remaining until the event, it appears that the price of the device in Europe may have been leaked, suggesting a potentially large increase.
A massive price hike for the Galaxy Z Fold 5
According to reports from French outlet Dealabs, Galaxy Z Fold 5 pricing could start at €1,899 (around $2,095) for the 256GB, €100 more than the Galaxy Z Fold 4 launch price in Europe.
If you need more storage, the 512GB variant is rumored to be priced at €2,039 (around $2,249), while the 1TB variant will reportedly cost €2,279 (equivalent to $2,514).
Reports from French outlet Dealabs suggest that the Galaxy Z Fold 5 may be priced at €1,899 ($2,095) for the 256GB model, €100 more than the Galaxy Z Fold 4’s launch price in Europe. The rumored prices for the 512GB variant are €2,039 ($2,249), and for the 1TB variant, it is €2,279 ($2,514).
🔺 Significant price increase
We are looking at a massive price jump if the information is correct. In addition, both the 512GB and 1TB options of the Galaxy Z Fold 4 are getting a price increase of more than €120 in Europe.
It’s important to note that these prices are specific to buyers in France, and other European regions may have different pricing.
Nevertheless, a price increase is expected, at least in Europe. But, it doesn’t come as a total surprise, as in early 2023, Samsung had already launched the Galaxy S23 with an increased price tag; however, the US was the only exception.
The latest leaked specs of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 show that it won’t have many changes this year. This raises questions about whether the price hike is justified.
