Samsung Galaxy Unpacked Event for Galaxy Ring, Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 Set for July 10: Report

Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event is likely to take place after a couple of months, according to a report. The latest leak related to the company’s next launch event is in line with previous reports that suggested the company would introduce new foldable handsets, the purported Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6, at the event in early July. Foldables aren’t the only devices expected to be launched at the firm’s next Galaxy Unpacked event — Samsung’s new Galaxy Ring is also tipped to make its debut.

A SamMobile report citing multiple anonymous sources states that Samsung will hold its next Galaxy Unpacked event on July 10. The event will reportedly be held in Paris, and will take place ahead of the 2024 Summer Olympics (Paris 2024) that are scheduled to begin on July 26. Samsung typically unveils new Galaxy Z series phones in the US, but made an exception in 2023 by holding the launch event in South Korea.

This year, Samsung is tipped to launch three foldable phones (it typically unveils two models) at its next Galaxy Unpacked event. The company could launch two book-style Galaxy Z Fold models, alongside the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6, which is a clamshell-style foldable. The rumoured Galaxy Z Fold 6 ‘Ultra’ model is expected to arrive with hardware upgrades and a higher price tag, and might not be available in some markets.

At its next Galaxy Unpacked event, Samsung is also expected to reveal more details about the Galaxy Ring, the company’s first miniature wearable with fitness tracking features. The company first teased the wearable device at its first Galaxy Unpacked event of the year, where it launched the Galaxy S24 series of smartphones. It also showed off the design of the Galaxy Ring at the Mobile World Congress (MWC 2024) in February.

Other devices that are rumoured to be in development, such as the Galaxy Watch 7 series and the Galaxy Tab S10 lineup could also be unveiled at the next Galaxy Unpacked event. Meanwhile, Samsung has also been working on an extended reality (XR) headset — the Samsung Galaxy XR — that could be launched at the event as a competitor to the Apple Vision Pro mixed reality headset.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy Z Flip Could Offer 25W Charging Just Like Their Predecessors

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 could be unveiled in the second half of this year. Multiple leaks and rumours about the next-generation foldable phones have already started appearing on the Web and most recently we get hints about their charging capabilities. The Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 have allegedly bagged certification from China’s Compulsory Certification (3C) website. The listing suggests the charging support on the upcoming devices, which is no different to the wired charging speed of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5.

In the 3C listing, spotted by Myfixguide, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 are listed with model numbers “SM-F9560” and “SM-F4710”, respectively. As per the listing, the handsets have a bundled Samsung EP-TA800 charger indicating 25W wired charging support, similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5. The listing also confirms 5G connectivity on the upcoming models.

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 is rumoured to carry a 4,000mAh battery. Last year’s Galaxy Z Fold 5 features a 4,400mAh battery, while the Galaxy Z Flip 5 houses a 3,700mAh battery. Samsung has used similar charging technology for its previous flagships like the Galaxy S series phones.

Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 in July in Paris. The book-style foldable is tipped to come with titanium frames similar to the Galaxy S24 Ultra smartphone. The Galaxy Z Flip 6’s cover screen is said to have 120Hz refresh rate. It is tipped to come in 8GB or 12GB RAM options with 256GB or 512GB storage options.

As per past leaks, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will be available in three colour options — dark blue, light pink, and silver. Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 could be offered in light blue, light green, silver, and yellow colourways.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy Z Flip Could Arrive in July Ahead of ‘Galaxy Z Fold FE’ Debut: Report

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 are expected to debut later this year as the successors to the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5, respectively, alongside a third, entry-level foldable phone. The Elec reports (in Korean) that the smartphone maker is planning to launch its foldable phones in the second half of 2024. Meanwhile, the South Korean firm is reportedly expected to finalise the specifications and suppliers for the Samsung Galaxy S25 series of smartphones by May.

According to the report, Samsung will start to produce components for the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 at the start of May, allowing the company to launch these foldable phones by mid-July. Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 on July 26 last year — its 2022 models arrived in August.

Two months after the anticipated launch of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Fold 6, Samsung is also planning to launch a cheaper version of the latter, called the Galaxy Z Fold FE, as per the report. This more affordable model will reportedly arrive without stylus support in order to keep costs low, and will debut around September or October — around the same time that Apple is expected to launch the iPhone 16 series of smartphones.

The successors to the Galaxy S24 series of smartphones are expected to arrive in early 2025, and Samsung is expected to decide the product specifications and component suppliers for its next flagship handsets by the end of May, according to the report.

Last month, it was reported that Samsung is working on a standard Galaxy Z Fold 6 and a Galaxy Z Fold ‘Ultra’ model that could be launched later this year — the latter would be the firm’s most expensive foldable, like the Galaxy S series, which also has an Ultra model. More details on the company’s foldable phones are likely to emerge in the coming weeks and months.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy Z Flip 6 Tipped to Be Available In These Colourways

Samsung is believed to unveil the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 in the second half of this year. Leaked unofficial renders gave us our first look at the company’s latest flagship Galaxy Z Fold 6 last month. Now, DSCC analyst Ross Young has shed light on the colour options of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6. The book-style foldable is said to come in three colour options, while the clamshell foldable phone could be offered in four distinct colourways. They are expected to include upgrades over the current Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5.

Ross Young (@DSCCRoss) on X (formerly Twitter) on Thursday (March 7) claimed that the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will be available in three colour options — dark blue, light pink, and silver. Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is said to come in light blue, light green, silver, and yellow colourways.

To recall, the Galaxy Z Fold 5 is offered in Cream, Icy Blue, and Phantom Black colour options. The Galaxy Z Flip 5 is available in Cream, Graphite, Lavender, and Mint shades.

