The emergence of foldable smartphones is probably the biggest change in the way of interacting with mobile devices that has been seen in the genre in more than a decade. That is why Samsung wants to offer some extra facilities in experimenting with these models through its “buy and try” program .

In the past week, the South Korean giant has launched a program through its official website called “Buy and test” that includes its two most recent folding phones, Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5G and Galaxy Z Fold 2 5G . This allows you to test the operation of the terminals for 100 days instead of just 15 days to decide whether to return or keep it.

With the intention of increasing the sales of this type of “Premium” terminals as well as being more open to its acquisition for the next launches , a trial period of up to more than three months is offered for the first time to just make the decision final. Of course, you have to buy the phones first.

Compared to last year, at least these models are a bit more affordable, although they are still quite expensive for most average users. In the United States, the Z Fold 2 is currently offered at a cost of at least $ 1,450, while the Z Flip 5G is down to $ 1,200.

In addition to the confirmation that in 2021 there will be new attempts with the folding design, in the latest earnings report of the company for the third quarter of 2020 it was revealed that Samsung mobiles increased their sales by 51% compared to the same period. in 2019 . Of course, after the initial problems found in the original Z Fold it is still believed that there are many users who are wary of these types of phones.

For now, it has been confirmed that Samsung’s “Buy and Try” program will be available on the company’s official website until April 1 for the United States. There is no confirmation yet if this will extend to Spain or Latin America.
