San Francisco, Feb 10 (SocialNews.XYZ) South Korean tech giant Samsung is expected to announce Galaxy Z Flip, a folding phone at its unpacked event on Tuesday in San Francisco and now a commercial for the device aired during the Oscars Academy Awards show giving a first look at the phone outside of leaked images and videos.
The commercial was spotted by The Verge editor-in-chief Nilay Patel, who shared the video on Twitter with the caption: "Samsung just showed off the entire Z Flip during its Oscars ad. Small print says screen crease is normal, heh."
In the video, the Galaxy Z Flip is mostly shown sitting on a table and folded at a 90-degree angle.
Recently, a report claim that the device will be priced between $860 and $1,295.
The pricing is significantly lower than the $1,500 price tag of the Motorola Razr that is driven by the outdated Snapdragon 710 chipset, while the Galaxy Z Flip is expected to feature the Snapdragon 855 mobile platform.
Earlier, the device made its way to China's 3C certification database, revealing it is coming with a 15W charger in the box.
The device from this certification bears the SM-F700 model number which matches previous certification exploits.
It may feature a 6.7-inch tall aspect ratio display that can be folded and unfolded vertically.
The phone is expected to feature a dual-camera setup on the outside and a 10MP selfie camera.
The device will be able to record 8K video, and a 5G version will be released in South Korea.
Ice Universe had also earlier claimed that the upcoming fold may have an "ultra-thin glass display" instead of plastic.
The South Korean tech giant had also applied for trademarks in Europe for the Samsung Ultra Thin Glass or UTG and according to sources, this will be the material used for its next foldable.
