What to expect at Samsung’s summer Unpacked
Samsung’s been teasing its upcoming foldables for the last several weeks. In early June, a Newsroom post pointed to the company bringing “an Ultra-experience” to “a smaller and more portable form factor.” That apparently includes a “powerful camera” and “AI-powered tools.”
The following week, the company said in another blog post that its “newest Galaxy Z series is the thinnest, lightest and most advanced foldable yet.” It appears to be following in the footsteps of the slim and lightweight Galaxy S25 Edge, which was released in May.
Samsung seems to be especially focused on scaling the capabilities of its foldables’ cameras with the help of AI. It noted in a subsequent blog post, “The camera will only get smarter — helping users capture life’s moments more vividly and make everyday experiences more seamless, personal and impactful.”
Galaxy Z Fold 7
In an exclusive interview with , Drew Blackard, Samsung’s senior vice president of mobile product management, previewed the thinness of the new design, saying, “It’ll feel like a traditional bar-type smartphone, but it’ll have all of the benefits of a foldable.” Based on rumors we’ve seen, the Z Fold 7 could be about 0.34 inches thick when closed, give or take, and weigh just over 200 grams.
It’s possible Samsung could unveil the Z Fold 7 and then the Z Fold Ultra, or perhaps the Ultra will be the only version of the Fold.
Galaxy Z Flip 7
Folding the device along the other axis, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 could bring a larger 4.1-inch cover screen and a faster Exynos 2500 processor, according to rumors we’ve been tracking. Renders of the flagship foldable Galaxy Z Flip 7 suggest Samsung could nix the physical camera notch and opt for an edge-to-edge cover display.
There are also murmurs of a more affordable Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE phone. Leaker Evan Blass shared renders of the rumored device, which appears similar to the Galaxy Z Flip 6, but the phone could swap out the Snapdragon chip for an Exynos processor.
Galaxy Watch 8
This one isn’t as mysterious, since Samsung basically previewed its Galaxy Watch 8 plans to ‘s Vanessa Hand Orellana when she talked to Dr. Hon Pak, the company’s senior vice president and head of digital health, about new health features to expect. That said, we could see more than just the Galaxy Watch 8, with a Galaxy Watch 8 Classic and new colors for the Galaxy Watch Ultra based on reporting by SammyGuru.
An animated invite for July’s Unpacked event begins by showing the slim side profile of a device that then splits into two phones. One of these phones folds like a book, and on-screen text at the end reads “Ultra Unfolds.”
