Samsung's groundbreaking Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G is 'cheaper' than ever

Look, we never expected Samsung‘s second-gen horizontally folding mobile device to be affordable. Far from it, in fact, given how much better the 5G-enabled Galaxy Z Fold 2 looked (both on paper and in reality) than its already extravagantly priced and decidedly experimental 4G LTE-only predecessor.

We’re obviously talking about brand-new, unused, unopened, and undamaged units here, available for $1,699.99 a pop in a “limited quantity”, and although the eBay listing doesn’t explicitly mention this, we’re pretty sure Microsoft will also hook you up with a full 1-year warranty.

While one thousand and seven hundred bucks is still a whole lot of money to ask for an Android phone in this day and age, something tells us you’re unlikely to score a higher than $300 discount anytime soon. 

With the Galaxy Note 21 series no longer expected to materialize this year, an undoubtedly state-of-the-art Galaxy Z Fold 3 5G could share the August Unpacked spotlight with a budget-friendly S21 FE 5G powerhouse, at which point the existing Z Fold 2 5G is all but guaranteed to drop lower than $1,700… if Samsung doesn’t instead plan to discontinue the device altogether by then.

In addition to a design like no other available right now, with a primary 7.6-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen and a 6.23-inch Super AMOLED cover display in tow, the futuristic handset has a blazing fast Snapdragon 865+ processor going for it, as well as 12 gigs of RAM, 256 gigs of internal storage space, a grand total of five cameras, and a 4,500mAh battery.
