Apple has been relayed, by mistake, a promotional video of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 from its official account on Chinese social networks. A blunder to say the least embarrassing.
While Apple has still not launched a folding smartphone, the firm has found itself, well involuntarily, the advertising of its main competitor in this area. A message relayed from the account Apple Support On Weibo briefly highlighted the new Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7. The kind of error that does not go unnoticed.
Apple involuntarily promotes the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7
It is a publication that has enough to make any community manager sweat. In China, the Official Apple Support Account on the Weibo social network has published a video praising the merits of Galaxy Z Flip 7the new folding smartphone of Samsung. The error lasted only a few minutes, but long enough to be spotted and relayed by several Internet users, notably by the leaker renowned for Ice Universe on X (ex-Twitter).
We do not know precisely what caused this misstep. It could be a confusion of account or an external provider managing several brands at the same time. Be that as it may, Apple would have gone well from such a moment of loneliness, especially since this type of accidental communication can quickly be interpreted as an implicit recognition of the qualities of the opposing product.
Apple always absent from the folding smartphones market
This hiccup occurs while Apple is still absent from the scene of folding smartphones. According to the latest rumors, its first model, often called “iPhone Fold”, would not be born until 2026. It could take on a main screen of 7.8 inch and a 5.5 -inch external screen, a more compact format than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7.
In the meantime, Samsung continues to refine its formula. The Galaxy Z Flip 7, formalized at the beginning of the month, bet on a main screen of 6.9 inches, an external 4.1 inch slab, a new generation Exynos 2500 chip, as well as features doped at AI. All without increasing the price of the previous model, still set at 1199 euros.
