Prices are going up on many different goods and services, and technology is no exception. Global events over the past year, from the implementation of tariffs to interruptions in oil shipments, are pushing companies to raise the cost of smartphones, tablets, and more for consumers. At this point, it’s refreshing when a company doesn’t raise prices—like when Apple dropped a brand-new MacBook for just $599.
It’s not just new products seeing price hikes. As reported by Phone Arena, Samsung just increased the prices on a number of its devices, including some smartphones, and a lot of tablets. That includes the following phones, which seen their prices change as noted:
-
Galaxy Z Flip 7: from $1,219.99 to $1,299.99 (512GB)
-
Galaxy S25 FE: from $709.99 to $749.99 (256GB)
-
Galaxy S25 Edge: from $1,219.99 to $1,299.99 (512GB)
You’ll notice that the company’s latest flagship smartphones, the S26, S26 Plus, and S26 Ultra, are absent from this list, which is a silver lining of sorts. Of course, those devices are relatively new, and already exist within the company’s priciest tier—though you can find deals and discounts already if you are willing to wait.
Samsung’s tablets have been hit much harder than the smartphones. Samsung is raising prices on seven different models of tablets—eight if you differentiate between the wifi and 5G version of the Galaxy Tab A11 Plus. In addition, the company is raising prices on each storage variant. The Galaxy Tab S11, for example, gets a price hike no matter whether you opt for the 128GB, 256GB, or 512GB model. Here are the increases so far:

Now, just because these are the new MSRPs for these devices, doesn’t mean you’ll necessarily pay full price. As with the Galaxy S26 line, you may find phones like the Z Flip 7 on discount from retailers like Amazon, so shop around before making a purchase. That said, these price increases may have a ripple effect across markets: Even stores offering discounts could raise prices to accommodate the new MSRPs. Rarely does a company raising prices mean that things stay the same. Even more rarely does it mean prices will go lower.
