Description:
Samsung has accidentally sent out an early press release, revealing the
timing of the next Galaxy Unpacked.

FULL STORY ======================================================================

Wed heard rumors that Samsung would hold its next Galaxy Unpacked event in late July , and now thats been confirmed, as the company accidentally posted
a press release saying as much on its Australian site.

We assume accidentally, because the press release has since been removed, but at the time of writing a cached version of the press release is still accessible, as spotted by leaker @sondesix .

The press release tells us that this Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event will be held in Seoul in late July, but doesnt provide an exact date. It also states that this is where the company will unveil its next generation foldable devices. The press release (archived): pic.twitter.com/85cq1lgU2m June 7,

While the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 arent mentioned by name, thats almost certainly what well see, as theyre both widely expected to land at the next Galaxy Unpacked, and Samsung mentions "devices" plural,
so well see more than one foldable.

There isnt really much else to take from the press release, beyond a vague claim that the company will showcase technologies and experiences that will captivate worldwide audiences. However, we can take a good guess at the exact date of Galaxy Unpacked, as a leak previously pointed to July 26 , which
lines up nicely with the late July timing mentioned here. New hinges, new chipsets, and a bigger screen

We also have a good idea of what to expect from the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and
Galaxy Z Fold 5, thanks to various leaks and rumors. The gist being that theyll probably have a new hinge design that allows the two halves to sit
flat when folded, plus the same chipset as the Samsung Galaxy S23 series.

There might also be camera improvements, and in the case of the Samsung
Galaxy Z Flip 5, well likely see big upgrades to the cover screen, which
could be 3.4 inches, compared to 1.9 inches on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 .

Of course, while this press release is focused on foldables, its likely that well see other things at this event too, with the Samsung Galaxy Watch 6 and Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 lines also expected to be unveiled at this next Galaxy Unpacked.
