There’s been quite a bit of rumors about where and when the next Samsung Unpacked launch event will be, and now we’re hearing from a report out of Sammobile that the date has been chosen, as well as a location.
Samsung Unpacked will happen on July 10, and it’ll be based in Paris.
Paris might sound like an odd place for Samsung to hold its second biggest launch event of the year, but with the Summer Olympics happening in Paris this year, it makes plenty of sense. Samsung is a big sponsor of the Olympics and typically creates an Olympic version of their latest flagship phone. So why not bring media to Paris to launch the new Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Fold 6 this year?
What to expect from Samsung Unpacked
Samsung typically holds two Unpacked events each year. The first event is typically in January or February, and that’s where the new Galaxy S is announced. Normally, it’s just the Galaxy S; for example, this year, it was the Galaxy S24 lineup, and Samsung did tease the Galaxy Ring. But that’s it. The second event tends to have a lot more products and happens in July or August. That’s this Unpacked.
Last year, at Unpacked in Seoul, Korea, Samsung unleashed the Galaxy Z Flip 5, Galaxy Z Fold 5, Galaxy Tab S9 series, and the Galaxy Watch 6 (and Classic). However, this year, it could be even more product-packed.
Obviously, we’re expecting to see a Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 6. But we’ve recently seen rumors of Samsung doing a Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultra, in fact we’ve even found proof of it just today. There’s also talk of the Galaxy Tab S10 series, Galaxy Watch 7 series, and, of course, the Galaxy Ring. We’re also due for a new pair of Galaxy Buds. Last year, Samsung did launch a pair of Galaxy Buds FE in October with the Galaxy S23 FE, so that could happen again this year.
Either way, this Summer is going to be a busy one, with plenty of products from Google, Samsung, OnePlus and even Apple, to check out.
