Samsung confirms August 10 Unpacked launch event for new foldable smartphones

Samsung has confirmed it will be holding a launch event in New York on August 10 to unveils its new generation of foldable smartphones – the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Galaxy Z Flip 4.

Galaxy Unpacked 2022 will be streamed live for Australians from 11pm on August 10 on Samsung.com and Samsung’s YouTube channel.

Samsung released a teaser video to promote the event which shows glimpses of foldable devices with the Samsung logo.

There has been plenty of speculation and rumours about the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4 and the Galaxy Z Flip 4.

The Fold 4 will reportedly have a less visible crease when you open the 7.6-inch QXGA AMOLED 120Hz screen and a front 6.2-inch HD+ AMOLED 120Hz screen.

Under the hood will be 12GB RAM and storage capacities of 256GB and 512GB.

The rear triple camera system will include a 50-megapixel, 12-megapixel ultra-wide and 10-megapixel cameras.

There’s also conflicting speculation about the S Pen after compatibility was introduced to the Galaxy Z Fold 3.

But the issue was there was no place to store the S Pen inside the device.

There are differing reports on whether the Galaxy Z Fold 4 will have a storage slot for the S Pen to make it easier to carry around or if you still have to store it separately.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 4 will keep its current design but will be lighter according to the rumours.

The front 1.9-inch screen will offer even more capabilities including running apps on its own like you would on a wearable device.

There’s also reports that the Z Flip 4 may also have S Pen compatibility.
