Samsung has been doing a special Olympic Edition version of its Galaxy flagships for years now and that isn’t going to stop with the Galaxy Z Flip 6. Following today’s announcement of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 6 at the company’s Unpacked event, Samsung has officially confirmed this exclusive new version of one of its latest phones.

As with past devices, it comes in its own unique color that’s different from everything available to consumers. However, the color does look fairly similar to the Yellow color of the standard version of the phone. Albeit with some Olympic and Paralympic logo detailing on the back. This exclusive device carries a long tradition that Samsung has had in partnering with the Olympic games. But it also carries some firsts.

Samsung says this is the first time that it’s ever passed these phones out to athletes before they were available to consumers. They also “come with a full suite of services and useful apps” the company says. Additionally, all the phones come preinstalled with a few different services to make the athlete’s lives easier while in Paris for the games. This includes Live Translation, Interpreter, Composer, Instant Slow-mo, and Photo Assist.

Samsung will hand out 17,000 Galaxy Z Flip 6 Olympic Edition phones to athletes

If you were hoping to get your hands on one of these special edition phones, sadly, you’ll have to admire it from afar. Samsung is exclusively handing these out to Olympic athletes. That being said, if you happen to be an Olympic athlete then you should be expecting to receive one of these once you arrive in Paris to compete.

In addition to the phone, Samsung has packed in some other goodies. For instance, the Olympic Edition comes with a special Flipsuit Case made of Venezia leather. It features a unique patina that was designed to represent the colors of the Olympic rings. On top of this, the phone comes preloaded with an in-app pass in Samsung Wallet that gives athletes even more benefits.

This includes free beverages at vending machines throughout the Olympic and Paralympic Village in partnership with Coca-Cola. Additionally, there’s an unlimited public transport access card for traveling around the city.

You can pre-order the normal Galaxy Z Flip 6 from Samsung

You might not be able to get your hands on one of these Olympic Edition phones. However, you can pre-order the normal version from Samsung starting today. The Yellow color on offer is even fairly close to the color of this model that athletes get.

Plus, Samsung is offering at least a few different promotions to help you save money when you pre-order the device, including trade-in discounts. If the Flip isn’t really to your liking, then the Galaxy Z Fold 6 is on offer too.
