At Samsung Galaxy Unpacked this year, company president TM Roh took the stage in Brooklyn, NY, to tout the transformative nature Galaxy AI. The presentation talked about how Samsung's AI tech customizes information and systems to become your personal companion. It gives you morning briefs, synthesizes your health information and can integrate across different form factors, like foldables, VR and wearables. I am an active user of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 phone, but I've never once seen any of

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 hands-on: Finally, the foldable phone I've been waiting for

As a foldable phone enthusiast, I've been asking myself that question throughout the month leading up to Unpacked, where the company today pitched its newest shape-shifting handset, the Galaxy Z Fold 7. Within a second of the phone's unveiling, the answer was a resounding yes. But I didn't need the roar of the crowd to tell me that.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE hands-on: The 'cheaper' foldable phone got me very confused

Prakhar Khanna/ZDNET Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is a big upgrade over its predecessor. It features an edge-to-edge cover-screen display, a bigger battery, and more polished AI features. It retains the $1,099 price tag, but Samsung needed a flip phone under $1,000 to address the increasing competition from Motorola Razr. Enter the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE.

Samsung’s 7th-gen foldables slim down, may finally fit in your pocket

arstechnica.com Unknown 2025-08-04 19:03:45

There's no denying annual smartphone releases have settled into a routine—flat glass slabs with slightly faster processors and better cameras. Foldable phones buck the trend, but these products come with plenty of drawbacks. They're big and heavy, and even with all that bulk, the battery life and cameras can be lacking. Samsung's new Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 don't right all the wrongs, but they mark the most significant year-to-year upgrade since the company began making foldables. The new

Similarly, the company's new Watch 8 Series will be the first to launch already running Google's Wear OS 6.

If you're someone who likes to monitor their health through a smartwatch, today's Samsung Unpacked Galaxy event was great for you. I've always been somewhat skeptical of the idea that you absolutely need a smartwatch, Oura ring or another wearable device to monitor and maintain your health. But at today's Samsung Unpacked Galaxy event, it's clear that Samsung's technology powering these devices is improving, to the point where I'm convinced it was the best part of the event.

Samsung’s latest wearables have officially landed, sporting a unified look and smarter software. As expected, the launch doesn’t reinvent the proverbial wheel, but this year, it does reshape it. The Galaxy Watch 8, Watch 8 Classic, and a subtly updated Galaxy Watch Ultra all adopt a cushiony squircle case design. They also introduce a refined One UI 8 Watch experience built on Wear OS 6, leaving shoppers to choose between the sleeker base model, the fan-favorite rotating bezel on the Classic, or

Epic Games says it's reached a settlement with Samsung after suing both Samsung and Google last year over antitrust issues. The action is likely a turning point for players of Fortnite and other games. Epic didn't disclose the terms of the settlement, but the original suit focused on Samsung blocking the installation of apps on its mobile devices, making it more difficult for users to install Epic Games titles, such as the popular Fortnite.
