Samsung has been leading the foldable market with its foldable smartphones and has been holding the ground year after year. But these foldable smartphones come at a hefty price too. So it is not very easy for a lot of people to afford them. However, if rumours are to be believed, Samsung is currently working on more affordable versions of its foldable devices. The South Korean tech giant is possibly working on a Samsung Galaxy Fan Edition (FE) series, for the foldable. The Fan Edition is known for bringing flagship-level experiences at affordable prices. This can be the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip FE.

As per Korean tech blogger yeux1122, Samsung is working on its first budget-friendly foldable. It is rumoured to be under work right now and can be released along with the higher-end Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Fold 7 later this year. During its recent earnings call, Samsung even gave us a hint and said, “We are considering ways to lower entry barriers so that more customers can actually experience foldable products, given the high satisfaction among existing foldable users.”

So a lot is not known about the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip SE. On the design front, it can closely resemble the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and 6, with a 6.7-inch main foldable display. It can also have an IPX8 rating for water resistance. It can even feature Android 15-based OneUI 7.

It is believed that Samsung might cut costs by reusing previous-generation components such as an older chip, reduced RAM or storage options, and entry-level camera hardware. This strategy is something that we have seen on other FE models too.

But let’s take this information with a pinch of salt as Samsung is currently gearing up for the launch of the Galaxy S25 series, the foldables will be launched later during the year.
