Even though Samsung managed to do it without really revealing its name , it seems the smartphone behemoth just could n’t help itself from teasing its next foldaway phone during the Oscars .
In eccentric you missed it , you may check out a recording of the commercial for yourself below . The commercial-grade all but guarantees that we ’ll see Samsung officially announce theGalaxy Z Flip(or whatever Samsung finish up calling it ) at itsGalaxy Unpacked event on February 11th in San Francisco .
While the ad did n’t reveal much about the speech sound we had n’t already gleaned fromprevious leaksand asupposed early hands - on video , there were a yoke of Modern titbit of note .

The first is that the ad gave us a good look that the Galaxy Z Flip ’s little exterior screen , which seem relatively high-pitched - res despite its lowly dimensions . The commercial also testify that the screen door is n’t just limited to black - and - ashen and can also be used to respond call in improver to control telling .
Samsung ’s Oscar commercial also suggests that the Z Flip is mean to be used both to the full open and while its screen is bent at a 90 - degree angle ( when it ’s presumably rest on a flat surface ) , which could direct to some interesting use cases .
The advertizing also showed off that like theoriginal Galaxy Fold , the Galaxy Z Flip still has a bit of gap between its folding screen door when penny-pinching , unlike the Motorola Razr which superintend to hide any noticeable openings thanks to Moto using a slightly different hinge . That enjoin , look at there have already beena issue of complaints about the Moto Razr ’s hingecreaking and making noise when being open and closed , Samsung retaining a small spread and essentially reusing the flexible joint from the Galaxy Fold is n’t of necessity a bad thing .
Sadly , the commercial message did n’t shed any light on whether the earpiece will have the rumor flexible glass CRT screen instead of a bendy charge plate presentation like we ’ve seen on the Galaxy Fold and Moto Razr . That would be a huge footstep forrader for foldable gadgets when it comes to general strength .
