Previous rumorshave pointed towards Wednesday, July 10 as being the date whenSamsungwould hold its next big Unpacked launch event – and a new leak has virtually confirmed that will indeed be the day of this grand unveiling.
The leak comes in the form of a countdown graphic posted byEvan Blass, one of the most reliable tipsters in the business. It looks like it could be from Samsung’s official marketing materials, and clearly states the date and the time.

That time is 10am in Samsung’s home country of South Korea – or 6am PT / 9am ET / 2pm BST / 11pm AEST for the rest of the world. The image also includes a pre-register link, presumably for signing up for updates in advance.
The leaked picture also features the familiarGalaxy AIstars – so expect more AI – and an image of the Eiffel Tower, perhaps hinting at where the event will be held. There has been previous speculation suggesting the next Samsung Unpacked would somehow tie in with the summer Olympics, which get underway in Paris on July 26.
Here’s what’s coming
We can look forward to seeing a whole host of new gadgets at this event. TheSamsung Galaxy Z Fold 6andSamsung Galaxy Z Flip 6should make an appearance, a year after their predecessors were launched – and we’re continuing to see rumors swirl about a possibleSamsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 Ultraas well.
However, therehas been talkthat the event will mostly focus on wearables. In that category we should see theSamsung Galaxy Watch 7and perhaps theSamsung Galaxy Watch Ultra– with theSamsung Galaxy Watch FEhaving already been announced.
