What will be announced at Samsung Galaxy Unpacked?
We’re pretty sure, thanks to Samsung leaks and hints, that we’ll see the new Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Galaxy Z Fold 5. The main teaser image is of a Z Flip, so Samsung isn’t hiding much here, asking us to “Join the flip side” (which isn’t even a pun, come on Samsung).
The Z Flip 4 and Z Fold 4 were very iterative updates to the flip and fold form factors, so hopefully the Series 5 will bring some changes.
Rumors and leaks suggest that the Z Flip 5 will have a larger cover screen similar to the Motorola Razr 40 Ultra. Both the Flip and Fold will likely run the Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chipset, but we’ll have to see if it’s the same special edition found in the Galaxy S23 series, which has a higher clock speed.
The Z Fold 5 could – finally – close completely flat. Rival book-style foldables such as the Google Pixel Fold and Huawei Mate X3 close flat, but the Z Fold 4 doesn’t. Other than that, it may be another case of refinement rather than revolution .
We could also see a new Galaxy Watch 6 after numerous leaks suggest there will be a regular model and a return to the ‘Classic’ edition after 2022’s Galaxy Watch 5 Pro. We hope that means a return to the wonderful physical rotating bezel found on previous Watch Classic models.
It’s also possible that Samsung will update its line of tablets, possibly with a Galaxy Tab S9. We were fans of the Tab S8, a real alternative to the iPad.
