FULL STORY ======================================================================Credible
rumors have again predicted the launch of a Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE Foldable tipped to land in 2025 with the same display as the Galaxy Z Flip 7 Price
drop could be achieved with downgraded camera and processor

The best Foldable phones bring some of the most interesting smartphone innovations weve seen in years but their high price makes them fairly inaccessible. Fortunately, there are signs that could change in 2025 with new rumors again predicting the release of a Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 Fan Edition.

A Galaxy Z Flip FE has been expected for some time, and now Ross Young a supply chain specialist with a strong track record for leaks said that it looks like a Samsung FE clamshell is finally coming in 2025.

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 folds like a clamshell and can morph between a pocket-sized square and a full S24 Plus in terms of screen size though its cameras arent quite as impressive despite it costing a little more than the Plus at $1,099.99 / 1,049 / AU$1,799 (256GB storage / 12GB RAM). Samsungs Fan Edition or FE phones are usually cheaper versions of its existing flagship boasting a few premium features mixed with some downgrades at a lower price.

As expected, Young later teased that while some elements such as the display
are likely to match the Z Flip 7 (which is expected to land next year) the camera and processor could be different. Were reading different here as
worse, but an uncompromised screen would be a good start. The cheap foldable we've been wanting? Will the Flip FE live up to Samsung's other Fan Editions (Image credit: Philip Berne / Future)

As with all leaks we should take these comments with a pinch of salt, but
were cautiously optimistic that the Galaxy Z Flip FE could help get foldables into more peoples hands in 2025 if it arrives.

A big question will be that price vs performance debate. FE phones have to come with downgrades at their reduced price, but the full-powered Galaxy Z Flip phones already come with a few downgrades at a higher price with the added cost being justified by their unique display design. The Flip FE model if Samsung isnt careful could then end up with compromised features at a price that still feels high.

Given Samsung's AI focus we expect the Galaxy Z Flip FE would be Gemini-compatible even if it uses a worse chipset than the Flip 7, but were a little concerned to hear its cameras might face a downgrade as this was already a weak point of the 6.

Well have to wait and see what Samsung delivers in 2025, but while there's plenty a Flip FE could get wrong, a cheaper foldable would be a step in the right direction. So if youve been waiting to get a foldable, next year could be your year.
