Hold on to your seats, new foldables are coming
The launch of Samsung's new foldable phones is getting closer and closer. We know almost everything there is to know about them, and we also know Samsung has announced a launch event for them. Both the Galaxy Z Flip4 and the Z Fold4 will see the light of day on August 10th, on the company's next Unpacked, where a bunch of other Samsung announcements are expected as well. In case it wasn't already clear that foldable phones will be front and center during the event.
It's no secret to anyone by now that Samsung's upcoming flagship line, the Galaxy S22 series, is just a few weeks away from its debut. All three of the S22 phones have leaked in thorough detail for a few months, and Samsung has already confirmed that an event will happen sometime in February. While the company stopped short of giving an exact date, speculation and rumors trying to nail it down have been running wild. Now a newly leaked image attempts to clear things up, and according to it, the S22 announcement is very, very close.

New Galaxy S21 FE leak details Samsung’s January 2022 launch plans
Launching sooner than you’d expect
The Samsung Galaxy S21 FE has had a pretty eventful journey even before its official launch. Leaks first claimed a possible September-October unveil for the device before suggesting that it was canceled altogether. However, the Galaxy S21 FE leaks have reignited again over the last few weeks, with a recent rumor implying that it could launch at CES 2022 in early January. Now, Jon Prosser has shared more concrete details about the availability of Samsung's next Fan Edition device.
Samsung's new Unpacked teaser hints at colorful foldable news
A potential comeback for Moto Maker-like customization
Remember Moto Maker? Motorola used to make it easy to personalize your Moto X or Moto G with whatever colors you liked the most, but it quietly discontinued the program several years ago. The Galaxy Z Fold3 and Z Flip3 are the newest foldable devices from Samsung, complete with top-notch specs and, at least in the case of the Z Flip3, a more affordable price. With another event on the horizon, the company might be ready to pick up the mantle from Motorola, with the introduction of customizable colors for both of its folding phones.

If you want to know the date for Samsung's next Unpacked event, just ask Bixby
Guess it had to be useful for something eventually
Like any tech company, Samsung loves to keep its upcoming devices as secretive as possible to surprise its fans during an official launch event. Of course, there's a certain saying about best-laid plans, which is why we have a pretty good idea of all of the upcoming gadgets arriving this fall. After accidentally showing off a couple of unannounced products in a promotional video, Samsung is officially teasing its next Galaxy Unpacked event with a bit of help from Bixby.

Expect to see new Galaxy S20 variants
Yes, you read that title right. Even though Samsung just had an Unpacked event slightly over a month ago, where the Galaxy Note20, Galaxy Buds Live, Galaxy Watch3, and other products were revealed, Samsung is going to hold yet another livestream in just a couple days.
It's almost time for the Galaxy Note20 Unpacked livestream — here's how to watch it
The show starts at 7 a.m. Pacific, 10 Eastern
We're now just a couple of hours away from Samsung's Note20 Unpacked livestream. It'll likely bring us many mentions of the word "innovation," a tour of the company's electronics headquarters, a bunch of celebrity cameos, and, oh yes, new smartphones, a new tablet, and a new smartwatch. You can watch the event as it happens right here, starting at 7 a.m. PDT (10 a.m. EDT).
Samsung hypes this week's Unpacked event with new video teasers
Everything will be revealed August 5
Samsung has been slowly trickling information out about its August 5th Unpacked event. The show itself was announced earlier this month, and it was clarified that five "power devices" would be introduced at the event about a week ago. To keep interest high, Samsung is counting down the days with short videos teasing not just the products, but the whole program itself.
Samsung already announced that its next big launch event, Galaxy Unpacked, is set for August 5th. It was already expected that the Note20 would make an appearance, but now Samsung has revealed that no fewer than five new devices will be shown off at the event.
Leaked video appears to confirm ANC on Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Buds Live
It won't be much longer before these beans sprout
Samsung's Galaxy Buds series has offered some of the best wireless earbud options for Android users. The second-gen Galaxy Buds+ haven't been available for very long, but the company is already planning to unveil a new set of truly wireless audio offerings. A promo video of the Galaxy Buds Live has leaked on Twitter, giving us one of the closest looks yet at Samsung's new buds.
Samsung’s Galaxy S line for 2020 appears to have undergone a significant reshuffle, apart from the fact that its name now matches the year. Taking cues from the iPhone 11 series, the base model no longer has a separate, visibly lower-end ‘e’ branding, but is simply called the Galaxy S20, nor is it a slouch anymore. The new entrant—the S20 Ultra—takes the experience a notch higher with (slightly) superior internals, sitting right above the Plus model. The ambitious trio of flagships universally commits itself to 5G connectivity in the US, ditching the 4G-only variants for good.
Samsung and Spotify have been partnered for almost two years now, and tucked into the bevy of announcements during today's Samsung Unpacked was an expansion of that partnership. The Galaxy S20, Galaxy Z Flip, and Galaxy Buds+ will include several new, quick ways to listen to and share your favorite Spotify tunes.
Think the S20 livestream looks mediocre? It’s because Samsung is filming it on S20s
Crushed shadows and some strange colors during Samsung's live stream didn't highlight video chops too well
If you've been wondering why the quality of Samsung's Unpacked live stream has been a bit iffy and at least partly mediocre, suffering from some strange colors and crushed shadows, the company may have just issued an explanation: It's filming the event from a Galaxy S20.
