Обзор Galaxy Z Flip FE hardware rumors hint at how Samsung will keep costs down

[Обзор]

• Samsung has been rumored to be working on an FE version of its Galaxy Z Flip foldable.
• Earlier reports suggested that the Z Flip FE might feature the same screen as the upcoming Z Flip 7.
• Now the latest rumor claims that Samsung could give the Flip FE the Flip 6’s display, instead.

Samsung may be at a turning point in its approach to foldable smartphones. Up until this year, the company had kept things reasonably straightforward, iterating upon each prior generation for its Flip and Fold form factors. But all of a sudden, Samsung mixes things up with the introduction of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 Special Edition, which ends up being a bit of a surprise hit — even as the company may be lowering its targets for foldables overall. Maybe the biggest shift in Samsung’s foldable strategy could concern the introduction of yet another new model, as rumors have circled around the possibility of a Galaxy Z Flip FE. Now we’re hearing a little more about how that hardware could come together.

The idea of what constitutes one of Samsung’s Galaxy FE models is kind of a moving target. Coming from “Fan Edition,” the label is supposed to highlight devices that include lots of customer-favorite features while also coming in at price points that are usually more competitive than the primary flagships.
