Samsung Teases New Foldable Phone in Surprise Ad During the Oscars

Arguably the world’s biggest smartphone maker Samsung has given a glimpse of its square-shaped foldable phone. The advertisement for ZFlip phone was aired during the Oscar Awards live show on TV today. The ad, however, was limited for the United States only. Samsung is scheduled to launch the much-awaited phone in San Francisco on February 11.

The Z Flip phone is expected to be priced less than Galaxy Fold which costs approximately Rs 1,41,000. If rumours are to be believed, Samsung Galaxy Z Flip foldable phone is expected to run on Qualcomm Snapdragon 855+ SoC coupled with 8GB of RAM, and 256GB of storage. A 6.7 -inch Full HD + Super AMOLED display should make the device a tempting option for elite phone buyers. The phone is likely to be packed with a 3300mah battery which should be good enough power backup on a snapdragon 855 chipset.

Samsung is set to fully unveil its flagship Galaxy Z Flip in a press event in San Francisco on February 11. The Korean phone maker will also introduce its other flagship smartphones such as Galaxy S20, Galaxy S20+, and Galaxy S20 Ultra during the event.
