Galaxy Unpacked event 2025: What’s to Expect

Samsung is expected to introduce the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Galaxy Z Flip 7, and a new Galaxy Z Flip 7 Fan Edition (FE) at the upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event. Alongside the foldable phones, the company may also reveal the Galaxy Watch 8 series, including the Watch 8, Watch 8 Classic, and possibly a Watch Ultra 2. New wireless earbuds could also be part of the announcements.

Galaxy Z Fold 7: Slim Design (Leaked)

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is drawing particular attention ahead of the launch. Leaked images from retail marketing displays reveal a slimmer design with a reduced hinge size compared to the current Galaxy Z Fold 6. Reports suggest the device will measure about 9mm thick when folded and just 4.5mm when fully opened. This would mark a significant reduction in bulk and address past feedback regarding the foldable’s thickness. The display will feature a centre punch-hole camera and minimal bezels, which will enhance the device’s overall form factor.

Samsung has also shared some early information about the Galaxy Z Fold 7’s camera intelligence and visual search features, which shows a continued improvement in photography and software capabilities. Alongside the Fold 7, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and the fan edition Flip 7 FE are expected to feature design and performance upgrades, though specific details remain limited at this time.

The event will likely also showcase new wearables, including the Galaxy Watch 8 series with the Watch 8 Classic and a possible Watch Ultra 2 variant. Additionally, Samsung may reveal the next generation of its wireless earbuds.

According to industry insider Abhishek Yadav, the July event will cover a broad lineup of devices, reinforcing Samsung’s strategy to expand its foldable phone offerings while enhancing its smartwatch and audio product ranges.
