The upcoming Unpacked will see the launch of a host of new hardware, including foldable smartphones, tablets, and smartwatches. Here's everything we expect Samsung to announce.
Samsung will unveil Galaxy Z Flip5 and Galaxy Z Fold5
Samsung will pull the wraps off its next-gen foldable smartphones, namely Galaxy Z Flip5 and Fold5, at the upcoming event. Both handsets will come with a 'water droplet' hinge, thinner bezels, and IPX8-level waterproofing. The Flip5 will feature a 6.7-inch, Full-HD+ AMOLED main display and a 3.4-inch square-shaped cover panel. The Fold5 will sport a 7.6-inch foldable display and a 6.2-inch cover screen.
Fold5 could be equipped with a 50MP primary sensor
The Flip5 and Fold5 will likely be powered by a Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip. The handsets should run on Android 13. The Fold5 is tipped to offer up to 12GB RAM and up to 1TB of storage. The handset could get a triple camera module comprising a 50MP main camera, a 12MP ultra-wide shooter, and a 12MP telephoto sensor.
Galaxy Tab S9 series will also be launched
The next big reveal at the Unpacked event will be the Galaxy Tab S9 series, which will include three models: Tab S9, Tab S9+, and Tab S9 Ultra. Tab S9 Ultra will be the largest variant. It will likely sport a notched display with an IP68 rating for water and dust resistance. The tablet could offer a 120Hz, 14.6-inch QHD+ AMOLED display.
