Galaxy Z Flip 5G’s price permanently dropped by $250

Samsung is pushing foldable smartphones as its real flagship device lineup. However, at $1,450 or higher, not many consumers could afford Galaxy Z series phones. To make foldable smartphones accessible to more people, the company has decided to drop the Galaxy Z Flip 5G’s price.

Samsung has announced that it has permanently dropped the Galaxy Z Flip 5G’s price by $250 in the US. You can now buy the unlocked variant of the Galaxy Z Flip 5G for $1,199.99 from Samsung’s website. While it is still a high price to pay for a smartphone, the company has made sure that customers can now easily choose between the $1,200 Galaxy S21 Ultra and the similarly priced Galaxy Z Flip 5G.

While the Galaxy S21 Ultra offers better performance in most areas, those who were itching to get an experience of owning a foldable device wouldn’t have to spend higher than candybar smartphones. With this price drop, the South Korean tech giant is also undercutting the Motorola RAZR 5G, the only direct competitor to the Galaxy Z Flip 5G.
