According to Newsis, a Korean media outlet, Samsung’s third batch of the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition sold out in just 6 minutes. The second batch sold out in 10 minutes, and the first in just 5 minutes, marking a new milestone for the Galaxy Z series.

Detailed sales numbers have not yet been released. It’s worth noting that the Special Edition is available only in South Korea.

What Does the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition Offer?

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition is thinner than the Z Fold6 (10.6 mm folded, 12.1 mm unfolded) and features larger screens (8.0-inch main, 6.5-inch cover, 7.6-inch main, 6.3-inch cover). Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor, it includes a 200 MP primary camera, Wi-Fi 7 connectivity, and S Pen support.

Currently, there’s no indication that Samsung will release the Z Fold Special Edition in other markets, and with the Z Fold 7 launch approaching, the wait for broader availability may continue.
