In any case, the Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G will become available for pre-orders in India on Monday, September 14th. Both Samsung itself and all of the largest electronics retailers in the country will be accepting pre-purchase registrations, though curiously enough, the company has yet to communicate an official ending to this pre-booking period.
Galaxy Z Fold 2 India launch is unsurprisingly deliberate
This is just another indicator of the clever Galaxy Z Fold 2 release strategy Samsung devised for its second-generation and third-ever foldable, the goal of which is to maximize hype while minimizing inventory costs. Because, as you might imagine, mass-producing a highly experimental device and charging $2,000 for it is quite a risky endeavor, even for the world's largest smartphone brand. Speaking of pricing, Indian consumers will be asked to shell out Rs 149,999 ($2,040) for the Galaxy Z Fold 2, Samsung has confirmed.
The high-end smartphone will be available in Mystic Black and the signature Mystic Bronze color. Four free months of a YouTube Premium subscription and a 22% discount on Microsoft Office 365 are among the nationwide promotions Samsung has in store for early adopters. Of course, you can also count on 12-month, interest-free EMI financing, at least if you're buying the Galaxy Z Fold 2 from one of Samsung's Experience Stores or its official website.
