5 things to expect for Samsung Galaxy Unpacked – tipped for July 10
In This Article
Samsung could unveil the next generation Galaxy Z Fold and Flip smartphones as well as the Galaxy Ring as soon as July 10, according to a new report.
The company is planning to host an Unpacked event in Paris, which is around the time Samsung traditionally hosts its summer showcase of new products. The Unpacked showcase would be a little earlier than usual, with the firm often setting the table for an end of July launch.
However, with the Olympic Games getting underway in the French capital this summer, it’s possible Samsung both wants to embrace the Olympic spirit and be out of there before the Games themselves get underway.
Of course, the date is still to be confirmed, but the often reliableSam Mobilereckons its been pencilled in July 10. Last year Unpacked took place on July 26, so it would certainly be earlier.
So what could we expect from Samsung’s latest event?
Galaxy Watch 6 Classic is 24% off right now
Samsung’s Galaxy Watch 6 is down to £304.99 at Amazon right now. That’s a £75 saving on the RRP of the Wear OS smartwatch.
Galaxy Z Fold 6 range
Samsung’s flagship foldable and most expensive phone is set for sixth generation release this year. All the hype is about a even more premium Ultra version of the handset… or a potentially cheaper version that brings the price down to affordability for mainstream smartphone users. Thesmart money appears to be on the Ultra version.
Recent rumours have suggested that at least on the standard edition Samsung will significantly reduce the thickness of theGalaxy Z Fold 6, while boosting display resolution for both the internal and external displays. It could also be significantly lighter too.
Galaxy Z Flip 6
The fashion-focused flagship foldable is set for another refresh this year, but the usual scuttlebutt about changes is largely absent right now. That may be because theZ Flip 5range got a big upgrade last year. It might be just a case of refreshing the internals and perhaps the cameras this time around. We’ll see.
Galaxy Ring
Samsung has been teasing the Galaxy Ring during Unpacked in January, and we learned a little bit more about it during Mobile World Congress in Barcelona a month later.
Samsung is still keeping its cards close to its chest on theGalaxy Ring, but our own Max Parker got a closer look during MWC. He opined: “It’s far too early to make any sweeping judgements about the Galaxy Ring with details so scarce, however there’s every chance this product could offer most of the benefits of a Galaxy Watch in a much sleeker design. We can’t wait to hear more.”
After Unpacked we’ll proable have the full picture with on specs, features, price, and release date for the big Oura rival. Can Samsung’s take on the health focused smart ring take it straight to the top of the market, amid rumours Apple might be planning its own incursion?
Galaxy Watch 7
There have been reports Samsung may make a drastic change andditch the popular circular displayand go back to an Apple Watch-like rounded rectangular screen. We’d be absolutely shocked if that was the case. It would certainly shake up the range, but not necessarily for the better. Whatever changes Samsung does make, we’re expecting a standard edition and either a Classic or a Pro variant.
Snapdragon X Elite-powered Galaxy Book
The newQualcomm Snapdragon X Eliteseries of chips promise to do for PC laptops what the Apple Silicon M-Series processors have for Apple MacBook models. Qualcomm also announced a 4nmSnapdragon X Pluschipset this week. This chipset sits below the Elite chipset so it might be a candidate for some of Samsung’s more consumer friendly laptop models.
We expect Samsung to jump on this bandwagon with a new Galaxy Book laptop. It could be a variant of the existingGalaxy Book 4series, which currently runs on Intel CPU chipsets.
