Samsung’s July Galaxy Unpacked tipped for London, new Fold 8 Wide could join lineup
Samsung's next Galaxy Unpacked event could happen in London, with a new Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide expected to launch alongside the regular foldables.
Breaking it down simply — samsung’s next Galaxy Unpacked event is expected to land on July 22nd, As per a report by Korea Economic TV. Alongside the usual updates to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8, a new model, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide, is also tipped to join the lineup.
The reported location is a surprise. The event could take place in London, instead of Samsung’s usual rotation between the US and South Korea. The company has strong operations in Europe, and hosting a premium-tier event in the UK signals a more direct push in that market, especially as competition with Apple continues to widen.
The Fold 8 Wide is the most notable addition this year. Samsung’s current Fold devices are tall and narrow, which works for portability but can feel constrained when unfolded. The Wide version is expected to move to a 4:3 aspect ratio, making the inner screen closer to a compact tablet. Early details suggest a 7.6-inch foldable display and a 5.4-inch cover screen. This product is also said to be slightly thinner than Apple’s rumoured foldable and could support 25W wireless charging. S Pen support is expected to be part of the package, which would give This product a clearer role around note-taking and multitasking. The standard Fold 8 and Flip 8 are likely to follow the same pattern as previous generations, with incremental updates rather than visible changes to the design.A wider Fold changes the use case more than the spec sheet. It makes This product better suited to reading, browsing, and split-screen work, which are already core strengths of the Fold series. It also brings Samsung closer to the form factor being discussed around Apple’s foldable plans.
If these details hold, Samsung’s foldable lineup becomes more clearly segmented. The Flip remains the compact option, while the Wide model could target people who find the current Fold’s proportions limiting. Samsung has not confirmed the July event yet, but the timeline aligns with its usual launch window. More concrete details should emerge closer to the date.
