Samsung is working with the luxury fashion house Maison Margiela once again. This time, the partnership will bring a custom-made Galaxy Z Flip5 smartphone, and pre-orders/registrations are already live in China. The phone design is still unknown – it is likely to be revealed once the registrations are done, which is set to happen on November 30.
According to leaked images, the design on
the back panel will be colorful, unlike the black-white aesthetics in the
predecessor Galaxy Z Flip4. We also are likely to see a custom-made leather
case and a unique theme for the cover display.
The phone will remain the same on the
inside – a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, a 6.7” foldable AMOLED display and a 12
MP dual camera on the outside. If we use the price tag of last year's edition
as a reference, the Z Flip5 Maison Margiela will easily surpass US$ 1,500 and
could reach US$ 1,700, depending on exchange rates.
