Samsung Unpacked is a marketing and launch event Samsung holds regularly to introduce new products. There are typically multiple Unpacked events each year.

When Will the Next Samsung Unpacked Take Place?

The next Samsung Unpacked event should take place around July 2025.

The most recent Unpacked was on January 22, 2025. The company announced the Galaxy S25 Series smartphones and a new Galaxy Watch for Kids experience on the Galaxy Watch 7.

How to Watch Samsung Unpacked

Samsung's events happen around the world, but the company streamed the most recent event on Samsung.com, Samsung Newsroom and Samsung’s YouTube channel.

Which Products Will Be Released?

The last January event featured the latest versions of Samsung's flagship Galaxy S phones: the Galaxy S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra. We're certain to see a repeat early next year with the next iteration of this series, possibly called the Galaxy S26.

2025's Ultra model might be the last one to use the Galaxy monicker as the company is reportedly looking into separating its premium products from the Galaxy brand.

The Galaxy Ring 2 could show up at the mid-year event. Rumor has it that, when released, the Ring 2 will have a longer-lasting battery and new AI features. We're not really expecting this one, though, since they just announced the first one not too long ago.

Samsung could also unveil a new Galaxy tablet or even a double-folding smartphone, though that’s still up in the air. There are also whispers of the possibility of a Galaxy S25 Slim, but we’ll have to wait to see if it makes an appearance.

Samsung’s rumored extended reality (XR) glasses could debut in late 2025, so we might catch a glimpse of those at the next Unpacked event. Rumored features include the Qualcomm AR1 chipset, a 12MP camera, and Gemini access.

The Fold 7 and Flip 7 are expected at a later event this year. There’s also talk of a Galaxy Z Flip FE, a budget-friendly version of the Flip that could be in development.
