ETNews said, the South Korean company will release a line of folding screen Android phones in the price range of USD 770 or around Rp. 11 million.
The plan is that the phone, which still doesn’t have a name, will go on sale in 2024. Quoting ETNewsSaturday (2/7/2022), Samsung’s Mobile Experience (MS) division has just started this mobile phone development project.
The plan is that this cheap folding screen phone will be an affordable option for loyal Samsung users who don’t have a big budget to buy the Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip series.
If it is true that we will launch a folding screen Android cellphone at an affordable price, it is very likely that we will see the “Galaxy A” series of folding screens.

Reportedly, the Galaxy A series will be the best-selling line on the market than the Galaxy S. In the global market, the company has controlled 90 percent of the market. smartphone folding screen.
However, Samsung certainly doesn’t want to be complacent with their current position and wants to further strengthen their position in this promising segment.
This year, shipping smartphone fold also increases. This is inversely proportional to the decrease in the shipment target for smartphones, such as the Galaxy S and A. The shipment target for folding phones this year was increased from 10 million units to 15 million units.
It is believed, the indicator is taken into account by Apple which intends to start production smartphone which can be folded in the years to come.
