Samsung’s best folding phone, I’d say, is the Galaxy Z Flip5. And it’s now available for the lowest-ever price for the model with 512GB storage. That’s more useful than the base 256GB capacity and the new offer brings it down to the full price of the 256GB version. Here are the details.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip5 with 256GB storage costs $999.99. But the larger-storage option with 512GB of memory, costs $1,119.99—before the new price cuts.
It’s a great phone because it folds down into something really pocketable and has a stunning extra feature: the external screen, the one you see when the phone is folded, is impressively large, curving around the external dual cameras to maximize space. It’s so big, you often don’t need to open the phone at all.
Additionally, it means when you’re taking a portrait photo with the phone opened, your subject can see how they’re looking because the external screen is facing them, so they can strike a pose. You can turn this off if you think they might turn camera-shy.
Anyway, on to the prices.
The New Special Offers
Right now at Amazon, the 512GB version has dropped by $220 to $899.99, which is the lowest price yet for this model and is a 20% price cut. That’s the price for the mint and lavender colors, but you can save even more if you want a different shade. The black option, called graphite, is nearly always the most popular, and is around $5 cheaper still, at $894.97, while the cream finish—my favorite color in this range, for what it’s worth—is 22% off, $250 off the original price at $869.99.
Amazon also has the 256GB model at significantly reduced prices, too. The cream and lavender colors are available with a $100 reduction, just over 10%, off the $999.99 price, bringing it down to $899.99. The mint 256GB model has 15%, or around $150 off, selling for $849.97. And the biggest price drop is for the graphite option, with 17% or $165 off, meaning it retails for $834.99.
The next Flip and Fold phones from Samsung are expected to be announced in the coming months, perhaps as soon as late July, if last year’s calendar is matched.
That’s a good three or four months away, in all likelihood, so these excellent prices could be tempting.
