It has only been a few days since Samsung launched the Galaxy S25 series at the Galaxy Unpacked event on January 22.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7: Expected Pricing

Panda Flash Pro on X stated that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and the Galaxy Z Fold 7 are expected to retail at the same prices as their predecessors in most markets worldwide. This should come as good news for those who have been waiting to buy the Z Flip 7 or the Z Fold 7 but haven't yet purchased the Z Flip 6 or the Z Fold 6.

What this means? Well, if Samsung maintains the same pricing as the current models, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 could be priced at ₹1,64,999, while the Galaxy Z Flip 7 could cost ₹1,09,999. 

Why Maintaining Prices Makes Sense for Samsung

We feel this could be a strategic move for Samsung, given that innovation in the foldable smartphone segment has slowed down. While brands like Huawei have introduced trifold designs, mainstream advancements in foldables have been incremental rather than groundbreaking.

With foldables already commanding a premium price, it makes sense for Samsung to maintain the existing price structure. The high cost of foldables has contributed to slower adoption, with many consumers opting for traditional slab-style smartphones instead.

Moreover, with frequent discounts on flagship devices like the iPhone 16 Pro and the Samsung Galaxy S24 Ultra, many users prefer these alternatives due to their durability and overall value. For Samsung to keep the foldable segment appealing, competitive pricing will be key.
