Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE price leaks: Should you buy last year's Flip instead?
TL;DR A retailer has listed European and UK pricing for the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE.
The foldable phone is listed at ~€1,056 in Europe and ~£887 in the UK
This would make the Z Flip 7 FE significantly cheaper than the Z Flip 6 was at launch.
We got our first hint of Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Z Fold 7 prices yesterday after a retailer apparently leaked European and UK pricing for the foldables. Now, the retailer has purportedly leaked pricing for the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE.
SammyGuru spotted a retail listing for the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE (codenamed B7R). The outlet didn't name the retailer or link to it, but we discovered that this is the same retailer (LambdaTek) that listed Z Flip 7 and Z Fold 7 prices.
EU pricing
UK pricing
The listing reveals that the 128GB Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE starts at ~€1,056 in Europe and ~£887 in the UK. Meanwhile, the 256GB model is pegged at ~€1,131 in the EU and ~£949 in the UK.
It's worth noting that LambdaTek's European prices seem to fluctuate for all three foldables. I'm guessing there's some dynamic currency conversion happening in the background. The retailer's UK prices seem to stay the same, though, making it more reliable.
The Galaxy Z Flip 6 launched at £1,049 for the 256GB model and £1,149 for the 512GB variant. Meanwhile, the Z Flip 7 is listed at ~£1,094. So the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE would have a much lower launch price than both models at ~£887.
In saying so, the Z Flip 7 FE looks like the Z Flip 6 with an Exynos processor. So you might want to consider last year's Flip phone instead, as it should be significantly cheaper by now. But those who want an extra year of updates should keep the new phone in mind.

Mushy Wording Lets NATO Commit to Trump's Military Spending Demand
NATO leaders agreed on Wednesday to a goal of spending 5 percent of their gross domestic product on defense. But that doesn't mean each member nation will actually spend that much. The difference lies in a bit of mushy diplomatic language that lets the NATO secretary general, Mark Rutte, claim that he delivered on a spending demand issued by President Trump. The brief and unanimously approved communiqué that NATO issued after leaders wrapped up their annual summit says that 'allies' — not 'all allies' — had agreed to the 5 percent figure. Mr. Trump floated that target, up from the current 2 percent, early this year in a push to have Europe and Canada spend more on their militaries instead of relying on the United States for security. At the time, few believed it was realistic, given that nine of NATO's 32 member countries still had not reached the 2 percent spending pledge that was set in 2014. Several were balking at the 5 percent commitment as recently as Wednesday, emboldened by an assertion last weekend by Prime Minister Pedro Sanchez of Spain that 'we're not going to do it.' Mr. Sanchez said Spain would spend 2.1 percent of its G.D.P. on defense, 'no more, no less,' because that was all his country needed to meet military capability targets set by NATO. Spain currently spends about 1.28 percent of G.D.P. on defense, according to the most recent official figures available. The language compromise, struck between Mr. Sanchez and Mr. Rutte last weekend, let both sides claim victory. Want all of The Times? Subscribe.

This regional report provides a detailed data-centric analysis of the recommerce market Europe, covering market opportunities and risks across consumer segments (peer-to-peer and business-led resale); product categories; sales channels; and resale formats. With over 60+ KPIs at the regional and country level, this report provides a comprehensive understanding of recommerce market dynamics. Europe's recommerce landscape is advancing through a combination of policy enforcement, digital platform integration, and consumer alignment with sustainability. While maturity levels differ across Western, Northern, and Eastern Europe, several region-wide trends are influencing the next wave of recommerce early-stage or informal resale markets, Europe's recommerce ecosystem is being shaped by coordinated action between government, enterprise, and platforms. Over the next 2-4 years, resale will shift from a secondary channel to a compliance-anchored, consumer-facing business model embedded in the product lifecycle. Europe's recommerce market is becoming structurally competitive across verticals such as electronics, fashion, and furniture. While the regulatory environment is harmonized at the EU level, execution varies by country, resulting in local champions and regional consolidators. The competitive edge in Europe will belong to players that combine resale infrastructure, compliance capability, and cross-country scale. With sustainability mandates hardening and consumer trust in structured resale rising, recommerce will shift from experimentation to institutionalization by 2027. Key Insights Competitive Landscape in Europe Is Organizing Around Verticals, Compliance Readiness, and Platform Integration Players able to align with Digital Product Passport requirements and integrate with circular taxonomies will have regulatory and investor advantage. Consolidation will intensify across platforms and branded resale, particularly in fashion and electronics. Offline-to-online recommerce formats will scale, including physical resale counters and digital trade-in interfaces inside major retailers. Electronics Recommerce Is Formalizing Through OEM, Retail, and Policy-Driven Trade-In Models European electronics recommerce is scaling through OEM trade-in programs and refurbishment platforms, supported by legal requirements for repair and reuse. Brands such as Apple, Samsung, and Fairphone operate certified trade-in and refurbishment services across the EU, while retailers like MediaMarkt (Germany) and