The cost of phones has been slowly rising for many years now, but with RAMageddon and the rapid rise in component costs, we're likely to see the cost of new smartphones explode over the coming months. Thankfully, some devices may be lucky enough to escape the price hikes — including the cheapest Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8.
According to leaker @TheGalox_ on X, Samsung will release three different variants of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 with prices starting at $1,999 for a model with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage. That's the same price and configuration you'd get if you went out and purchased a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 right now.
