The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip has been leaked
quite a bit recently — we are quite confident that we know what the device is
going to be both on the inside and out. Still, we can’t say the cat’s fully out
of the bag until a phone is officially announced, presented, and its specs
sheet made public.
However, a 3rd party company that has
inside knowledge can often spill the beans early. And it seems that’s the case
with the Z Flip today. Caviar is a company that creates luxury versions of hot
smartphones by “dressing” them in exquisite platings and engravings. And today,
it has added the Galaxy Z Flip to its portfolio. Shown on video and a rather
large image gallery, we can pretty much be sure how the Galaxy Z Flip is going
to look and operate.
Still, the website listing does not reveal
anything about specs and features. After all, Caviar concerns itself with
making popular phones look like expensive accessories, not with the
nitty-gritty of what processor is on the inside and how much RAM the device
has.
The promo material reaffirms the design of
the phone, the dual cameras with a small ticker screen on the outside, the
hinge operation, and the lack of a headphone jack. Caviar’s versions of the
phone will come in a cool Joker / Harley Quinn gold model (US$ 5,200), one with
carbon-shaped titanium plating (US$ 5,690), and one with patterned gold plating
(US$ 6,000).
These are all available for pre-order now
and the press release reaffirms that the Galaxy Z Flip will be announced at the
February 11 event. However, it does not dare mention an official launch date.
So, be aware that the Galaxy Z Flip might still launch all the way in April if
previous rumors are to be believed.
