Hold onto your hinges—Samsung’s going Ultra in the foldable world!
Samsung dropped a teaser last night, and it’s got the mobile world buzzing. For the first time ever, the company is promising an “Ultra experience” for a foldable phone, setting the stage for what might be its most premium Galaxy device yet. And no, this isn’t your average spec bump.
So what’s coming? Based on the teaser, a book-style foldable device is in the works—one that offers more than just the usual feature upgrades. Samsung’s hinting at something sleeker, smarter, and more powerful, equipped with Galaxy AI features tailored specifically for foldables.
“When it unfolds, it transforms—into a more immersive entertainment hub, a spacious workspace, or a multitasking powerhouse,” Samsung said.
Sounds ambitious, right? But here’s the fun part—we still don’t know exactly what it’s called.
🤔 What Could It Be?
There’s speculation that Samsung might ditch the Galaxy Z Fold 7 name for this new flagship and go with Galaxy Z Fold Ultra, following the naming playbook used for the Galaxy Watch Ultra.
But it’s also possible this is a third foldable phone entirely, positioned above the upcoming Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7—kind of like a Galaxy Fold Pro Max… but not in those words (please, Samsung, don’t).
📱 Expected Launch & Pricing
Leaks suggest that Samsung’s next foldables will launch in early July, and this new Ultra tease supports that timeline. The company usually doesn’t start hyping things unless a reveal is just around the corner.
Here’s what we might be looking at:
- Galaxy Z Fold 7 Price (rumored): $1,899.99
- Galaxy Z Fold Ultra Price (estimated): Likely above $2,000, following Samsung’s typical Ultra pricing strategy
Despite all the buzz about tariffs affecting tech prices, one leaker claims Samsung will keep the Fold 7 price steady in the U.S., which would make the Ultra version a clear step up in both features and cost.
🔍 Why It Matters
This could be a big shift in Samsung’s foldable strategy. Instead of having just two foldables—the more affordable Flip and the flagship Fold—an Ultra tier could bring:
- A better camera system
- More robust materials
- Higher RAM/storage options
- Enhanced Galaxy AI tools
- Possibly even S Pen integration that doesn’t feel like an afterthought
The Galaxy Z Fold Ultra (or whatever Samsung ends up calling it) could redefine what premium means in the foldable space. If you’ve been holding out for a truly next-level foldable—one that can do it all, look amazing doing it, and justify a four-figure price tag—this just might be it.
Stay tuned, because July is shaping up to be folding fantastic. 📱✨
