Missed the Z Fold 7 pre-order deal — when’s the next best time to buy?

I canceled my Fold 7 pre-order trying to be financially responsible — but now I feel like I fumbled.

The launch had $300 off + double the storage + trade-in bonus, and I missed all of it. 😩

Anyone know when Samsung typically runs the next best unlocked phone promos? Black Friday? Labor Day?





I’m not into refurbished or carrier-locked phones. I just want an unlocked Fold 7 under $1,100 with trade-in if possible.





Appreciate any advice from longtime Samsung watchers 🙏
 
Ah got it, that gives me a little hope at least 🙏 I’ll keep watching like a hawk for the next round then. Appreciate you
You can still get $1000 off at Bestbuy depending on what phone you are trading in. Total could get as low as $1200 including taxes for the 512GB version and lower for the 256GB version.
 
Honestly I was surprised that Samsung dropped the double storage upgrade right away, they like to keep that promo going. I showed the pricing right now. With a trade in of $1,000 the pricing is $70 more then I paid, I paid $999. Some got the extra $100 for the pricing BS that was happening.

So for missing the pre-order pricing, it's not that much higher now. Typically pre-order pricing doesn't happen to much after the pre-order pricing ends, although the pre-order deal wasn't the best we've seen on the fold 7.

Also if you keep an eye on the Samsung site they tend to swing back and forth on days where they will promo the extra storage for the same price.

Yeah, I was also surprised how quickly the promo ended.
