Samsung’s large Unpacked occasion simply got here to an finish, and the agency didn’t make the shock announcement we have been anticipating.
We had a sense, as did some leakers, that Samsung would reveal its upcoming tri-fold smartphone on the large New York launch. That is anticipated to be an evolution of the Galaxy Z Fold, with a second hinge and a a lot larger display, rivalling the Huawei Mate XT Final under.
It wasn’t anticipated that Samsung would absolutely unveil the machine, however a ‘yet one more factor’ model teaser on the finish of the keynote appeared like a good guess. Leaked data urged it might be introduced on the July occasion after which arrive absolutely in October.

This might have made sense, as Samsung has a behavior of dropping teaser trailers for brand new units proper on the finish of keynotes.
We noticed it for the Galaxy Ring in addition to the Galaxy S25 Edge, neither of which Samsung tell us about prematurely, regardless of briefing us on the opposite units for these launches. The sensible ring didn’t even get leaked.

It means, just like the Galaxy Watch Extremely 2, which was one other no-show at Unpacked, that the wait goes on for what has been dubbed the Galaxy G Fold.
Maybe Samsung didn’t need to detract from the trio of latest foldables that went up for pre-order at the moment – the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, regardless that they’re in all probability interesting to a distinct kind of shopper.
It could have additionally realized its lesson after the Galaxy S25 Edge took many months to launch after it was teased alongside the opposite S25 fashions, and gross sales have been disappointing up to now.
One other Unpacked later in 2025, doubtlessly in October, is likely to be once we get our first correct glimpse of the Galaxy tri-fold. However for now, we’ll need to make do with the brand new Fold and Flips, in addition to the Galaxy Watch 8 collection.
