The high price of Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G has been leaked

UPDATE: Samsung has activated the Galaxy Z Fold 2 pre-order page in the UK confirming the local price and release date. The updated story continues below:

A little cheaper than the original Galaxy Fold

The Galaxy Z Fold 2 will presumably retail for € 1,999 in Germany when it goes on sale at the end of September. That’s still an extremely high price point, but it represents a € 100 discount on the first generation model. Because of the different tax rates, Roland Quandt warns that the recommended retail price could again vary by as much as € 100 across the rest of Europe. That means some customers may find it cheaper, while others will have to spend a little more.

Those living in the UK will have to earn £ 1,799 for the 256GB variant according to the local Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2 pre-order page, which is activated too soon. It represents a discount of £ 101 over the original Galaxy Fold.

As for the start date, Samsung has confirmed via the pre-order page that its device will be on sale starting from Friday, September 18th. But if you pre-order, the Galaxy Z Fold 2 will ship on Thursday, September 17th.

For those of you who are unaware, the € 1,999 price point, which is foldable, will give you access to a solid 7.6-inch foldable AMOLED display, complete with narrow edges, a punch hole, and a super-smooth 120Hz refresh rate.

The display in question also has a resolution of 2208 x 1768p. And unlike recent Samsung flagships that can’t run 120Hz above 1080p, the Fold 2 will presumably be able to run at full resolution and 120Hz at the same time.

Next to all of this sits an extra-high 6.2-inch lid display. It also sports a punch hole for the selfie camera and should be much more useful than the one included in the original Galaxy Fold, which only measured at 4.6-inches.