As per past leaks, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 will sport a 6.2-inch outer screen and a 7.6-inch inner display. It could measure 153.5 x 132.5 x 6.1mm. On the other hand, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is expected to get a 3.9-inch cover panel. The Galaxy AI features available in the Galaxy S24 series could also land on the new foldables.

Leaked renders of Galaxy Z Fold 6 suggested a boxier design with squared edges. It indicated bigger inner and outer displays for the foldable with a centrally aligned hole-punch cutout on display and triple rear cameras.

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 are expected to go official in either July or August. The Galaxy Unpacked for the sixth generation Galaxy Z foldables is rumoured to take place in Paris.

Samsung to Hold Its Next Galaxy Unpacked Launch Event in Paris at an Earlier Than Usual Date: Report

Unofficial renders of Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Z series foldables have started showing up online, which indicate that we are possibly nearing the launch. However, Samsung has yet to officially drop any hints about the launch. Still, there’s more news from the rumour mill, this time coming from a publication which claims that Samsung will not only launch its Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 earlier in July, but also launch it in a new location, Paris.

According to a Korean publication TheBell, Samsung will launch or announce its 6th generation Galaxy Z foldables in mid-July. This is a bit different from a more recent leak by SamMobile which claimed that the foldables will be announced in early July instead. According to the Korean publication, the new launch timeline is about 3-4 weeks earlier than Samsung’s usual Galaxy Z series launch. The South Korean giant is reportedly doing this to target the European market and the launch also happens to fall in line with the 2024 Summer Olympics which takes place in Paris (France) on July 26.

As for the location, it too is a bit unusual, but the reasons given above seem to back this up well. Samsung has traditionally held its Galaxy Z series Unpacked events in the US. Last year was an exception with Samsung holding the launch event in its home market, Seoul (South Korea).

There’s also new information about the rumoured cheaper variant of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6. As per a recent report, Samsung is expected to announce a new ‘Ultra’ model of the Galaxy Z Fold, adding another tier to its foldables lineup this year. While this new model is said to have a new design with better camera capabilities, the more reasonably priced foldable will cut down on a few features.

As for the new and more affordable model, Samsung is expected to bring down the price of this upcoming foldable by removing digitizers that recognise the S Pen’s movement. However, the benefits of this for bringing down the manufacturing cost has yet to be proved as the existing Galaxy Z Flip series also does not offer the same, but is still quite expensive to produce. Samsung is reportedly also exploring options to automate its foldable lineup to reduce assembly costs.

Lastly, the report also hints that the new affordable foldable may not be announced or released alongside the usual foldable models in July this year. There is a chance that Samsung may release the product separately in the fourth quarter of the year. The new expected models are said to focus on improved hinge durability with reduced thickness. Samsung will reportedly stick to Qualcomm for processors to drive the new existing models, like on the Galaxy S24 series.

According to the same source, Samsung is reportedly requesting suppliers to complete quality testing of its new Galaxy Z foldable range by April itself. It also claims that suppliers should have no problems releasing the new products in 2-3 months. The original deadline was reportedly set for June. Samsung is also not expected to show off any new foldable designs this year.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, Galaxy Flip 6 Display Details Emerge Suggesting Design Changes

Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Galaxy Z Flip 6 are surely shaping up to be interesting foldables given the slew of recent leaks. The phones are expected to be announced mid-way in the coming year and will replace the currently available Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5, which have seen mostly iterative updates over their respective predecessors. There’s now a new leak that once again sheds light on the display aspect ratios of Samsung’s upcoming foldables, suggesting some design-related information in the process.

The leaked information comes from a post on Naver, a Korean blogging site, in which a tipster states that Samsung’s upcoming foldables will have different display aspect ratios compared to their respective outgoing models. The source in the short post hints that Samsung is working with a foldable smartphone display with a different aspect ratio compared to the currently available Galaxy Z Fold 5, adding that this device will be released as the Galaxy Z Fold 6.

As per the source, the changes brought to the inner display will also affect the design of the outer cover display. Indirectly, one can also expect the overall look and feel of the foldable to change as well, as changes to the displays will affect the cosmetic design of the end product.

Despite mentioning the aspect ratio, the tipster did not give out the aspect ratio of the upcoming foldable’s display. The leaked information as per the source comes from supply chain sources, hinting that it could be accurate.

The tipster also mentions details about the Galaxy Z Flip 6 stating that it too is expected to see some changes when announced. However, these changes are mainly to do with the inner display’s bezel, which the source claims will appear thinner than the outgoing model. The new cover display on the current Galaxy Z Flip 5 that sports a odd-shaped folder like design is also set to get some noticeable changes.

While an older report did mention larger displays for the upcoming Samsung foldables, the new leak surely hints at some much-welcomed changes. In the case of the Galaxy Z Fold 6, we can expect a complete redesign with a different form factor altogether keeping a refreshed display aspect ratio in mind. The Galaxy Z Fold 5’s taller, remote-control-like cover display is not exactly usable as a regular smartphone, like on the Google Pixel Fold or the OnePlus Open (Review), so we are hoping that this new aspect ratio brings users some relief from the current, crammed typing experience.

As for the Galaxy Z Flip 5, there’s plenty to improve on despite the bigger cover display update we experienced this year. The cover display desperately needs thinner bezels to match-up with the Motorola Razr 40 Ultra‘s edge-to-edge cover display. The same can be said about its inner folding display that can also be a bit broader like Oppo’s recently launched Find N3 Flip which should again make for more comfortable typing.
