Sorry , we may have got your Hope up by deal rumours of a mid - range Samsungfoldable phone , last week . Because , seemingly , Samsung has no interest in making one right now .
A Samsung interpreter has reportedly said : “ We do n’t plan to manufacture foldable smartphones that are priced in the midrange , and the latest rumours are groundless . ”
Korea JoongAng Daily , the publication reporting the comment , is unfamiliar to us . swear Reviewshas approach Samsung for a copy of the statement above .
In many ways it would be unsurprising if Samsung did n’t eventually start to offer foldable at a more low-cost price than theZ Flip 5andZ Fold 5 , which command an expenditure of at least £ 999 to buy stigma unexampled and unlimited .
It is thought the path to mainstream espousal has to go through offering phone at more manageable price point for those folks unwilling and ineffectual to drop a grand on a handset .
Samsung has enjoy winner with its mid - range GalaxyA - Series phonesthat sit below the all-powerful Galaxy S - Series Android speech sound , so is n’t inauspicious to offering phones at multiple cost point .
Perhaps Samsung does n’t have the capacity to produce foldable phones that keep the same touchstone of enduringness and quality while also lowering the toll ? We surely have n’t heard of Samsung showing technology that fits the poster .
Samsung endured some serious problems with its very first folding earpiece , so perhaps it ’s wise for the party to keep everything insurance premium for now .
Eventually , though , you suspect Samsung will need to introduce foldable phones at small price points . If it does n’t , its Android rivals surely will .
