Want a foldable without full retail? This Z Flip7 is $200 off

Foldables are fun, but they’re usually priced like a luxury. That’s why a straight-up discount matters. The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 256GB (unlocked) is down to $899.99 (was $1,099.99), saving you $200. If you’ve been curious about flipping to a foldable for the first time, this kind of price cut makes it much easier to justify, especially if you want the style and pocketability without paying full retail.

The main reason to buy a Flip is the form factor. You get a full-size smartphone experience that folds down into a compact square, which is genuinely nicer in a pocket or small bag than a slab phone that always feels too tall. It’s also a great phone for quick, casual photos and hands-free moments because the fold can act like its own stand for group shots, desk videos, or FaceTime-style calls.

You’re also getting 256GB of storage and an unlocked model, which is the practical combo if you want flexibility with carriers and you don’t want to worry about storage creeping up on you after a year of photos, apps, and downloads.

At $899.99, this deal is all about making the “fun upgrade” feel financially sane. Foldables are one of the few phone changes that feel different day-to-day, because you actually interact with the fold multiple times a day. If you like the idea of a phone that’s easier to carry and more flexible for selfies and hands-free use, a $200 discount is enough to push it into “worth trying.”

Two quick reality checks: if you want the absolute best cameras for the money, traditional flagship slab phones can still be a better value. And if you’re rough on phones, you’ll want to be honest with yourself about whether you’ll treat a foldable carefully enough to enjoy it long-term.

At $899.99, this is a strong buy if you want an unlocked foldable with plenty of storage and you’ve been waiting for a real discount before jumping in. If you prioritize top-tier camera performance above everything else, you may be happier with a standard flagship instead.
