In case you missed it (though I doubt you did if you’re a BTS fan), Samsung has recently revealed the arrival of the Bora Purple colorway of its Galaxy Z Flip4 foldable, themed after global pop sensation BTS. Pre-orders have already been ongoing for a while now, but it will close by September 2, 2022! If you haven’t decided yet on whether or not to get one, here’s a look at the specs and other details you need to know.

The new colorway was announced alongside a breathtaking music video of “Life Goes On” and complemented by a new rendition of “Over the Horizon”, produced by BTS’ Suga (Min Yoon-gi). “Borahae” is a term popularized by their vocalist, V a.k.a. Kim Taehyung, which combines the two Korean Words: Bora (Violet) and Saranghae (I love you). This term, translated to “I Purple You.”  is used to express love and endearment among the fans of the group.

I’ve seen the mobile phone up-close during Samsung’s Z Flip4 and Z Fold4 launch and I must say, it really is pretty! Knowing that you have the same phone as BTS is also a good mood booster, right?

If the vouch by BTS wasn’t enough, the Galaxy Z Flip4 comes packed with upgrades, including a stronger 3,700mAh battery equipped with Super Fast Charging, a stronger frame with a slimmer hinge and straightened edges. Additionally, the new flip’s cover screen allows users to do more without having to open the phone.

You can take photos on the cover screen, check notifications, and even reply to messages on that small window! It fits perfectly on my hand when closed and there’s also more screen space than usual.