Fnac Darty (France) offer in-store buy-back programs. The EU's "Right to Repair" initiative and broader Circular Economy Action Plan are mandating lifecycle extension of consumer electronics. OEMs and retailers are responding by investing in refurb infrastructure, diagnostics, and reverse logistics. Compliance with EU directives will become mandatory for resale channels. Expect stronger collaboration between OEMs and certified refurbishment partners in countries like Germany, Netherlands, and France. Apparel Recommerce Is Being Integrated Into Brand and Retail Operations Major apparel brands and retailers across Europe are launching internal recommerce platforms or partnering with resale specialists. Zalando (Germany), COS (Sweden), Decathlon (France), and H&M are running brand-owned resale platforms in response to EU sustainability directives. Rising pressure from ESG benchmarks and eco-conscious consumers is pushing fashion brands to shift from fast fashion to circular models. The EU Strategy for Sustainable and Circular Textiles is incentivizing this shift. Brand-owned recommerce will become standard in mid- to high-tier fashion. New business models such as take-back for credit, refurbishment, and resale-as-a-service will expand into department stores and multi-brand retailers. Platform-Centric Models Are Scaling With Verification and Cross-Border Logistics Europe's recommerce infrastructure is being scaled by platforms like Back Market (France), Refurbed (Austria), and Vinted (Lithuania), which offer certified resale with integrated logistics, repair, and verification. Consumer preference for convenience and warranty-backed resale is reinforcing platform models. EU-wide logistics networks and payment systems allow seamless resale across borders, with Back Market now active in 17+ European markets. Market share will concentrate among large platforms that can meet EU compliance standards, integrate repair partnerships, and provide localized operations across Western and Central Europe. Regulatory Alignment Is Structuring the Economics of Reuse Europe's regulatory framework - anchored by the Circular Economy Action Plan, Ecodesign Directive, and Extended Producer Responsibility schemes - is setting rules for resale eligibility, data disclosure, and performance benchmarks. The European Commission's new Digital Product Passport, expected to roll out by 2026, will standardize information around product origin, use, repairability, and environmental impact directly enabling resale flows. Regulations will move from optional compliance to enforceable obligations. Platforms and brands unable to meet traceability and repair criteria may be excluded from the resale ecosystem. Sustainability Goals Are Converging Across Retail, Government, and Finance Sectors Retailers are aligning sustainability targets with resale activation, supported by financial incentives from EU green funds and national-level carbon reduction schemes. Examples include IKEA (Sweden) Buy Back & Resell, and UK-based John Lewis' fashion resale partnership with Reskinned. Carbon footprint disclosures, green finance obligations, and ESG-linked brand value are making recommerce a strategic lever. Sustainability-linked loans and reporting metrics are being tied to circular initiatives. Recommerce will become a reporting dimension in ESG and CSRD frameworks. Retailers will scale recommerce not only for revenue, but to qualify for tax and financing benefits linked to circular compliance. Electronics Recommerce Is Driven by Brand-Led Programs and Platform Ecosystems Back Market (France) operates as one of the region's largest certified electronics platforms, partnering with over 1,500 refurbishers and offering standardized product grading and warranties. It raised over €450M in funding and is now active across major EU markets. Refurbed (Austria) has expanded into 7+ European markets with a focus on green electronics. Its certification protocol is aligned with EU eco-design requirements, giving it compliance advantages. Fnac Darty (France) and MediaMarktSaturn (Germany) are integrating trade-in and refurbishment desks inside retail stores, with pilots also tied to EU digital repairability scores. Fairphone (Netherlands) incorporates modular design and resale as part of its core offering, with trade-in support and spare part resale contributing to extended lifecycle strategies. Fashion Recommerce Is Consolidating Through Branded Channels and Regional Marketplaces Zalando (Germany) launched its Pre-Owned resale platform in 2020 and has expanded it to 13 countries. It integrates resale into the same logistics and account infrastructure as new sales. Vinted (Lithuania), with over 80 million users, is the largest P2P fashion resale platform in Europe. It acquired secondhand app United Wardrobe and launched Vinted Go to control last-mile logistics. COS Resell (H&M Group, Sweden) and Decathlon 2nd Life (France) operate branded recommerce platforms focusing on curated resale with in-house quality control and product prep. Reskinned (UK) partners with fashion brands such as Finisterre and Joules to process and resell customer returns and used apparel. Furniture and Lifestyle Recommerce Is Expanding via Retail Pilots and Reverse Logistics IKEA (Sweden) runs the Buy Back & Resell initiative in over 30 European locations. It offers vouchers for returned furniture, which is then refurbished or resold. In the UK and Germany, Emma - The Sleep Company has introduced mattress resale trials, collecting used products for cleaning and recommerce. Tylko (Poland) and Vogogo (Germany) are examples of startups using online configuration and resale options to support custom furniture lifecycle models. Strategic Moves: Acquisitions, Logistics Control, and Compliance-Driven Expansion Vinted's acquisition of United Wardrobe and launch of Vinted Go highlight vertical integration across fashion resale and logistics. Back Market's partnerships with repair networks across France and Germany allow it to meet EU obligations and ensure consistent product grading.

