Following the recent leak about the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6’s price hike, new information reveals that the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip6 will also see a $100 increase across all storage options compared to its predecessor, the Flip5.
Pricing Details
The Galaxy Z Flip6 will be available in two variants in the US:
- 256GB Model: $1,099.99
- 512GB Model: $1,219.99
Color Options and Specifications
The Galaxy Z Flip6 will come in four colors: Mint, Silver Shadow, Yellow, and Blue. Here are some of its key specifications:
- Weight: 187g (same as the Flip5)
- Main Display: 6.7 inches
Launch Promotions
Like the Fold6, the Flip6 is expected to offer several launch promotions to offset the price increase:
- Free Storage Upgrade: Likely available upon launch, allowing customers to get the 512GB model for the price of the 256GB model ($1,099.99).
- Trade-in Deals: Anticipated to provide additional savings for those upgrading from older models.
- Accessory Discounts: Discounts on accessories for pre-orders, further mitigating the impact of the price hike.
Global Pricing Outlook
While US pricing gives an indication of the increase, it remains to be seen how this will translate globally. The expectation is that similar price hikes will be observed in other markets.
Conclusion
The leaked pricing for the Galaxy Z Flip6 suggests that Samsung’s foldable phones are becoming more expensive, dashing hopes for more affordable options in the near future. However, the company’s promotional offers may provide some relief to early adopters looking to upgrade.
