Samsung has successfully introduced the Galaxy S22 series and is now focusing on the upcoming foldable smartphones. The company has left the Galaxy Note series, and now, the August window it will be occupied by the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4. The first leaks have begun to surface with details of the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold. According to a recent report, Samsung expects to sell twice as much as its predecessors – the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3. However, for this, the company will need to introduce Great upgrades, and may bring a lower price. After all, the segment is finally getting more competitors.
According to Ross Young of DSCC, a source familiar with foldable smartphone matters says Samsung wants to sell a lot more than its predecessors. However, this is more than just an expectation. The company is confident that the new devices can become successful. It is preparing to manufacture more than double the number of units during the month of July. Therefore, the company is preparing for good sales. Frankly, it’s a risky move but one that Samsung can easily handle. Moreover, the company sells more and more foldable smartphones every year. So naturally they should expect the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 to be strong competitors.
The production of the Samsung Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 for the month of July was more than double that of the Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3. This indicates a very strong launch. We may see a price cut.

Interestingly, Ross Young is also considering buying cheaper smartphones this year. This will be a good reason for more users to join this segment, which has been a niche segment in the past few years. After all, not everyone easily spends more than $1,200 on a smartphone. It only makes sense that Samsung would try to make its foldable smartphones cheaper. After all, the Oppo Find N 5G and the Vivo X Fold are strong competitors to the Z Fold and are much cheaper. The only problem at the moment is that none of these devices are available outside of China.
Alleged Galaxy Z Fold 4 specifications
It’s possible that Samsung’s foldable smartphone technology has matured enough to become cheaper. The new Galaxy Z Fold 4 is expected to bring a new generation of under-display camera technology for the company. However, the new camera won’t have an impressively high resolution, but it will still offer an upgrade from 4MP to 10MP. Z Fold 4 will also bring Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 1 Plus. Contrary to previous rumors, the phone will not have a slot for the S Pen. It will still support the stylus just like its predecessor. The device will also bring a 108MP camera.
