Samsung has a new foldable phone that reportedly costs more than Apple's iPhone Duo, but it is sold only in China for now. Here is what that means for buyers.
Samsung has a new foldable phone, and according to Android Authority it costs more than Apple's foldable, the iPhone Duo. The catch is that it is sold only in China. There is no word yet on a US release.
A foldable is a phone that opens like a book to give you a bigger screen. Android Authority describes this one as a Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra in swanky clothing. In plain terms, it looks like the same phone with a more luxurious design.
The material does not say how much the phone costs, what it can do beyond its look, or whether anything inside differs from the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra. It also gives no date for any release outside China.
Foldable prices keep climbing. If you plan to buy one, compare models side by side and wait to see which ones actually reach the US. A phone that makes headlines abroad may never show up on a store shelf here.
Foldables keep getting pricier, so compare models and wait to see what actually reaches the US before you spend.
