  • Samsung Unpacked event now set for July 24th in Paris.
  • Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6 could cost €100 more.
  • Galaxy Watch X to offer better battery and water resistance.

Fans who are hoping to catch the next Samsung Unpacked event might need to revise those expectations. A report from the Greek tech blog Techmaniacs is that the event will take place at the Paris location on the 24th of July, during the Olympics of the year 2024, which is different from the earlier report 10th of July date.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6’s may get Price Hike and ‘Unpack’ Them Later Than Expected

This transition is not the only process that is in development. Huge information regarding the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6 and Z Flip6 is about the hike in the price, which may shoot up to €100 in Europe and potentially the US. Still, the change seems to target the new Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 processor and improved AI capabilities, which could not be valuable for some higher-priced users.

In addition to those cons, Samsung appears to be carefully not making “Slim” versions of its foldable phone this year. Others are keen on models that are slightly more affordable, but they will have to wait until next year as only the Z Fold6 and the Z Flip6 are the ones that are to be released in 2024.

However, some great features have emerged on the wearable side. The previously rumored name of this premium smartwatch is the ‘Galaxy Watch 7 Ultra’ while the latest reports suggest it could be the ‘Galaxy Watch X’. Battery life and water resistance are likely to see massive enhancements over the Galaxy Watch 6 series.

While anticipating the higher cost, it is equally true that it might remain cheaper when compared to the Apple Watch Ultra 2. Notably, the Korean tech giant is also likely to unveil an original Galaxy Watch X alongside the commonplace Galaxy Watch 7 and possibly a budget-level Galaxy Watch FE. They may introduce new products that can give consumers a lot of choices for the most advanced smartwatches available in the market.

Another interesting device, which could be unveiled is the Galaxy Ring. Although we will not see the full details of the folding smartphone, Samsung could expand on how some of its services work and possible dates it could be launched. While a European release may well be out of the question for the immediate future, a release exclusive to the US has been mooted for August or September.

To sum up, the later launch date plus probable price increases in the foldable, as well as certain issues and disadvantages, the potential of a feature-rich Galaxy Watch X plus more information about the Galaxy Ring can cause certain excitement. Check the official word from Samsung in the following weeks as the Unpacked event is on the schedule.
