Samsung fans, mark your calendars. The company just announced its next big event, and it’s happening on July 9 in Brooklyn. Yep, Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2025 is just around the corner, and it looks like Samsung is about to drop a bunch of new stuff all at once.
Foldables Are Getting a Boost
The spotlight this year is expected to land on the next-gen foldables Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7. Both are said to be thinner and lighter, with better displays and some solid performance upgrades under the hood. The Flip might even come with a bigger outer screen, which should make it more useful when closed.
Of course, we’ll likely see some new processor upgrades too, possibly Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, or Samsung’s own chip if they go that route again.
One UI 8 Will Be Official
Also launching at this event: One UI 8 Samsung’s newest software, based on Android 16. If you’ve seen the beta running on Galaxy S25 phones, you already know it’s got smoother animations and some cool AI tools. Features like AI Select (copying or translating anything on-screen) and the new Now Bar that gives on-screen suggestions could actually be useful in day-to-day stuff.
New Watch and Earbuds?
There’s also talk of the Galaxy Watch 8, maybe even a new “Ultra” model. Longer battery, more accurate tracking, you know the drill. And don’t be surprised if Samsung shows off new earbuds too. Rumors say Galaxy Buds 3 and Buds Core are on the way, with a new look and better sound.
A Foldable Surprise or XR Tease?
Now here’s where things get interesting: leaks suggest we might get a glimpse of Samsung’s first tri-fold phone or even an XR headset. Nothing confirmed, but we’ve seen hints from their partnerships with Google and Qualcomm. If they tease it, expect headlines.
How to Watch
You can catch the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2025 event live on Samsung’s official site or YouTube channel. The livestream begins at 10 AM ET on July 9. Pre-orders will likely open the same day, with shipping expected later in July.
