New Galaxy Fold Order - free upgrade?

I ordered a Galaxy Fold 2 at the beginning of the month direct from Samsung, as they had a discount off RRP. I presumed they were clearing stock in advance of the Fold 3.

However, my delivery date is not until 28th July. Is there history of Samsung sending a newer model for late orders instead of the previous model? I know the announcement is not expected until August 11th.

I am not bothered if I receive the Fold 2, that is what I ordered after all. Just wondering if Samsung has ever sent out an unexpected surprise?

Is this question for real?

Yes - Apple does this if they announce new product when you have an unshipped order in.

Cancel your order and wait for the Fold 3 because it will be $1600 instead of the $1800 fold 2.

I totally agree with you. Absolutely no reason to order a new Fold 2 right now. The tougher screen would be reason enough for me to wait over buying the previous version.

No, why would they? Especially if your delivery date is a whole month sooner than when the 3 would be shipping.

I am new to Samsung - don’t they ship when they announce the phone? Or is it always three months after announcement?

Usually it is 2 weeks after the announcement - 28th August is the rumoured release date.
