πŸ“Œ Key Takeaways

  • βœ“Galaxy Z TriFold sells in Korea at a loss due to high production cost.
  • βœ“Price difference between Korea ($2,440) and UAE ($3,260).
  • βœ“Expected US launch early next year.

The Reason Behind the Price Drop

Selling the phone below its manufacturing costs could be a strategic move to boost sales and adoption. If priced higher, it might scare off potential buyers due to its already hefty price point of around $2,440 in Korea. In comparison, when Huawei launched its tri-fold last year, some enthusiasts were willing to pay nearly $5,000 to import the device from China.

Different Prices Across Markets

However, the Galaxy Z TriFold is priced higher outside of South Korea. For instance, it’s listed at about $3,260 in the UAE β€” a 33% increase compared to its Korean price. This suggests that Samsung might be subsidizing the device in Korea to make it more accessible.

US Launch on the Horizon

The US launch of the Galaxy Z TriFold is expected sometime early next year. CES, happening in January, could provide further details about this new model. Additionally, Samsung has a First Look event scheduled for Sunday, January 4th, at 7 PM PT.
