Samsung's New Galaxy Z-Range Redefines What Foldable Phones Can Do
Samsung expanded its foldable lineup to three models and raised prices as Apple nears its first foldable iPhone, according to CNBC.
- On Wednesday, Samsung unveiled three new foldable smartphones in London, expanding its Galaxy Z lineup as the company aims to reaffirm its dominance ahead of Apple's anticipated entry later this year.
- Samsung adopted a wider screen format for its Fold portfolio to preempt Apple's rumored wide-screen foldable iPhone design, a strategic move analysts say reflects competitive anticipation.
- The Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra starts at $2,099, the Z Fold8 at $1,899, and the Z Flip8 at $1,199, with all devices running Android 17 and supporting Galaxy AI features.
- Both the Fold8 Ultra and Flip8 carry price tags $100 higher than predecessors, reflecting surging memory chip costs tied to AI-sector demand that Apple also cited when raising prices last month.
- Attention now turns to Apple's September event, where analysts expect the company will "legitimise it for the mainstream," forcing Samsung to defend the category it created rather than play it safe.
