Foldable phones appeared on the market a few years ago, and little by little they were able to take over a fairly significant gap in the market. We have a very clear example of this with the Huawei Mate XT, the first double-hinged foldable which was a real success.
Samsung does not want to be left behind in a market where it was a pioneer with its first Galaxy Z Fold and Galaxy Z Flip. While waiting for its first tri-foldable mobile phone, the South Korean company’s latest attempt at the foldable phone market is the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition, a phone that, although far from here, It was a great success.
The Galaxy Z Fold SE arrives in stores… and sells out in 10 minutes
This new foldable arrives just a few weeks after the Galaxy Z Fold6, and it’s an improved version of it. The most obvious change between one model and the other lies in its design: the special edition is 1.5 millimeters thinner and weighs 3 grams less, thus being Samsung’s thinnest, thinnest foldable yet. It doesn’t stop there: its exterior screen has more resolution and has a 200-megapixel main sensor.
The device went on sale on October 25, although it was not a global launch. At the moment it seems that Samsung He only intends to sell this new foldable in Asian marketsand in fact, so far it has only arrived in South Korea. Of course, the launch in this territory was somewhat eventful, since it was delayed by seven hours.
It was a mystery how the public was going to behave towards this new device, especially considering that there is not much difference from the Galaxy Z Fold6. The truth is that this decision turned out to be great for the South Korean company: It only took 10 minutes to put up the “All Sold” sign..
This success is further proof that Users are increasingly interested in folding technology. In addition, the new Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition can open a new roadmap for the company’s next foldables, which could follow this trend, betting on thinner and thinner designs.
