Price point:

Each year, as Gizomochina reports, Samsung launches a dedicated series of flip or foldable smartphones in China to support charitable grounds. Last year they partnered with China Telecom and launched the prior aluminium-built series of Samsung W24 and W24 Flip with prices starting at RMB 15,999 (US$2,198) and RMB 9,999 (US$1,374), respectively.
