Samsung's teaser video on Twitter doesn't reveal much:

Some Twitter users have offered their interpretation on what the mysterious movements could mean, including a nod to the rumored foldable smartphone:

Rumors surrounding the next Galaxy S phone suggest a fairly usual spec and design update over the existing Galaxy S10 smartphone, but the camera is said to be getting a sizable upgrade - up to 108 megapixels.

We're also expecting Samsung's upcoming Galaxy S phones to feature 5G connectivity, as they'll likely run on Qualcomm's latest Snapdragon 865 mobile chip that supports 5G. Samsung's current Galaxy S10 generation comes in variants with and without 5G, as 5G connectivity was optional on Qualcomm's mobile chips in 2019.

Either way, we don't have long to wait to get the official details about Samsung's upcoming flagship device.
