Galaxy Z Fold 3 hits all-time low price, costs about the same as the Flip 4

The Galaxy Z Fold 3 may have just reached an all-time low price without a trade-in. The foldable phone is now available through Amazon at a massive 39% discount that shaves no less than $700 off the phone's full retail price.

Samsung's 2021 book-like foldable flagship phone retails for $1,799, or at the very least, this was the phone's launch price last year. Today, prospective buyers can order the factory-unlocked Galaxy Z Fold 3 with 256GB of storage from Amazon for just $1,099 after a massive $700 discount.

You can also choose to buy the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the S Pen Case bundle for $1,174 or the 512GB Galaxy Z Fold 3 model for $1,290 after a 34% price cut.

Should you buy the Galaxy Z Fold 3 this late in 2022?

It should go without saying that the newer Galaxy Z Fold 4 is a better phone. It has a newer chipset, a more refined exterior design, a better aspect ratio, and more. With that in mind, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 doesn't make a lot of sense at full price.

However, if you're looking to buy a book-like Fold model for what is essentially a Galaxy Z Flip-level price, this Galaxy Z Fold 3 offer seems virtually unbeatable. The Galaxy Z Fold 3 might never get cheaper than this anytime soon, and the phone can still hold its own against the Z Fold 4, and especially against other foldable phones from rival brands.

Whether or not the Galaxy Z Fold 3 is a sound investment in 2022 is up to you. Either way, know that the phone has received only one major Android OS update so far — if we don't count the recent Android 12L release. This means Samsung will continue supporting the device with at least two-to-three additional OS upgrades throughout its lifetime.

First Samsung device: SGH-A800

Mihai is a blogger and column writer at SamMobile. His first Samsung phone was an A800 which took a lot of beating, and a part of him still misses the novelty of the clamshell design. In his free time, he enjoys watching shows, documentaries, and stand-up comedy; listening to music, taking walks, and occasionally playing old(er) video games.