Trump celebrates ‘great victory' at NATO summit as allies promise spending increase
US President Donald Trump expressed a friendly tone toward NATO allies. NATO members agreed to increase military spending. NATO chief Mark Rutte praised Trump. US President Donald Trump struck a conciliatory tone toward NATO allies on Wednesday, framing an expected deal on increased defence spending as a 'great victory for everyone' at their summit. Everything has been carefully choreographed at the gathering in The Hague to keep the volatile US president on board: From chopping back the official part of the meeting to putting him up overnight in the royal palace. The strategy seemed to be working - for now - with Trump seeming keen to share the plaudits for a deal set to see the 32 countries commit to spending 5% of output on defence by 2035. 'It's a great victory for everybody, I think, and we will be equalised very shortly, and that's the way it has to be,' said Trump, as European allies seek to catch up with US spending on defence. 'I've been asking them to go up to 5% for a number of years, and they're going up to 5%... I think that's going to be very big news,' he said. Hosting the meeting, NATO Secretary General Mark Rutte told reporters that Trump was in an 'excellent mood' at the dinner hosted on Tuesday by King Willem-Alexander in his royal palace, and that the US leader appeared inspired by his hosts. 'The day begins in the beautiful Netherlands. The King and Queen are beautiful and spectacular people. Our breakfast meeting was great!' he posted on the Truth Social network. Entering the meeting, leaders lined up to declare the summit's planned spending hike as 'historic'. NATO allies say the increase is needed to counter a growing threat from Russia but also to keep Trump engaged, with the US leader long complaining that Europe spends too little on its own defence. Belgian Prime Minister Bart De Wever said: 'As Europeans, we should realise that our long break from history is over.' The continent needed to take responsibility for its own security 'in a very difficult time', added De Wever. Kin Cheung/Pool/Getty Images The pledge divides up the spending into 3.5% of GDP on core defence costs - just above the current US level - plus another 1.5% to broader security-related areas such as cybersecurity and infrastructure. With that deal all but clinched, attention turned to the basic foundation of the alliance - its mutual defence clause that says an attack on one is an attack on all. Trump rattled his allies by appearing to cast some doubt on the validity of this promise - known as Article Five of the NATO treaty - telling reporters on the way to The Hague that it 'depends on your definition. There's numerous definitions of Article Five.' But Rutte played down the comments, saying he believed that Trump and the US were still 'totally committed' to Article Five. And when pressed about the collective pledge while meeting Rutte on Wednesday, Trump said: 'We're with them all the way.' Britain's Prime Minister Keir Starmer dodged multiple questions seeking clarity over Washington's stance. We live in a very volatile world and today is about the unity of NATO, showing that strength. Keir Starmer In an earlier message, probably not designed for public consumption, Rutte heaped flattery on Trump, praising him for bringing everyone on board for the spending hike. 'Europe is going to pay in a BIG way, as they should, and it will be your win,' Rutte wrote in a gushing, caps-filled missive to Trump, who promptly posted it on social media. 'You are flying into another big success in The Hague,' wrote Rutte. Underpinning the leaders' discussions on defence was Russia's invasion of Ukraine, with Trump poised to meet the war-torn country's president Volodymyr Zelensky on the summit sidelines. Zelensky is playing a less central role here than at previous summits, to avoid a bust-up with Trump after their infamous Oval Office shouting match. But Trump described him as a 'nice guy' and added that he was talking to Russian President Vladimir Putin about the war, saying: 'I think progress is being made.' Rutte said that allies would send the message that support for Kyiv was 'unwavering and will persist'. But despite his insistence that Ukraine's bid for membership remains 'irreversible', NATO will avoid any mention of Kyiv's push to join after Trump ruled it out. Hungary's Kremlin-friendly Prime Minister Viktor Orban was more categorical. 'NATO has no business in Ukraine,' he said. 'My job is to keep it as it is.'
