Samsung is preparing for its next Unpacked event in early July, reportedly to be held in New York, where it is expected to officially launch its next-generation foldables — the Galaxy Z Fold7, Galaxy Z Flip7, and the highly anticipated Galaxy Z Flip7 FE. The FE edition, short for “Fan Edition”, is rumored to be a budget-friendly clamshell foldable, bringing the foldable experience to a wider audience.
According to the latest reports from South Korea, the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE will be priced at KRW 1,000,000, translating to approximately $740 USD or HK$5,772. The estimated launch price in the United States is expected to be $799 (approx. HK$6,222) — a significantly lower price point compared to the standard Galaxy Z Flip7, positioning the FE variant as a compelling entry-level foldable.

European and UK pricing remains speculative, but based on historical trends, it could launch for around €799 in Europe and £699 in the UK. These prices remain unconfirmed and could vary at launch depending on regional taxes and currency fluctuations.
Storage configurations for the Flip7 FE will include 128GB and 256GB options, whereas the standard Flip7 is expected to ship with 256GB and 512GB variants — likely following a similar pricing structure to previous Samsung foldables.
There’s some speculation around the hardware powering the Flip7 FE. Some rumors suggest it may be a rebranded version of the Galaxy Z Flip5 with an Exynos 2400e SoC, while others believe it could be an alternative version of the upcoming Flip6. Although these theories seem contradictory, the smartphone industry has seen stranger naming and rebranding tactics in the past.
Here’s a quick pricing and storage comparison based on current leaks:
Model | Storage Options | Expected Price |
---|---|---|
Galaxy Z Flip7 FE | 128GB / 256GB | $799 / ~HK$6,222 |
Galaxy Z Flip7 | 256GB / 512GB | To be confirmed |
The Galaxy Z Flip7 FE is shaping up to be a cost-effective gateway into Samsung’s foldable ecosystem, making foldables more accessible to a broader user base. With the July launch event drawing closer, more details will likely surface, so stay tuned.
