We’re now lower than two weeks from the August 10 announcement of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4, however as so typically occurs with high-profile cellphone launches, the cellphone has already been leaked kind of in full. In truth, two large leaks have now landed kind of concurrently – one revealing the doubtless design, and the opposite the possible worth.

First up, lets check out the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4’s doable design, courtesy of leaked renders shared by Evan Blass – a leaker with an important monitor report – via 91Mobiles (opens in new tab).

These look like official press renders, and so they present the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Four in three shades – black, beige, and a kind of gray inexperienced.

You may see there’s a triple-lens digicam, and a design that seems principally an identical to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3, which isn’t any shock since leaks had recommended as a lot. In truth, we’ve beforehand seen leaked renders which additionally confirmed this design, so it’s doubtless correct.

The leak additionally consists of some Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Four renders, and so they equally look so much just like the Galaxy Z Flip 3, in addition to matching beforehand leaked renders. You may see a dual-lens digicam right here in a black strip on the again, whereas the remainder of the rear is proven in a selection of graphite, gold, blue or purple.

Subsequent up we’ve bought costs. Based on South Korean website Naver (opens in new tab), the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Four will begin at 1,998,700 gained for 256GB of storage, rising to 2,097,700 gained for 512GB. We gained’t hassle with conversions as a result of these are precisely the identical costs because the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Three launched for, suggesting that costs in different areas could be an identical too.

That will imply a beginning worth of $1,799 / £1,599 / AU$2,499, rising to $1,899 / £1,699 / AU$2,649 for 512GB of storage. Notably that’s barely at odds with one other latest leak, which recommended costs would enhance just a little bit, so we’d take this with a pinch of salt.

This newest supply does counsel a small worth enhance for the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4, which might apparently begin at 1,299,000 gained for a mannequin with 256GB of storage, rising to 1,398,000 for 512GB.

Nonetheless, whereas this can be a slight worth hike, you’re additionally getting extra beginning storage if this leak is true, and transformed costs for the 256GB Z Flip Four might quantity to round what the 256GB mannequin of the Z Flip Three price – it’s simply there won’t be a less expensive 128GB model this time. That would imply a beginning worth of round $1,049 / £999 / AU$1,599 this 12 months.

Evaluation: a disappointing Flip

If Samsung is flipping up the worth of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4, that might damage what’s at the moment the corporate’s most mainstream foldable cellphone line.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Three reportedly offered very nicely, and that’s certainly largely right down to a worth that – by foldable cellphone requirements – was very reasonably priced. With the intention to keep or construct on that momentum, we had hoped Samsung would maintain the worth at that very same stage or decrease it additional.

The corporate would possibly nonetheless achieve this, after all, as that is only a leak for now. It additionally appears odd that Samsung wouldn’t supply a 128GB mannequin this 12 months, particularly if skipping which means a better beginning worth.

So fingers crossed for a less expensive base mannequin than we’ve heard about above. That is by no means going to be reasonably priced sufficient to be probably the greatest low cost telephones, but when the worth is true, it might simply be probably the greatest foldable telephones.
