South Korean company Samsung announced a new flexible display smartphone, the Galaxy Z Fold 2 earlier this month, without disclosing the device’s launch date or retail price. However, the official Samsung online store in the UK has already offered the opportunity to pre-order the purchase of the Galaxy Z Fold 2 for £ 1,799, and the delivery of the smartphone in the country is promised on September 17.

Although the cost of the new item is quite impressive (in terms of rubles, it is about 180 thousand), the original Galaxy Fold in the UK cost £ 1900, which is £ 101 more, unless of course there is no mistake on the product page. Samsung representatives have not yet commented on this issue. How much a smartphone will cost in other countries is still unknown. The original Galaxy Fold sold for $ 1980 in the US, and the manufacturer may release a new flexible display device at a lower price point to attract the attention of potential buyers.

It is also unknown if the manufacturer managed to fix some of the shortcomings of the previous smartphone model, such as the strength of the display and the hinge mechanism. It remains to wait on September 1, when Samsung will reveal all the details regarding its new smartphone with a flexible display and announce the official price of the Galaxy Z Fold 2 for different regions. Some details about the new product can be obtained from the review, which was recently published on one of the YouTube channels.
