Guess what? It happened again.

The company on Sunday announced that units for phase two have been sold out - also within the same number of days - thanks to rising demand for the new-generation device.

However, Samsung said in a statement to Khaleej Times that a third wave will start on October 23.

The first pre-order phase was supposed to run from October 6 to 16 - but units were sold out after just three days. The second batch started on October 17.

UAE consumers who pre-ordered the Galaxy Fold from October 17 onwards will get the devices delivered to them through a concierge starting from October 24.

All customers will have access to a dedicated expert who is on-call 24x7.

The Galaxy Fold is being retailed for Dh7,399. Those who pre-ordered in the first batch were able to get it for Dh7,199.
