Today&#8217;s event announcement includes a <a href=\"https:\/\/www.youtube.com\/watch?v=NFbBXMVwvaY\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">video<\/a> of a show ticket having its stub torn off to make it shorter than before \u2013 clearly alluding to the new device. &#8220;A new shape unfolds,&#8221; reads the tagline.<\/p>\n<p>The shorter, wider version of Samsung&#8217;s book-style foldable is said to resemble Apple&#8217;s own folding device, which is expected to have a 7.8-inch inner display, a 5.5-inch outer display, two rear cameras, one front camera, and a Touch ID power button instead of Face ID. Apple is  anticipated to debut the foldable in September alongside its new iPhone 18 Pro models.<\/p>\n<p>Apart from unveiling the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Samsung is expected to announce new versions of the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which also unfolds like a book, and the clamshell-style Galaxy Z Flip 7. New Galaxy Watches are also expected. Galaxy Unpacked will be held in London, U.K., starting at 9:00 a.m. Eastern Time on July 22.<\/p>\n<\/p>\n<p>On Tuesday, Google <a href=\"https:\/\/www.macrumors.com\/2026\/07\/07\/google-pixel-11-event\/\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">revealed<\/a> that it will introduce its latest Pixel smartphones at an August 12 event, debuting the updated devices about a month ahead of when Apple is expected to announce new iPhone models.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"Samsung has announced it will introduce its latest Galaxy smartphones at a July 22 event, including what is&hellip;\n","protected":false},"author":3,"featured_media":920760,"comment_status":"","ping_status":"","sticky":false,"template":"","format":"standard","meta":{"footnotes":"","_share_on_mastodon":"0"},"categories":[17],"tags":[57568,611,2161,158,67,132,68],"class_list":["post-920759","post","type-post","status-publish","format-standard","has-post-thumbnail","category-mobile","tag-foldable-iphone","tag-mobile","tag-samsung","tag-technology","tag-united-states","tag-unitedstates","tag-us"],"share_on_mastodon":{"url":"https:\/\/pubeurope.com\/@us\/116884185272192889","error":""},"_links":{"self":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/920759","targetHints":{"allow":["GET"]}}],"collection":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts"}],"about":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/types\/post"}],"author":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/users\/3"}],"replies":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/comments?post=920759"}],"version-history":[{"count":0,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/posts\/920759\/revisions"}],"wp:featuredmedia":[{"embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media\/920760"}],"wp:attachment":[{"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/media?parent=920759"}],"wp:term":[{"taxonomy":"category","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/categories?post=920759"},{"taxonomy":"post_tag","embeddable":true,"href":"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-json\/wp\/v2\/tags?post=920759"}],"curies":[{"name":"wp","href":"https:\/\/api.w.org\/{rel}","templated":true}]}}
