At PCMag, we know products—our experts review and recommend thousands of them. Our deals team works tirelessly to find the lowest prices on the technology you want most.

After some hands-on time with Samsung's new Galaxy Z Fold 5, we're putting the new foldable smartphone through its paces for a full review. But if the specs sound good to you—dual screens, a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 for Galaxy processor, and 12GB of RAM with up to a terabyte of storage—pre-order before the phone is released on Aug. 11 for the best value.

After their phones are released, Samsung is notoriously stingy with price drops for a while, so you're not likely to get a deal this good for a year or so. Here's a rundown on the Galaxy Z Fold 5 offers you can get from various merchants.
