HONG KONG – September 07, 2023 – Samsung Electronics Hong Kong Co., Ltd. and Thom Browne today unveiled the new edition of an enduring partnership, bringing together sartorial style with cutting-edge technology and demonstrating a tireless commitment to quality and design. The Galaxy Z Fold5 Thom Browne Edition features a special edition Galaxy Z Fold5 and Galaxy Watch6 along with accessories that bring a level of sophistication fit for a table at the most exclusive gala.

 

“This continued collaboration with Samsung represents an evolution of what we’ve been creating together for years,” said Thom Browne. “Once again, we want to show that a perfect blend of top quality, innovative design and a classic aesthetic can become a powerful form of self-expression. I believe this Galaxy Z Fold5 Thom Browne Edition is the ultimate example of turning advanced technology into a bold statement.”

 

The new Galaxy Z Fold5 and the Galaxy Watch6 Thom Browne Edition exude elegance that is as striking as it is inviting with each piece of the collection expertly crafted with premium details.

 

“We are delighted to expand our longstanding partnership with the iconic Thom Browne, bringing together our shared vision of leveraging iconic style and advanced innovation in incredible new ways,” said Stephanie Choi, Chief Marketing Officer at Samsung Electronics’ MX Division. “These limited edition devices not only offer the versatile functionality of Samsung’s foldables but empower users to make a statement with their device and truly stand out.”

 

Bringing Black-Tie Elegance to the Galaxy Portfolio

 

The grandeur and luxury of a black-tie event serves as the inspiration for the design of this Galaxy Z Fold5 Thom Browne Edition, which is instantly recognizable from a distance thanks to the iconic and delicate design details.

 

The Galaxy Z Fold5 Thom Browne Edition features Samsung’s latest foldable technology and an homage to Thom Browne’s signature design elements such as black pebble leather and grosgrain details. The sleek exterior has been enhanced with Thom Browne’s bold red, white and blue signature stripes, fabric texture etched on the backglass, all accentuated with a black frame and gold hinge, plus gold rings around its camera lenses. The Galaxy Z Fold5 limited edition also comes with two distinct leather pouch cases and a stylish special edition S Pen, which provides a noteworthy addition to an instant classic.

 

The Galaxy Watch6 Thom Browne edition epitomizes timeless style. Complete with a distinctive Thom Browne aesthetic, the design features an exquisite gold-tone body, special watch face and the Thom Browne logo engraved on the side. Thom Browne’s signature red, white and blue colors have also been applied to the buckle, highlighting incredibly sophisticated attention to detail. This limited-edition Galaxy Watch6 comes with two leather straps featuring signature black pebble leather, as well as red, white and blue striped leather. These colors are also reflected in the 25W travel adapter, the coin-style watch charger, and an exclusive fabric USB-C to USB-C cable all brimming with Thom Browne’s trademark influence.

 

The collaboration doesn’t end with just the products either. The meticulously crafted Galaxy Z Fold5 Thom Browne Edition packaging toasts the iconic Thom Brown briefcase. Elevating the black-tie experience, the stylish packaging replaces the typical act of unboxing with the upgraded experience of unlocking a briefcase, while also being designed for preservation so consumers can keep hold of this memento. The packaging is also eco-friendly, utilizing the same certified paper as used in Samsung's smartphone packaging.
