The London summer Galaxy Unpacked event is now underway, where some of the biggest tech products and features Samsung has to offer for the year were announced.
As expected, Samsung is going all in on foldables and AI this year. From its thinnest Galaxy Fold ever to Google’s newest Gemini features built directly into Galaxy devices, there’s plenty to unpack. And with the event still ongoing, we’ll continue updating this list as more announcements come in.
/1. Samsung officially unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra
The biggest hardware announcement so far is the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, Samsung’s first foldable to carry the Ultra branding. The Fold8 Ultra features an 8-inch foldable display, a 6.5-inch outer display, measures just 4.1mm thick when unfolded, and weighs 215 grams, making it Samsung’s thinnest Fold yet.
Despite becoming thinner, Samsung has increased the battery to 5,000mAh. The phone is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy and packs a 200MP main camera, 50MP ultrawide, a 10MP telephoto, and dual 10MP selfie cameras.
Samsung also says the display crease has been reduced thanks to its new Flex Titanium technology. The Fold8 Ultra starts at $2,100.
/2. The Galaxy Z Fold8 gets a major redesign
Samsung didn’t just focus on the Ultra. The standard Galaxy Z Fold8 also arrives with a redesigned form factor that changes how users interact with the device.
