Samsung’s Unpacked event – where we expect to see its latest foldables – is now rumored to be in July rather than August.
Samsung could be unveiling its Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 foldables, and the Galaxy Watch 6 series – sooner than expected – with a new rumor pointing to a July launch date.
The company has historically held this Unpacked in August each year, even after decoupling it from the IFA trade show in Berlin. For 2023, however, Samsung is thought to be bringing the event forward, to the last week of July.
This latest rumor comes from Sammobile (opens in new tab), and follows an earlier report that noted the company was mass-producing the hinges for its foldables sooner than it has done in previous years.
To be clear, a July launch wouldn’t be significantly earlier that previous years, but shifting the date forward by two weeks would mean the on-sale date would also be brought forward by two weeks too.
