The Samsung Galaxy Fold 2 may be slightly cheaper this time around, as Samsung is rumored to be offering a lower-spec version of the foldable phone.

The rumor comes from SamMobile, which says that a cheaper version of the Galaxy Fold 2 with 256GB of storage will be available at launch. The original $1,980 Galaxy Fold only had a 512GB variant, which could be a high-end version of the Fold 2

though Samsung's Galaxy Z Flip launched earlier this year and is Samsung's second foldable device, not a proper successor to the Galaxy Fold from 2019. However, its low starting price of $1,380 is welcome, and we expect the cost of foldable devices to gradually come down.

Besides the improved specs, we expect the Samsung Galaxy Fold 2 to come with many attractive features. These include camera technology similar to the Samsung Galaxy S20 Plus, a 4.6-inch front display with a water-drop notch, and a 7.3-inch internal display with a punch-hole camera notch or sub-display camera. There will also be a 5G version of the Galaxy Fold 2, which may include an S-Pen stylus. [The Galaxy Fold 2 is expected to launch around the same time as Samsung's other major flagship model, the Galaxy Note 20, which is said to launch this year. The latest Galaxy Note is usually announced around August, but with the coronavirus outbreak disrupting most major technology events, the launch may be delayed slightly.
