Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event is more than just a product launch event. It’s a grand showcase where the tech giant from South Korea unveils its latest lineup of cutting-edge mobile devices.

From smartphones and tablets to smartwatches and audio products, Galaxy Unpacked offers an exciting glimpse into what’s coming next in mobile technology.

Don’t be surprised if you hear about multiple Galaxy Unpacked events within a single year. In fact, you can expect at least two major showcases annually.

Now, Samsung has announced the first Galaxy Unpacked of the year 2024, where we’re expecting to see the Samsung Galaxy S24 series and more.

It’s been a few months since Samsung held its Summer Unpacked back in July 2023, when it released the Galaxy Z Fold 5, Z Flip 5, and more.

The mid-year event was previously dedicated to the now-discontinued Galaxy Note series, but has now found new life as the launchpad for Samsung’s foldables.

The first Unpacked of the year is still about the Galaxy S series, though. It typically takes place in early spring, and this time, it’s a bit earlier than usual.

When to expect Samsung Galaxy Unpacked

According to Samsung’s recent announcements, fans won’t have to wait long for their next fix of tech innovation. The upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event is slated for 17th January and will take place in San Jose, California.

What to expect at Galaxy Unpacked

Samsung will likely show us the next flagship series – the Samsung Galaxy S24. We expect to see three models as usual: the vanilla S24, S24 Plus, and S24 Ultra. The focus seems to be Galaxy AI this time around.

We may also see other devices like the Galaxy Book 4 series laptops, the fitness tracker Galaxy Fit 3, and more.

Samsung is going at it earlier than usual this year in order to compete with the iPhone 15 Pro, as well as other competitors like the OnePlus 12.

Currently, you can pre-order the next Galaxy phone with no obligation and receive a $50 credit until January 16th. And there’s no commitment to buy either. Give Samsung your name and email, and you get $50 in Samsung credits in return.
