According to some industry sources, the all-new Galaxy Z Fold 2 smartphone will arrive with a price tag of INR 1,49,999 (i.e. $2041). For the Indian market, the pre-orders of the device has not commenced. Well, according to the report, it will kick off from September 14 in the country. The purchased unit, on the other hand, will see its shipping from September 26.
Apart from Indian pricing, the industry insider has also revealed the price range of accompanying accessories. The Aramid Standing Cover will come with an INR 4,799 (i.e. $65) price tag while the Leather Cover will set you back INR 5,999 (i.e. $82). Considering the pricing on the other markets, the Indian consumer might end up saving better than the rest.
Samsung is also offering a special offer on the repair service. As per the offer, if you accidentally damage your device once within a year, you can get it repaired for INR 10,999 ($149). It is worth noting that the damage can be either physical or liquid. Apart from this, Samsung seems to be not offering any pre-book launch offers if the report is to be believed. Earlier this month, the smartphone maker launched its foldable device in the Chinese market.
