Samsung launched its latest premium foldable phones the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Z Flip 3 at its 11 August Galaxy Unpacked event.

Both the Z Fold 3 and Flip 3 are available to pre-order now, ahead of their 27 August release. Samsung’s offering a variety of pre-order perks to sweeten the pot (all of which we’ll detail below).

While the top-end Galaxy Z Fold 3 boasts a starting price that exceeds £1,500, the smaller Z Flip 3 starts at just under £1,000. Despite a lower price point, the Flip 3 still offers some of the Fold’s most coveted productivity features including S Pen support.

The Z Flip 3 also offers the Z Fold 3’s dual-screen ‘Flex Mode’ for multitasking while the phone is folded. You can, for instance, use the top half of the screen for video calls while preserving the bottom half for brightness and volume controls.

The Z Flip 3 works seamlessly with the new Galaxy Watch 4 and Watch 4 Classic too (here’s where to pre-order those). The Watch 4 smartwatches launched alongside the foldables with the Galaxy Buds 2. Flip 3 owners can coordinate the Cover Screen wallpaper with the Watch 4, bringing to the fore the One UI Watch features Samsung previewed at its MWC 2021 event in June.

Here we’re focusing on where to buy the Galaxy Z Flip 3 including details on pricing, retailers and pre-order deals. If you want to dive into all the nitty-gritty technical details of the Flip 3 including camera, display and specs see this handy article.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 pre-order deals

Z Flip 3 pre-orders benefit from enhanced trade-in, similar to the promotion Samsung launched in the US last month. With an eligible phone, UK customers can claim an additional £250 on top of the standard trade-in rate towards a new Galaxy Z Flip 3 (or Z Fold 3).

Customers can also get a free Galaxy Note Pack (worth £79.99) which includes a Flip Case, S Pen and 25W Fast Charger. You can also access Samsung Boost for free, which is a collection of premium apps worth over £250. Just be sure to within 30 days of purchase.

Customers also get a year of Samsung Care+ with Z Flip 3 pre-order. Care+ is Samsung’s premium device protection service that covers water and accidental damage as well as back cover and replacements.

Head to Samsung to see all these offers.
