Samsung unveils ‘most expensive smartphone’ yet
Samsung hasn't given up on its most expensive phone, announcing Tuesday an even steeper price for the sequel to last year's foldable phone. The new Galaxy Fold Z 2 phone will be priced at a cool $1,999, USA Today reported.
That's $10 more than the already pricey original and it will be available on Sept. 18.
But if you think $2,000 is high, it's a relative bargain compared to the step-up "fashion" model that Samsung would also like to sell you. The Thom Browne fashion edition will cost $3,299.
The Thom Browne model will explore "its shared ethos to provide a deeper level of hardware and software integration. The geometric grey and signature multicolor stripe is complemented by a grosgrain pattern, creating a visual texture of fabric on Galaxy Z Fold 2’s unique design," Samsung said in a statement.
