let me give some ideas to Samsung sales team. Give a low price fold with FHD+ 60hz display, 128 GB storage , 6 GB RAM and mid range SD 7 serious cpu with a plastic body Bring down the price by half of current fold.

Zero, 01 Feb 2024Plot twist:It will use Exynos ChipLooking at the 2400, seems like Exynos finally made a comeback. So as long as it uses the latest fab, I wouldn't mind

Can't wait for it to be massive downgrade while only costing an arm instead of both an arm and leg.
It seems every "affordable" folding phone cuts everywhere considerably while barely affecting the price, I do wonder if folding screens are just that expensive or is it pure greed.

Considering Fold 4 and 5 are just SOC/cameras update of the Fold 3. I guess this FE will be refurbished Fold 2 phones.

Anonymous, 02 Feb 2024500USD is the logical price for Oneplus Open.
Imagine pa... moreBro IPX8 rating???
You cant be serios. Its a phone not a submarine.
Does your phone manufacturer gives you a warranty for case your phone gets damaged by water??? Of course not. You asking for something which is tottaly useless any water proof case is lot better because it actually protect your device from being water damaged. Said peace of mind does not works because even something cheap like Redmi 12C can withstand few rain drops and even most toughtest phone is not 100% water proof if unexpected accident happens your phone can die. So the said IPX8 rating is nothing just an useless costly gimmick not worth to have. Its like 6TH tyre or second spare tyre at your car. You know you will never need it but you will be happy to have it anyway just in case.
Wireless charging is another useless garbage. Cable charging is way better and way faster because it actually charge your battery via charging cord and trough battery pins while wireless charging overheats your battery way faster because the electricity goes trough whole your battery.
Proper UI and multitasking. Such garbage stock android is best, no bloatware, no big ram and storage consumption. Lot of free disk space and ram for apps and for proper working of your phone. UI is nothing but a bloatware which gives you same apps over the ones you already have from google. Like MUIU Brownser or Samsung Brownser while you already have google chrome in your phone. 20+ another examples can be told.
Those doubled apps which doing exactly same act like a mandatory ask for frequent updates and steals your disk space and ram are so useless.
No matter how you look at it stock android is best thing to have in a phone and for those who cant live without bloatware they still can install it from a play store.
Lastly Chinese phones are way better than your casual Samsung because for lower price they gives you equal or even better specs with all required accesories in box like cable, charger, scree protector, case, earplugs etc.
In case of Samsung for example you get maybe a cable and thats it.
Genuine samsung case for Z fold 5 in Slovakia from Samsung store is 80 euros
https://www.samsung.com/sk/mobile-accessories/all-mobile-accessories/?case+smartphones+galaxy-z-fold5
At same site just the charger is 50, screen protector another 30, galaxy buds are 200. Thats a lot.
Same by oneplus for example on oneplus site is way cheaper and tis is with delivery because oneplus have no physicals tores in Slovakia just few shops have their phoens for sale and non genuine accesories. But like i said before everything you have packed in box with phone.
Said oneplus open is much better specced than Z fold 5 cost way less and does way more.
And thats made of cheaper chinese parts while Samsung oarts cost way more and are way worse. No need to mention famous camera blur on S23 series a hardware issues which they never fixed because software fix cant fix hardware problem.
Same goes for S24 series.
Also the famous green line on almost every samsung device.
its over a year when first people started posting this issue. One year passed and noone fixed it yet.
And after a year here we go again https://www.gsmarena.com/samsung_acknowledges_galaxy_s24_color_issues_fix_incoming_soon-news-61427.php
If you really believes they will make some proper repair you are wrong.

This tech_reve so called tip has already been slapped down by Samsung https://www.sammobile.com/news/samsung-says-rumors-cheap-foldable-phone-are-untrue/
Just having a code name means nothing absolutely nothing.
The source Roland Quandt leak 3 letters which suddenly mean....
Of all the phones in Samsungs world, the Z range will be cheaper..
Expect more of the same supposed leaks with zero evidence.
If this code were attributed to Apple would you believe that it meant cheaper iPhones?

Seran Mizorogi, 01 Feb 2024Affordable for Xiaomi fans is $50At least xiaomi fans could first buy the $50 official case of Z Fold, and maybe buy Z Fold6 seven years later after the launch of Z Fold 13.

You can buy Z fold4 in 2024 with a price of 400USD in new condition, but only get the foldable screen part..
So, 400USD is the price of the screen of Z Fold4 (new condition). Give me your 500 USD, i will give you Z Fold4 screen and extra my personal autograph for free.

Cpt.Power, 01 Feb 2024Funny Chinese doing this for years,
They made the whole p... more500USD is the logical price for Oneplus Open.
Imagine paying above 500USD for a chinese foldable without IPX8 rating, without wireless charging, without desktop mode also without proper UI and multitasking.
So, 1200USD is the best price for affordable Z Fold.

Highly unlikely that there's a budget zfold. A budget zflip is much more believable.
