    There is no way that is true, when the A55, a standard midranger, costs the equivalent of over 500 usd. lol

          50mp wide + 13 mp super wide + 5mp depth/macro
          8gb ddr5
          128gb ufs3.1
          Exynos 1480 or SD7g3

            And if it's truly an FE, probably it will ship with last year's flagship SoCs, something similar to what Vivo will be doing.

              What will it cheap out on though? I think it won't have a cover screen, or one that is very limited.

                And as always americans will get it dirt cheap because Apple dominates and Samsung will basically give it for free while in Europe we'll propably have to pay €1000.

                  Mills, 18 Mar 2024E1480 for 800 bucks is not just highway robbery, that'... moreThat is why I think that they might use the Exynos 2400 instead. In house chips are cheaper than the Qualcomm ones and if they risk, they might use the superior option.

                  When they can use the Exynos 1480? On a Galaxy Flip. Maybe a Sub USD 650 Launch Price Galaxy Z Flip (or call it Galaxy A Flip).

For 800 bucks, I want 8 Gen 1 or better performance. Smh, foldables are meant for multitasking and employing a midrange chip for the job isn't the best decision. Plus, it uses UFS 3.1, which is still fast but still.

                      Totally unlikely. Even Oppo's Find N sold for $1,199.

                        It will most definitely come with Exynos 2200 or Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 or even 8 Gen 1 since they fabbed it themselves.

                        For 800 bucks, this is still more expensive than the nubia flip but it is book style so what else can we do. Hope they don't give it an outdated hinge mechanism

                          Strange. Unless the Z Fold Ultra is the TRUE Z Fold and the current one will use Exynos chips.. still the 2400 is the first Exynos chip which is not crappy at all and it would be welcome.

                            Wow they really reduced it by $1000. I'm guessing it will use an Exynos 1480 and an average as A series camera.
