Global RAM shortages have already caused prices to rise<\/a>, and we’ve seen various companies hike the price of phones and laptops by varying amounts over the last few weeks. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 was among them, with the higher storage options jumping by $80. Hardly ideal for a phone that starts at $1,999. But, thankfully, Amazon has flown in with an incredible discount that wipes any price hike off the table.<\/p>\n

You can pick up the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 for $1,599 at Amazon<\/a> right now. That’s the model with 256GB of storage, and a saving of $400 off the usual price. It’s not quite the lowest price we’ve ever seen, but it’s close!<\/p>\n

If you’d rather get more storage for your money, you’re in luck because Amazon has the 512GB Galaxy Z Fold 7 available for $1,719<\/a>. That’s $400 off the old $2,119 price tag, which is what Amazon still considers full price, and $480 off what Samsung has decided you should now pay.<\/p>\n

If you want the 1TB option, you’ll have to head to another retailer like Best Buy, where you can save $450<\/a> on an unlocked model.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

Smartphones are expensive, and the absolute last thing we need is to be asked to pay more money for a new device. Especially when the phone in question is almost nine months old, and on the verge of being replaced with a superior option. Thankfully, in the case of the Galaxy Z Fold 7<\/a>, the discounts are more than making up for Samsung’s brazen price hikes<\/a>.<\/p>\n

There are many benefits to buying a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, even if you haven’t owned one of the best foldable phones<\/a> before. The biggest change is that Samsung finally introduced a 200MP camera lens on this model, bringing its camera performance more in line with flagship Galaxy phones.<\/p>\n

Samsung also added a bigger display, slimmed down the overall design, while also offering a similar level of battery and performance power you’d expect from non-folding phones. Plus, it includes all the best features from Galaxy AI<\/a>, which is not something a lot of other foldables can claim. Especially not the upcoming iPhone Fold<\/a>, thanks to how poorly Apple Intelligence has taken off.<\/p>\n

Admittedly, there are some drawbacks to buying a Z Fold 7. Cost is the main one, and even with $400 off, you’re still paying considerably more than you would for a non-foldable phone. There’s also no S Pen support, with Samsung removing the hardware needed to use its stylus on the Z Fold 7. Considering the size of the foldable screen, that stylus could have come in handy.<\/p>\n
