  • Tipster Evan Blass has leaked the European prices of the entire Galaxy lineup expected on August 11.
  • The leaked prices for the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3 show that they could be much cheaper than their predecessors.

By now, we’ve seen multiple price leaks for Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Unpacked lineup. However, this is the first time we’re getting possible prices for the Galaxy Z Fold 3, Z Flip 3, and the Galaxy Watch 4 from a trusted source.

Tipster Evan Blass has been busy tweeting renders of all the new Galaxy products we expect to see on August 11. Since we already have a good idea of what the two new foldables, the TWS earbuds, and the Galaxy Watch series look like, let’s focus on their leaked prices.

According to Blass, the Galaxy Z Flip 3 will be the company’s cheapest foldable phone this year. Its 128GB model is tipped to cost €1,099, while the 256GB version could come in at €1,149. That’s a pretty significant drop from the price of the original Galaxy Z Flip that launched at €1,359 in Europe. Of course, we don’t know if these prices include taxes or not, but even so, we imagine you would end up paying lesser for the new Flip.

Coming to the Galaxy Z Fold 3, Blass’ leak suggests that it would start at €1,899 and go up to €1,999 for the top-end model. Once again, this is cheaper by almost €120 compared to the Fold 2’s €2,020 launch price in Europe.

Elsewhere, the Samsung Galaxy Watch 4 series is expected to start at €279 for the 40mm standard model. The 44mm Galaxy Watch 4 could be priced at €309. The leaked price for the 42mm Galaxy Watch 4 Classic is listed as €379.

Lastly, Blass reveals that the Galaxy Buds 2 would be priced at €159. We also heard about the possible pricing of the earbuds from folks over at WinFuture yesterday, suggesting that they could cost €149.99, including taxes.

A direct price conversion of these prices to US Dollars wouldn’t be fair because that’s seldom accurate. We’re also unsure if this would be the exact pricing for all the new Samsung Galaxy devices across Europe. For what it’s worth, another tipster got a lead about the possible prices of the new foldables from a retailer and those are a bit higher than what Blass reports. You can see those leaks below.
