Amazon Canada Cuts Labour Day Prices by Up to 77% Across Tech, Home and Beauty

Q: Will waiting for Black Friday actually cost you more on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 than these final Labor Day deals?

Probably not—at least not based on the evidence available now. The final Labor Day prices on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 are already unusually aggressive for such a new device, with the standard Fold 8 listed around $1,650 for 256GB and the Fold 8 Ultra starting around $1,800, while some Samsung Labor Day offers reportedly cut as much as $350 off the Ultra with no trade-in required. Black Friday could match or slightly beat those deals, but there is no clear sign yet that it will decisively undercut them. The strongest evidence in the supporting coverage says these straight Labor Day discounts will be “tough to beat until Black Friday,” which suggests Black Friday is the next realistic chance for similar or better pricing—not a guarantee of better pricing. What matters is deal structure. Labor Day offers include direct markdowns, which reduce the upfront price immediately. Black Friday promotions may instead lean on trade-ins, carrier credits, gift cards, or bundle perks. Those can look larger on paper, but they do not always lower the actual cash price more than today’s no-strings-attached discounts. For a buyer who wants an unlocked Fold 8 or Fold 8 Ultra without a trade-in, waiting for Black Friday could mean missing a known $300 to $350 instant discount in exchange for a possible deal that is no better. If you are flexible about carrier plans, trade-ins, or store-credit bundles, Black Friday may offer equal or better total value—but not necessarily a lower sticker price.
