Final month, Xiaomi launched its first smartphone with a clamshell kind issue and a foldable show, the Combine Flip, a direct competitor to the Galaxy Z Flip 6. After debuting the cellphone in China, the corporate confirmed that it could launch the cellphone in Europe with a price ticket between EUR 1,300 and EUR 1,400. Nonetheless, there was no details about when it could launch the cellphone there and precisely how a lot it could price within the area. Effectively, now now we have some data on the matter that may very well be troubling for Samsung.
On X/Twitter, @Sudhanshu1414 claims that Combine Flip is already accessible to buy in Europe from just a few retailers and prices EUR 1,299 within the area for 12GB RAM + 512GB storage variant, which is the one reminiscence configuration the corporate is providing there.

As compared, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 prices EUR 1,319 for a similar reminiscence configuration in Europe. So, the one from Xiaomi is undercutting the one from Samsung by EUR 20. Though that’s minimal, the Combine Flip is now technically extra inexpensive than the Galaxy Z Flip 6.
Will that hamper the gross sales of Samsung’s newest clamshell smartphone? Effectively, we don’t assume so. That’s due to two causes. First, whereas the Combine Flip has glorious specs, it’s nonetheless not as sturdy or polished because the Galaxy Z Flip 6. Second, since it’s the firm’s first such machine, individuals might keep away from shopping for it in favor of the one from Samsung. That being stated, Samsung might lose just a few gross sales of its newest foldable clamshell cellphone in Europe as a result of launch of the Combine Flip. It could be attention-grabbing to see which cellphone most individuals go along with.
