LONDON: The “victory selfies” being captured by athletes on the podium at the Paris Olympics have sparked a spike in sales of the foldable phone being used to take them, phone maker Samsung said.
The technology giant is a long-term Olympic partner, and for this year’s Games is offering those on the podium the opportunity to take a selfie with their fellow medallists using its new foldable Galaxy Z Flip6 smartphone.
