How will Samsung price its foldable phone? (results)
9

We asked you last week how much do you think Samsung will charge for its unique foldable device that will sport a 7.3" screen when unfurled, and just 9% think Samsung will go all-out with a price tag higher than $2000. This may indeed make it dead on arrival, but 47% of you are of the opinion that the foldable Samsung phone may even fit in the up to $1499 range that is currently reserved for souped-up flagships with up to 512GB storage.
While Samsung may be way ahead of everybody when it comes to a retail model of a foldable phone, Xiaomi is determined to use a different, out-folding design type to beat everybody to the punch, claim insiders, and couple it with a much lower price tag to entice buyers. An obscure Chinese company already demonstrated such an out-folding model recently, with a claimed price tag of $1300.
Samsung's in-folding Galaxy X/F, or whatever it's called, is said to land at a cross-section price of 2 million won ($1800), while the eventual ones from Xiaomi or Oppo are tipped to cost a million won, or about $900, by utilizing a flexible panel made by LG. That's half as the rumored price of Samsung's foldable phone which is speculated to cost anywhere in the $1500-$2000 range, or even more. During its foldable phone Q&A session at the Developer Conference the other day, Samsung's presenters said that they will try everything possible to release the Gumby phone at an "appropriate" price, whatever that means.
