What to anticipate at Samsung’s Unpacked 2024 occasion
Samsung’s newest Unpacked occasion will kick off on July tenth. The corporate has already launched its newest flagship telephones this 12 months, unveiling the S24 household. However now it’s time for its spinoff smartphones: the foldables. That and the long-teased Galaxy Ring. The tiny wearable is slated to reach “in or round August,” so it will be extra of a shock if the system didn’t seem at Unpacked. The ring will measure coronary heart fee, motion and respiration to assist observe your sleep.
I’m anticipating the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 to seem, though with minor tweaks that may not warrant an improve from final 12 months’s foldables. That mentioned, rumors recommend that Samsung would possibly use the identical 50MP digicam because the Galaxy S23 and Galaxy S24 within the Flip 6, which has historically had less-powerful cameras than the opposite Samsung flagships.
On high of all that, Samsung is more likely to provide refreshed smartwatches and probably an replace to its wi-fi buds. (Sure, there have been leaks.) Samsung is about to imitate Apple’s AirPods by adopting a stem design on its buds. That’s humorous, as a result of when Samsung revealed the Galaxy Buds Stay in 2020, it trumpeted the shortage of an “awkward stem.”
