Samsung announced the Galaxy Z Flip 6 Olympic Edition model at the Unpacked event. This special phone is being given as a gift to every athlete participating in the 2024 Paris Olympics and Paralympics. The South Korean company started distributing Z Flip 6 Olympic Edition to almost 17 thousand athletes who will compete in the games.
Thus, athletes have the opportunity to experience the phone before the Z Flip 6 goes on general sale. The Z Flip 6 Olympic Edition comes in a special yellow color and features the logos of the Paris 2024 Olympics and Paralympics on the back panel. Each device comes with an eSIM provided by mobile operator Orange, and athletes are offered a 100 GB 5G internet package.
While the Samsung Wallet app comes preloaded with public transport cards that athletes can use, some Olympic apps are also pre-installed on the phone to “help athletes have new experiences and connect with new people while in Paris.”
Galaxy Z Flip 6 isn’t the first Samsung phone with a special Olympics version
Samsung has been among the official partners of the International Olympic Committee since the Winter Olympics held in Nagano in 1998. The company has been releasing customized Galaxy phones since the Winter Olympics held in Sochi in 2014. The company had previously prepared a special version of the Z Flip 3 5G model for the 2022 Beijing Winter Olympics.
