We’re expecting theSamsung Galaxy Z Flip 5Gto get its official unveiling on August 5 (alongside several other new devices), and if you want to check it out ahead of time then a high-quality video promo just leaked out online.
Regular tipster Max Weinbach shared the brief clipon Twitter. We get a good look at the Galaxy Z Flip 5G from all angles – open, closed, and everywhere in between. Besides the copper color shown here, we might also seeblack and greenmodels.
As Weinbach mentioned in afollow-up tweet, the only real difference between the new 5G version of the phone and the originalGalaxy Z Flipthat launched in February – besides the 5G bit – is the bump from a Snapdragon 855 Plus to a Snapdragon 865 Plus chipset.
5G and CPU aside, the new Flip doesn’t bring anything that the old Flip didn’t have. The updated model is expected to have the same dual-lens 12MP+12MP camera, though it will be slightly different in size – 0.5 mm thicker and 0.1 mm taller.

The headline announcement at the event is expected to be about theSamsung Galaxy Note 20. We think that Samsung is going to unveil two or three Note 20 models in total – the standard Note 20, and the Note 20 Plus or theNote 20 Ultra(or both).
We might also see another folding phone in the form of theGalaxy Fold 2(or the Galaxy Z Fold), as well as theGalaxy Tab S7tablet. Some of these products might be announced in the days surrounding the event, according to the rumor mill.
