Earlier this week, reports said that Samsung would release the Galaxy Z Fold 6 SE on October 25th. Although this is about a month later than expected, it is still in line with expectations.
It turns out Samsung may be launching an ultra-slim version of the Fold 6 even sooner than that. A purported launch event invitation has been leaked, and it’s a nice ad for the foldable, highlighting the foldable’s main design change: reduced thickness.
The video introducing the ultra-thin Galaxy Z Fold 6 SE ends on October 21, a different announcement date.
The origin of the clip is ice universea trusted Samsung leaker and critic. It’s 12 seconds long, but it’s long enough to understand that thinner flip phones are on the way.
This video shows a person delivering mail to someone in a fairly square envelope. A person slips an envelope under the door. This is the old-fashioned way of receiving mail.
The recipient opens the envelope and removes the “invitation”. This is an open device with the folded screen turned on. The display will say “You are invited” and indicate the announcement date of October 21st. It’s next Monday, and the announcement event will apparently be held on Samsung.com.
It’s too early to tell whether Samsung will host a virtual event for its thin folding smartphone. After all, rumors say the phone will initially be available only in China and South Korea.
I mean, I love this ad. It’s short and to the point. The Galaxy Z Fold 6 SE is so thin that it can be slipped under a door in an envelope. That’s the message Samsung sends. Also, mobile phones, especially those with foldable screens, have to be very durable to be carried in an open position like this.
While this clip may be great, it does have its drawbacks. This makes a mockery of thicker foldable phones, including all fold and flip models made by Samsung. Let’s not forget that Samsung is developing ultra-thin foldable products because the likes of Honor and Xiaomi have developed them first, putting pressure on the Korean giant. yeah.
On the other hand, this invitational video proves that Samsung can come up with smart marketing ideas that don’t rely on Apple and iPhone bashing. Then again, Apple used an envelope to launch a thin MacBook Air design that everyone in the computer industry tried to copy. Samsung’s advertising concept, once again, is not completely original.
As for the actual thickness of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE, the latest rumors say it will be 4.9mm when unfolded and 10.6mm when folded. The regular Galaxy Z Fold 6, which cannot be slipped under this door, measures 5.6 mm unfolded and 12.1 mm folded. Although the size reduction is significant, it doesn’t quite match the Honor Magic V3’s 4.4mm/9.3mm dimensions.
