The footage does not provide any additional detail that we haven't seen in the recent renders and leaked images. There is still no information if Samsung's next foldable phone is using the new form of ultra-thin glass. But, the footage gives us an clear glimpse how the device will function in real world.
Going by the leaked video, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip is ridiculously long when unfolded completely. Previous leaks revealed that the phone will get 6.7 inches of display screen with a resolution of 2636 x 1080 resolution. Moreover, a popular leaker - Ishan Agarwal also claimed that Samsung is calling this colour option of the Galaxy Z Flip as Mirror Purple.
The smartphone is likely to be launched globally in San Francisco on February 11th at Samsung’s Unpacked event. However, the main highlight of Samsung's Unpacked event should be the highly awaited Galaxy S20 flagship smartphone.
