It was a trend of the sort a few years back for phone makers to team up with popular figures or characters to launch customized editions of their phones. That practice isn’t so common anymore but in recent times, we have seen quite a number of classic customized models. In the past two years, Samsung has been consistent in unveiling the Thom Browne custom edition of its flagship foldable phones – the Galaxy Z Flip and Z Fold. We may likely see a second customized edition for the latest Galaxy Z Fold3 and Z Flip3 if the latest leak is anything to go by.
According to the leak, the Galaxy Z Fold3 and Z Flip3 Thom Browne editions will soon be joined by the Wooyoungmi Edition. In case you don’t know, Wooyoungmi is a Paris-based South Korean menswear clothing brand launched by the designer Youngmi Woo. The brand has garnered a reputation as one of the critically acclaimed clothing brands in his home country – South Korea. Thus, it shouldn’t be surprising that Samsung is working on a customized edition of the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Galaxy Z Flip 3 with the brand.
The leak which emerged on Twitter via a tipster named GaryeonHan, also gives us a glimpse of the design of the product and its accessories. It seems to have a lot of accessories, by the way. Some of the stuff spotted include a leather carrying case for the Galaxy Z Flip 3, a lanyard of sorts, and a clear protective case. On its part, the Galaxy Z Fold 3 will feature a bog-standard phone case and a holster for the S Pen Pro.
There is no information on the release date but we expect the custom edition to make its debut in South Korea soon.
