Samsung is expected to unveil its next wave of foldable Galaxy phones at its Unpacked event on Wednesday, and rumors are pointing to a few new changes to the Z Fold and Z Flip series.
We might see a Z Fold 8 with a new, wider design, a Z Fold 8 Ultra with a similar look to last year’s Z Fold 7 and an updated Z Flip 8 clamshell that would continue to rival Motorola’s Razr phone lineup.
These rumored folding phones may also arrive alongside updates to the Galaxy Watch line, and Samsung has been teasing the development of XR Galaxy Glasses for some time; perhaps Wednesday will offer a closer look at such a wearable.
We’ll be counting down all of these final rumors and rounding up Samsung’s own teasers for its next wave of phones in this live blog, while bringing you live coverage of the phone reveals as they happen on Wednesday morning.
The keynote — which Samsung will stream live from London — kicks off at 9 a.m.
ET (6 a.m.
PT, 2 p.m.
BST).
