Samsung will unveil the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, Galaxy Z Flip 8, Galaxy Watch 9, and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 on July 22 at its Unpacked event in London. The livestream begins at 2 p.m. BST (9 a.m. EDT, 3 p.m. CEST).

The Z Fold 8 is expected to feature a wider aspect ratio display, lighter design, and improved battery life. The Z Fold 8 Ultra will push performance further with a 5,000mAh battery, up from the standard model’s 4,800mAh.

Foldable Refinements

The Galaxy Z Flip 8 is rumored to be thinner and lighter than its predecessor while retaining the same cameras and display sizes. Samsung is expected to use the Exynos 2600 processor paired with faster charging speeds.

Leaked marketing images show minimal design changes from previous generations, suggesting Samsung is focusing on internal improvements rather than visual overhauls. The foldable screens are expected to be more durable than prior versions.

Wearables Get Bigger Batteries

The Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 will feature an 800mAh battery pack, up from 590mAh on the first-gen model. This should deliver longer battery life between charges, addressing a common complaint from users.

The Galaxy Watch 9 series will include standard and sport variants. Both lines will run Samsung’s One UI Watch and integrate tightly with Galaxy foldables and smartphones.

Galaxy Glasses Expected

Samsung is expected to unveil its long-rumored AI glasses alongside the device announcements. Details remain sparse, but sources suggest AR capabilities and Samsung Health integration.

The event will stream live on Samsung’s YouTube channel and official website. Pre-orders typically open immediately following the event, with shipping to commence within weeks.

Samsung’s foldable lineup remains the market’s most advanced, though competition from Huawei and others is intensifying rapidly.
