Samsung’s Galaxy Note 20 and Z Flip 5G now come in red and white hues
July 31, 2025
Samsung thinks it has a simple way to spark smartphone sales going into the holidays: offer colors that were previously unavailable in the US. The company has unveiled a “limited” Mystic Red edition of theGalaxy Note 20as well as a similarly rare Mystic White version of theGalaxy Z Flip 5G.
Both are available now and cost the same as their regular-hued counterparts. That may work in your favor, as Samsung is stilloffering dealsthat include a $150 instant rebate on the Galaxy Note 20 (plus up to a $550 trade-in and a $100 eCertificate) as well as savings up to $1,000 on the Galaxy Z Flip 5G if you exchange an older phone.
We had a mixed view of the Galaxy Note 20, and Mystic Red doesn’t change that. It boasts a great display, solid all-round camera capabilities, and that signature S Pen, but the 60Hz screen, lack of expandable storage, and “glasstic” back dampened our enthusiasm. With sale prices, however, it’s a considerably better value and may be an easier pick than the higher endNote 20 Ultra.
The Galaxy Z Flip 5G, meanwhile, is a subtle but welcome improvement over theoriginal Z Flip, whether you get it in white or another shade. The 5G data is the obvious highlight, but it also makes the leap to aSnapdragon 865 Plusinstead of the older 855. It’s just a question of whether or not you value a foldable phone enough to buy the Z Flip 5G over one of its more conventional counterparts.
