Samsung Unpacked 2023: New Galaxy Z Fold 6, Z Flip 6, and Tech Announcements - Price, Release Date, and Rumors

Samsung is set to reveal new Galaxy devices at its Unpacked event on July 10, including the highly anticipated Galaxy Z Fold 6 and Z Flip 6. The company has not yet disclosed all the details about these new foldables, but leaks suggest that they will come with improved features such as wider aspect ratios for the Fold 6 and bigger batteries for the Flip 6. Samsung is also expected to announce new smartwatches, earbuds, and tablets at the event.

The Galaxy Z Fold 6 is rumored to have a starting price of $1,899, while the Flip 6 will start at $1,099. The event will take place in Paris and can be livestreamed on Samsung's website and YouTube channel.

Samsung has been a major sponsor of the Summer Olympics and is expected to showcase its new products during the games. The company may also discuss its AI technology, which has been a focus for Samsung in recent years.

In addition to Samsung's event, other tech companies such as Google and OnePlus are also holding hardware events this month. Google's I/O conference is scheduled for May 18-20, while OnePlus is expected to announce its new flagship device on June 3. It remains to be seen how these events will impact the foldable market share, which has recently seen a decline in Samsung's dominance with Chinese manufacturers like Honor and Xiaomi gaining ground.

Despite the hype surrounding Samsung's Unpacked event, some rumors suggest that a larger and thinner version of the Galaxy Z Fold 6 named Ultra or Slim has been put on hold indefinitely.

    • . . . if this rumor is accurate.
    • Samsung has no horse in this game, and the Ultra could have been its way into the thin foldable genre. But perhaps it just wasn’t thin enough and that’s why it was put on hold? We might never know.
    • For years, Samsung enjoyed a comfortable lead in foldable market share, but this has recently taken a nose dive, so perhaps some action is actually needed on its part?

  • Deception (30%)
    The article contains editorializing and sensationalism. The author makes statements such as 'international law now requires that all phone manufacturers spend half of every event talking about how cool AI is.' and 'Samsung devoted a good bit of its winter Unpacked to the subject, showcasing a number of new camera features and its Circle to Search partnership with Google.' These statements are not facts but rather the author's opinions. The title 'Samsung Unpacked 2024: What we expect and how to watch Wednesday’s hardware event' is sensational as it implies that there will be major announcements at the event, which may not be the case.

    • international law now requires that all phone manufacturers spend half of every event talking about how cool AI is.
  • Fallacies (85%)
    The author makes several appeals to authority by mentioning the announcements and releases of other companies and their products. For example, 'The company has adhered to a six-month flagship release cycle for several years now. Since Samsung retired the Note in 2022, that’s meant new Galaxy S devices in January and February and Galaxy Z Folds and Galaxy Z Flips over the summer.' This implies that because other companies have followed this pattern, it is expected of Samsung to do so as well. Another example is 'The company's biggest challenge here is finding ways to set Galaxy AI apart from the myriad Gemini features that are coming to Android.' This statement suggests that since Android is implementing similar features, Samsung must also differentiate itself in some way. Additionally, there are several instances of inflammatory rhetoric used throughout the article such as 'plenty of questions about reliability and consumer interest swirled around the first few generations' and 'international law now requires that all phone manufacturers spend half of every event talking about how cool AI is.' These statements are not factual and are meant to elicit an emotional response from the reader.

    • Plenty of questions about reliability and consumer interest swirled around the first few generations, but it’s safe to say that Samsung has proved that foldables are, indeed, a viable category.
    • You can watch Galaxy Unpacked live here.
    • Samsung threw us a fun curve ball at the last Unpacked event with the brief announcement of a new wearable. With the arrival of Galaxy Ring, the company takes a step into a category that has thus far been dominated by smaller names like Oura.
    • Given Apple’s patent struggles of late, Samsung might as well strike while the iron is hot.
