However, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is hardly one of the best cheap phones; it's still firmly priced in the flagship phones realm, But as you'll see in our Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 specs roundup, it's got the hardware to justify its price tag. 

So read on for what you need to know about the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 price and our analysis on it.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 price analysis

Whichever way you cut it the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 isn't cheap. With a flagship price tag it's hard to see the Flip paving the way for mainstream foldable phones. 

But then again, it doesn't have to. As you'll see in our hands-on Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 review, the phone offers a high-end foldable phone experience in a flip form factor. Other brands do such foldables but arguably don't have the specs sheet the Flip 6 does, with its Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 chip and access to Samsung's smart Galaxy AI features. 

Now I'd suggest you have to be someone who really wants a flippable foldable phone, but if you do than the Galaxy Z Flip 6 looks hard to beat and may just about justify its price tag.
