One lucky ARMY, rayna (@nycnamjoon on Twitter), attended one of the pop-up events and shared how they were able to score a new phone!
At the Samsung pop-up event, your mission is to collect nine Galaxy Z Flip4 pins. But, first, you must collect stamps for a chance to draw pins randomly.

The “Bora Purple” one is so difficult to find that others literally offered rayna money for it! Yet, she held onto it and has now been able to get an actual phone.
lmao so if you go to the samsung pop up, you can collect nine pins, and if you get them all, you get a free galaxy flip phone. there’s a special bora one that’s impossible to find-random men have offered me $400 for it-but guess who got it, and guess whose getting a free phone 😭 pic.twitter.com/s1X9R2KcNV

Rayna explained that while some have spent hours multiple days searching for the purple pin, she was able to get it on the first try.
also to elaborate on this bc this is so funny: the entire pop up is quite literally armys & these middle aged men. some of them have spent 8 hours a day for 3 days straight at this pop up fighting for their lives to try and get a bora phone pin according to staff there

just thinking about these dudes manically circling this pop up, haunted by bts faces at every turn, yet to come on blast. it is honestly hilarious to me. excellent experience, 10/10

Love that for her! And, now, she has a phone absolutely dedicated to concert storage because you know that can consume so much space.
my exact thought

If you want to try your chances, you can go to 55 Regent St., London, or 60 10th Ave., New York.

According to rayna, you can go through as many times as you want each day, collecting eleven stamps for three random pin pulls.
you go through the exhibit and collect the stamps. when u get 11 stamps, u get 3 lucky draws for a pin, a photocard pack, a tote bag, or stickers!

Not only that, but you get even more super cute freebies, such as photocards, stickers, etc.
You have until August 31 to visit either Samsung Galaxy Unpacked Experience event. See the exhibit hours below.
