Samsung Unveils Highly Anticipated Foldable Phones on July 26

Samsung. Mark your calendars, Samsung enthusiasts! Exciting news awaits as the tech giant gears up for its upcoming Unpacked event on July 26. Renowned for unveiling new foldable phones and smartwatches during these summer showcases, Samsung has hinted at thrilling surprises in store for its loyal Galaxy Z Flip and Galaxy Z Fold fans.

While specific details remain under wraps, Samsung has previously disclosed its plans to introduce fresh foldable devices at this highly anticipated product launch event in Seoul. As the pioneer in the budding foldable phone market, Samsung faces increasing competition from the likes of Google and Motorola, both of whom have recently entered the arena with their own foldable handsets. Hence, the forthcoming announcement of the next Galaxy Z Flip and Z Fold at the July 26 event is pivotal for Samsung to maintain its leadership position amidst emerging competitors.

This Wednesday's revelation came after Samsung had already disclosed its intention to hold its major product launch at the end of July in Seoul—a first for the company in its home country. In a press release, Samsung expressed its choice of location, citing the influence of Seoul's dynamic culture and innovation on global trends. Moreover, the decision reflects Samsung's strong confidence in the foldable category. For those unable to attend the live event, fret not, as Samsung plans to provide a livestream on YouTube and other channels for enthusiasts worldwide to join in the excitement.

Adding to the anticipation, Samsung has opened reservations for its upcoming Galaxy devices, offering a delightful incentive of $50 in Samsung credit to those who reserve a device between July 5 and July 25. Following the usual protocol of Samsung's early reservation system, interested individuals need only provide their name and email address to secure a reservation. The $50 credit can then be redeemed during the pre-order stage.

While Samsung has remained tight-lipped about the specifics of its upcoming products, leaks have managed to provide some intriguing insights. Notably, reports from Korean news outlets The Elec and ET News, as well as renowned leaker Ice Universe, suggest a new water-drop style hinge that would enable a thinner design for the Galaxy Z Fold 5. Additionally, Ice Universe's sources indicate that the Galaxy Z Flip 5 might feature a significantly larger cover screen, aiming to rival the spacious external display of the new Motorola Razr Plus.

Furthermore, Samsung typically unveils new smartwatches around August, leaving room for speculation that the rumored Galaxy Watch 6 might make an appearance at this month's event. Leaks from Ice Universe and reputable gadget leaker Steve Hemmerstoffer (via the blog My Smart Price) suggest the beloved rotating bezel might return in the next high-end version of the Galaxy Watch, potentially named the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic.

All eyes will be on Samsung on July 26 as they take the stage and reveal their latest innovations. Stay tuned for more exciting updates!
