Samsung GALAXY FOLD, was launched last night by the Samsung company during a conference that took place in San Francisco, and we are talking about an amazing phone, which will surely attract the attention of many people. As you can see in the video clip below, the Samsung GALAXY FOLD quite successfully combines the functions of a phone and those of a tablet, all for the sum of only 2000 dollars, or euros, for ordinary mortals in Europe .
The price of the Samsung GALAXY FOLD is huge, extremely high for what it offers, even higher than that of a Samsung GALAXY S10 Plus, and of a Samsung tablet, which offers an even better experience. Yes, you have to carry two different devices with you to have the same experience that the Samsung GALAXY FOLD offers, but in the end you get a better experience.
The price of the Samsung GALAXY FOLD makes the purchase impossible to justify
Samsung has categorized the Samsung GALAXY FOLD as a luxury product, so it is dedicated to an extremely narrow segment of customers, who have 2000 dollars to spend on something they won't use that often. It is quite clear that the Samsung GALAXY FOLD cannot be used very easily as a mobile phone, because it is a remote control that does not fit in your pocket, nor does it sit very well in your hand, but if you need a tablet somewhere in the world, then you can successfully use it.
A tablet from Samsung, Apple, or other premium manufacturers, plus another premium phone, will still offer a better experience than the Samsung GALAXY FOLD, but separately, because they are intended to be used in different ways. Samsung GALAXY FOLD is a hybrid, which combines the functions of two different products in something that is just at the beginning of the road, looks quite strange, and cannot fulfill all the requirements.
Samsung GALAXY FOLD starts a change that we needed
The Samsung GALAXY FOLD is not the ideal folding phone for many people, especially since it is 17mm thick when folded, so it is even thicker than a tablet, but it is the beginning of something "bigger". A change was needed in the smartphone world, a distance from what is done now, and the Samsung GALAXY FOLD is an experiment that should have been done for some time by the producers, the Koreans having the courage to do it.
Samsung has thought through this experiment quite well, presenting it as such, that is, one dedicated to enthusiasts who have the money to buy the Samsung GALAXY FOLD without expecting to receive from it what a normal phone should offer. It is possible that the Samsung GALAXY FOLD will be very expensive for the technologies it offers, but the prices will decrease over time, as the technological processes will be improved, but it takes a lot of time.
At the moment, I don't know if it can be recommended to someone to buy the Samsung GALAXY FOLD at the price of 2000 dollars, but without purchases, Samsung will not have the courage to make a second model.
