If you were watching the 2020 Oscars tonight (February 9), you got a glimpse of Samsung's next foldable phone At the annual film awards ceremony, Samsung aired an ad introducing the Galaxy Z Flip as a teaser for this Tuesday's Galaxy Unpacked event
It's only a 30-second spot and no specs are revealed, but the visuals from Samsung's foldable phone ad confirm many of the Galaxy Z Flip rumors we've heard Specifically, the Z Flip is a flip phone that opens up to show a full screen, much like Motorola's Razr, which launched last week
In addition to its inner screen (rumors say it is a 67-inch OLED display with an ultra-thin glass layer), the ad also introduces a smaller screen on the outer cover That display is only large enough to show the time and incoming calls
Like the other ads, Samsung's Z Flip spot is intended to put the phone's best foot forward That means you won't see a crease in the center of the external display like what you see in the Z Flip image sent to Engadget by a tipster This is a problem that also appeared on Samsung's last foldable phone, the Galaxy Z Fold
The ad does not mention any other features of the Galaxy Z Flip, nor does it indicate a price Allegedly, Samsung plans to sell this flip phone for $1,400, which is below the $1,500 Razr price
The only thing that is certain from Samsung's advertising is that the Galaxy Z Flip will be seen at the Galaxy Unpacked event on February 11 You can also follow Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked live stream to see what else will be announced
