Are you pleased to finally learn that the rumors of an early announcement of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5 in South Korea have been confirmed? If you live in the United States or Canada and had hoped to purchase Samsung’s next-generation foldables by the end of July, you might not want to get too excited just yet.
This is due to the fact that a separate North American launch for the chaebol is now anticipated to take place in August following the domestic Unpacked event. People are concerned that the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Z Fold 5 will not be able to go on sale “early” in that crucial region after all, specifically on August 11.
Do you now have a “traditional” timeline?
The Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3 were unveiled globally on August 11, 2021, and their first customers received their products on August 27, respectively.
The Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 went on sale a little over two weeks later at a single global Unpacked event on August 10, 2022. After all the talk of an early release, the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5 could be sold to their first US customers on or around August 25, if Samsung follows a similar schedule this year.
Obviously, with a Seoul debut added to the timetable nearby July 26, it’s far from impossible that this recently reputed North American hoedown on August 11 will be significantly less spectacular than previous occasions held in Las Vegas or New York.
It’s also possible that Samsung will begin actual sales or regional pre-orders right after that date, which would still be considered an early release in comparison to the commercial debut of the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 on August 25, 2022.
In the end, all of this is just speculation on our part, and they can’t even guarantee that this rumor of a two-stage, two-date Unpacked launch strategy will be true for the time being. In the event that it does, it doesn’t be guaranteed to must be awful information for people anxiously holding on to get their hands on Samsung’s next large (foldable) things at the earliest opportunity.
How well do you know the Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5?
The pricing structure of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Z Flip 5 as well as the pre-order deals that Samsung is undoubtedly preparing to run in various markets to improve the two value propositions and convince you to break the bank are clearly much easier and quicker to discuss at this point.
Obviously, there’s an exceptionally impressive chance that the Z Overlap 4 and Z Flip 4 costs will go unaltered this year given the number of key elements and qualities that are likewise expected to experience practically no modifications.
As a result, the Z Fold 5 could start at the same $1,800 price point as its predecessor, with screens that are almost identical at 7.6 and 6.2 inches, cameras that sound very familiar, and a design that looks familiar but is refined with no crease, dust resistance, and possibly improved durability over time.
In contrast, the much more affordable Galaxy Z Flip 5 is likely to cost $999.99 in an entry-level model with 128GB of storage and 8GB of RAM. It also has a 3,700mAh battery, dual 12MP rear-facing cameras, a 6.7-inch primary display, and, most importantly, a huge 3.4-inch cover screen that has a shape that is decidedly unusual.
Naturally, the cutting-edge Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor that powers the Z Flip 5 and the Z Fold 5 will also be shared. This processor is expected to give the Z Flip 5 and Z Fold 5 significantly more raw power than their predecessors and the current top contenders for the title of best Android phone in the world.
