Launch date reconfirmed

While many of these specifications have already been leaked, having them consolidated as we approach the launch month is beneficial.

It has been reported twice now that Samsung is preparing for an Unpacked event on July 22nd in London to introduce its new foldable lineup.

Seoul Economic Daily, a reputable financial publication with close ties to Samsung, has mentioned the date in a recent article. Additionally, Samsung Malaysia has hinted at the same date by offering a discount deal starting on July 22nd.

This will be the third and fourth instances of the date being leaked, indicating that it is likely set in stone. Official confirmation from Samsung is expected soon as the event draws near.

With recent revelations about design and cases, there is little left to uncover about Samsung’s upcoming foldable range. The next model is anticipated to be named the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, alongside the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8.

Mark your calendars for July 22nd.
