TL;DR
- Samsung is reportedly making a change to its pre-order storage upgrade offer for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Flip 8.
- Instead of doubling your storage for free, the company will now only pay 50% of the difference.
- The reason for the change is attributed to the ongoing RAM and storage shortage.
In about a week, Samsung will be holding Galaxy Unpacked, where it will debut the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Fold 8 Ultra, and Flip 8. In case you want an early peek at all the devices that will be announced, a recent leak delivered official-looking press renders. If you were planning to pre-order one of these foldable phones to take advantage of Samsung’s signature double storage offer, you may want to think twice.
For those unfamiliar with the benefit, customers who pre-order one of Samsung’s phones can have their storage doubled at no cost. So if an early adopter pre-ordered a 256GB model, Samsung would upgrade that to 512GB for free. The company has been running the promotion since the Galaxy S23 series.
