According to a recent report from TheLec, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip2 will not arrive before the Galaxy S21 series. The new Galaxy S series models will launch in the Galaxy Unpack next year. However, the Galaxy Z Flip 2 will arrive after the first quarter of next year. Also, @DSCCRoss, earlier claimed that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip2 will be delayed until next summer.
Samsung Electronics released the Galaxy Z Flip earlier this year instead of the Galaxy S20. Although both products made their debut on the “Samsung Galaxy Unpack 2020” in February, the Galaxy Z Flip and Unpack events took place in the same month, while the Galaxy S20 only appeared in March this year.

Taking into account market competition, the demand for the Galaxy S series and the Galaxy Z Flip series seem to be clashing. This is exactly why the successor to the Galaxy Z Flip needs to arrive after the first quarter of next year.
