Galaxy Z Flip FE – A Foldable for the Masses?
Rumors of a Fan Edition (FE) foldable have circulated for months, and Samsung seems to have all but confirmed it. A new software build was discovered for a mystery device with model number SM-F761—a designation that fits into the Flip series lineup but doesn't align with the upcoming Flip7 (SM-F751).
Given that Samsung wouldn’t be working on Flip8’s software this early, speculation strongly points to this being the Galaxy Z Flip FE—a more accessible alternative to premium foldables.
Expected Features of the Galaxy Z Flip FE
Leaks suggest that the Galaxy Z Flip FE will feature:
Same Display as Flip6 – A 6.7-inch Dynamic AMOLED foldable screen with a 120Hz refresh rate.
Exynos 2400e Chipset – A slightly less powerful processor than the Flip7’s rumored Exynos 2500.
Up to 12GB RAM & 256GB Storage – Flagship-level performance at a lower price.
Expected July Launch – Likely to be unveiled alongside the Galaxy Z Flip7 and Galaxy Z Fold7.
What Does This Mean for Samsung’s Foldable Strategy?
If the Galaxy Z Flip FE does launch, it will mark a new era for foldables, making them more affordable for a broader audience. Samsung has long dominated this space, but a budget-friendly Flip could bring foldable tech to more users than ever before.
Final Thoughts
With Samsung’s server listing and past leaks lining up, the Galaxy Z Flip FE seems more real than ever. If it does launch, expect it to shake up the foldable market with a competitive price while keeping the core Flip experience intact.
