Korean smartphone maker Samsung is all set to unveil its next generation of foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold and the Galaxy Z Flip at its Galaxy Unpacked event, scheduled for August 11.
While both the upcoming foldable smartphones from Samsung have already been leaked a few times, the confirmation about their launch is hidden in plain sight in Samsung’s launch invite, which has an outline of both the devices.
Samsung has also released a teaser with an animation that ends up with two devices being folded, which more or less confirms the rumours.

Now, Samsung is bringing its iconic S Pen stylus to the Galaxy Z Fold 3, according to images leaked by known tipster Evan Blass.
Some other rumours suggest that the Galaxy Z Fold 3 could be the first smartphone from the company to feature an under-display camera, but we recommend taking this with a pinch of salt.
The Galaxy Z Flip 3 – a flip phone – is expected to feature a more usable and larger secondary display.

Both the smartphones are expected to come with 5G support, although only the Galaxy Z Fold 3 will support ultrawideband and Wi-Fi 6E technologies.
Another major highlight of the upcoming event is the Galaxy Watch 4, which could be the first smartwatch powered by the new Wear OS with One UI Watch interface. It could come in 40mm and 44mm models.
