Samsung’s foldable smartphone reportedly costs $1,770, launches in March

Samsung intrigued the world with the announcement last week that it would launch a smartphone with a folding display sometime early next year. Now a report from South Korea's Yonhap News Agency adds a few more details to Samsung's secretive tease.
First is an actual name; according to Yonhap's sources, the phone will be called the 'Galaxy F'—presumably that's 'F' for 'Foldable.' The second big claim in the article is a price: $1,770 (₩2,000,000) for Samsung's cutting-edge smartphone. That's a big increase from the ~$1,000 flagships of today, but if this rumor pans out, the Galaxy F wouldn't even be Samsung's most expensive phone.
