Samsung May Raise Galaxy Prices in Europe

Samsung Galaxy S series models and the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7 could become more expensive in Europe if reported RAM cost increases start affecting retail pricing.

Reported price changes in Europe

A new report says Samsung may raise prices on some of its phones in Europe from June. The expected increase is around €100, with the Galaxy S series and Samsung’s next foldables named as the main models affected.

The report does not confirm whether the increase would apply only to base storage versions. That leaves open the possibility that higher-capacity variants could also move up.

Why memory costs matter

RAM pricing has been rising, and that creates pressure across the smartphone market. Until now, large phone makers such as Samsung and Apple were said to be absorbing higher memory costs by cutting spending elsewhere and improving internal efficiency.

That may be getting harder to maintain. When memory prices keep climbing, premium phones are usually the first place where brands try to recover part of the extra cost.

Which Samsung phones are in focus

The report points to Samsung’s premium lineup rather than its lower-priced devices. That includes the Galaxy S series, Galaxy Z Fold7, and Galaxy Z Flip7.

Foldables are especially exposed to component cost changes because they already sit at the high end of the market. Even a relatively small increase in memory cost can have a visible effect on final pricing.

What this could mean for buyers

For buyers in Europe, the main thing to watch is whether Samsung adjusts pricing in June as reported. If that happens, shoppers may also see differences between storage tiers as Samsung responds to memory costs.

The report also suggests Samsung may not be the only brand affected. If memory shortages continue through the second half of 2026, other phone makers could follow with similar price moves on flagship devices.

Final take

Samsung Galaxy S series phones, Galaxy Z Fold7, and Galaxy Z Flip7 may be entering a more expensive period if RAM costs keep rising. For Samsung Galaxy accessories, Komodoty readers can view the relevant collection here: https://komodoty.com/collections/samsung.
