Last year, Samsung launched the Galaxy Fold, the first-ever foldable smartphone in the market. It appears that the South Korean tech giant is not yet done with its foldable smartphone offer. Fans anticipate that Samsung would launch the Galaxy Z Flip this month, and a new set of videos is now hyping up fans ahead of its expected launch.
New Galaxy Z Flip Hands-on Videos
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is going to rival the recently introduced Motorola Razr considering the similarity of their designs. Since foldable smartphones are still on its early stages and their pricing, buyers would like to know if the device is robust enough. The early release of Motorola Razr could be an opportunity for Samsung to properly position its foldable smartphone, given the negative feedback about the Motorola smartphone from those who were able to get a hold of it.
Some Motorola Razr users claimed to have noticed a creaking sound when opening or folding the device. A new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip hands-on video shows that Samsung does not have this kind of issue. In fact, it gives a snapping sound when the user closed the foldable smartphone.
New Galaxy Z Flip Video At The Oscars
A couple of days ahead of its anticipated launch at the Samsung Unpacked event, the Galaxy Z Flip appeared at the Oscars in an advertisement. The ad confirmed the design, specs, and features, which various reports earlier leaked. Although the company does not explicitly say that it is the Galaxy Z Flip, based on earlier leaks, we can confirm that it is indeed the next foldable Samsung flip phone.
Bloomberg's Mark Gurman captured the Oscars ad of the Galaxy Z Flip and shared it on his personal Twitter account. Samsung hit the right chords in advertising its upcoming smartphone with a revolutionary design in the Oscars. The show is a good platform to reach countless viewers and potential buyers of the smartphone.

The Motorola Razr retails at $1500 while the Galaxy Z Flip would retail at $1400. Based on the specs of both clamshell folding smartphones, Motorola Razr has rather mid-range specs.
