Samsungâs next generation batch of devices is coming next month. The company has officially announced that Galaxy Unpacked will happen on July 10 at 6 a.m. PT/9 a.m. ET. The main event will be live-streamed and hosted from Paris, France, about two weeks before the opening ceremonies for the Paris Olympics. Samsung is a major sponsor of this yearâs games.
Samsung teases in a press release that new Galaxy AI features are coming âto the latest Galaxy Z series and the entire Galaxy ecosystem.â The Z series includes the Galaxy Z Fold 6, its folding book phone, and the Galaxy Z Flip 6, the folding flip phone.
Rumors have been percolating about the Galaxy Z Fold 6’s wider external screenâevolving into something more akin to the Pixel Fold or OnePlus Openâand thinner form factor, while the Z Flip 6’s biggest speculation is that itâs getting a price increase of about $100.
This will also likely be the debut of the much-ballyhooed Galaxy Ring, which Samsung told us it would debut back in January. Weâve looked at the Galaxy Ring placed behind glass but know little about its feature set or battery capabilities. We know it will be aggressively priced against the $300 Oura Ring, a mainstay in the smart ring category, and cheaper smart rings like the Evie Ring.
Hopefully, weâll also see what Samsungâs been cooking up in the smartwatch department. The third Samsung smartwatch since Google revamped Wear OS will likely bring a significant design change over its predecessors. Samsungâs launch of the Galaxy Watch FE seemed to signify that the look of the watch is on the way out. Rumors have indicated a bigger Pro variant of the watch is coming to compete with the Apple Watch Ultra.
Weâll know everything and much more after Samsung makes its announcements in July. The company offers discounts and perks if youâre willing to pre-order now without knowing whatâs to come.
