We've all heard of Christmas presents, but what if you were to start the new year with a nice little gift for yourself that no uncle, aunt, or distant cousin would ever dream of putting under your tree?
That's certainly an... exotic notion, and even at the end of 2025 (or beginning of 2026), there are few mobile devices more exotic than the Galaxy Z Fold 7. Of course, Samsung's latest book-style foldable isn't exactly priced for the masses, normally starting at a whopping $1,999.99, but for an undoubtedly limited time only, you can slash a very cool (and rare) 520 bucks off the list price of an even costlier variant.

I'm talking about the 512GB storage configuration, which typically goes for a prohibitive $2,119.99, and even more specifically, you'll have to opt for a Jet Black model to maximize your savings before your big New Year's Eve celebration.
As you might imagine, Amazon can't make any pre-January 1 delivery promises... unless you're a Prime member, in which case you can miraculously hope to get your massively discounted Galaxy Z Fold 7 at your doorstep before ringing in 2026.

Believe it or not, this $520 discount is higher than everything Amazon offered during its extended Black Friday and Cyber Monday 2025 festivities of November and early December, also beating all of Samsung's first-party deals (without device trade-ins) of the last few weeks.

As highlighted in our in-depth Galaxy Z Fold 7 review a little while back and pretty much evident at a first glance for anyone with a working pair of eyes, this is probably the best foldable phone money can buy in the US right now.
Is it (still) expensive? Absolutely. Is it worth every penny? I think so, as it's virtually impossible to find bigger and better screens, as well as a faster processor and a more advanced camera system than what this ultra-flexible Android powerhouse offers... at least stateside.
