Samsung’s first Galaxy Unpacked event (held on January 22) has been and gone. And what a showcase it was.

What is Samsung Galaxy Unpacked?
Galaxy Unpacked is the name given to the big Samsung product showcase. Normally these revolve around new Galaxy S-series phones and Galaxy Fold and Flip series foldable phones.
But Galaxy Unpacked events are also used to debut new Galaxy smartwatches and wireless earbuds, as well as laptops and tablets. There are also nods given to Samsung’s SmartThings smart home platform and its interoperability with the new Galaxy devices.
In general, you can expect two Galaxy Unpacked events a year; one at the start, ranging between January and February, and the other in around July or August.
