Here are the major announcements to remember from Samsung Galaxy Unpacked’s second event of the year.
Samsung has just closed its last Galaxy Unpacked event where, as expected, it made five major announcements. The firm has unveiled two foldable phones, new connected watches and an update to its Galaxy Buds Pro range.
Galaxy Z Flip 4, a lightweight update to its predecessor
The Z Flip 4 announced at the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked, looks a lot like its predecessor, but stands out some new software. You will thus be entitled on this new iteration to previews of selfies on the cover screen. These previews will have the same ratio as the image itself. Fast charging will allow you to get up to 50% charge in just thirty minutes. This phone is already available for pre-order for around 968 euros before its availability on August 26.
Galaxy Z Fold 4, another reveal of the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked
The design is largely the same as its predecessor, despite being noticeably lighter in weight. The main changes are at the level of the camera matrix which wins a new 50-megapixel main sensor. Scheduled to be available on August 26, this phone is already available for pre-order.
Galaxy Watch 5 connected watches show better autonomy
The Galaxy Watch 4 series suffered from poor battery life. This is what Samsung has decided to overcome with its Galaxy Watch 5 and its Watch 5 Pro. These latter bear a bigger battery and a body temperature sensor. You can already pre-order them for shipping scheduled for August 26.
The Galaxy Buds 2 Pro get a makeover
This product features a new design 15% smaller than the original pair. These headphones also finally support 24-bit Hi-Fi audio via Bluetooth. But these updates unveiled during the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked cost relatively more. They are already available for pre-order before their release on August 26.
More recycled materials, the ecological wink of the Samsung Galaxy Unpacked
Samsung explained how it incorporated recycled materials into the design of its products. For example, it reuses fishing nets in 11 of its devices, including its Galaxy Z and Galaxy Buds 2 Pro.
