As expected, Samsung will officially launch the Galaxy S20 series at the Unpacked event taking place on February 11. Besides, the Korean technology giant will also likely introduce the Galaxy Z Flip in this event.

This price is significantly lower than the Motorola Razr’s $ 1,500 selling price, using the outdated Snapdragon 710 chip. Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Flip is expected to use the Snapdragon 855 chip – which was featured on many high-end flagships last year.
