Samsung fans in the US will have to dig a little deeper into their pockets if they are looking to buy smartphones like Galaxy Z Flip 7, Galaxy S25 Edge or Galaxy S25 FE, and other devices. The South Korean tech giant has implemented price hikes across a wide range of its mobile devices, including its latest foldable, mid-range smartphones and virtually its entire tablet lineup.According to a report by Phone Arena, while some increases are limited to high-storage configurations, the tablet category has seen across-the-board jump in price, impacting even the most affordable entry-level models.
Samsung smartphones price hikes for premium storage versions
As mentioned, the price increases for Samsung’s phone lineup are mostly targeted at specific variants rather than the entire range. Notably, the base models for the Z Flip 7 and S25 FE have not been made costlier.Updated Samsung smartphone pricing:
- Galaxy Z Flip 7 (512GB): Increased from $1,219.99 to $1,299.99
- Galaxy S25 FE (256GB): Increased from $709.99 to $749.99
- Galaxy S25 Edge (512GB): Increased from $1,219.99 to $1,299.99
Reportedly, Samsung likely avoided raising prices on the standard S25, S25 Plus, and S25 Ultra because those models are already struggling to maintain momentum at their original launch prices.
Samsung tablets price hike
Coming to the tablets, Unlike the price hikes seen with the smartphones, Samsung’s tablet lineup has been hit harder. Every tablet currently sold by Samsung in the US has received a price increase, with the flagship Galaxy Tab S11 series seeing significant jumps even for the base storage versions, according to a report by Phone Arena.

Samsung’s mid-range and budget tablets price hikeThe “Fan Edition” and budget-friendly “A” series models weren’t spared either:

Samsung has not released an official statement regarding the price adjustments.

For consumers, this means that the “affordable” entry point for Samsung’s premium ecosystem has just moved significantly higher.
