Everything Samsung announced at its Galaxy Unpacked event
Reading Time: 3 minutesThe Fold, the Flip, the Tab, the Watch.
Samsung’s lineup of products just became bigger. Way bigger.
At its Galaxy Unpacked event on Wednesday, Samsung launched two new foldable smartphones, a new Galaxy Tab S9 tablet coming in three variants, and a whopping four new versions of the Galaxy Watch.
Here’s a rundown of everything that’s new.
Galaxy Z Fold 5
The key word is ‘flat.’ Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 5 hasn’t received any massive upgrades compared to last year’s model, but it has been refined in ways that foldable phone connoisseurs will likely appreciate.
Most importantly, the new Z Fold 5 folds really flat, thanks to a redesigned hinge. This means no more gap when the phone is fully folded, which is a minor issue that’s been plaguing foldable phones since forever.
Another big change is the new, Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, which powers the new Fold.
Other than that, display sizes, memory options, battery sizes, and camera specs haven’t really changed much since last year.
Here’s a quick overview of the Fold 5’s specs:
-
6.2-inch AMOLED cover screen with 120Hz refresh rate
-
7.6-inch AMOLED main screen with 120Hz refresh rate
-
Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor
-
12GB RAM
-
256GB, 512GB, or 1TB storage
-
4,400mAH battery
-
10MP selfie camera
-
4MP under-display camera
-
Rear triple lens array: 50MP wide angle lens, 12MP ultra-wide lens, 10MP telephoto lens
As we said: Not bad, but not exactly revolutionary, either.
Galaxy Z Flip 5
Unlike its bigger brother, the Galaxy Z Fold 5, Samsung’s more compact foldable, the Galaxy Z Flip 5, did receive one very important upgrade, which will also make it instantly recognizable as Samsung’s new flip phone. The new Galaxy Z Flip 5 has a much larger, 3.4-inch AMOLED cover display. Sure, it’s only a 60Hz display (unlike the inner, 6.7-inch AMOLED display which has a 120Hz refresh rate), but it’s a big upgrade from the tiny display on last year’s Galaxy Z Flip 4.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 also received an improved hinge which makes it fold fully flat, as well as Qualcomm’s new Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor.
Here’s an overview of the specs:
-
3.4-inch AMOLED cover display with 60Hz refresh rate
-
6.7-inch AMOLED inner display with 120Hz refresh rate
-
Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor
-
8GB RAM
-
256GB or 512GB storage
-
3,700mAh battery
-
10MP selfie camera
-
Rear dual lenses: 12MP ultra-wide lens and 12MP wide-angle lens
And yes, that cover display is slightly odd in shape, but we think it’ll make it stand out from the pack even more, making it super-desirable among the folks who simply must have the latest Samsung phone.
Galaxy Watch 6 and Galaxy Watch 6 Classic
This year, Samsung skipped the Galaxy Watch Pro, instead launching the Galaxy Watch 6, and the Galaxy Watch 6 Classic, both of which come in two different sizes: 40 and 44mm for the regular version, and 44m and 47mm for the Classic.
The bezel has shrinked a little on the Watch 6, while the Watch 6 Classic has a rotating bezel, which is nice if you’re into, well, rotating bezels.
New sleep and fitness features have been added this year, including sleep coaching, and a new ‘personalized heart rate zone’ feature should help users create optimal workouts.
Here’s a quick rundown of the specs:
-
Galaxy Watch 6: 40mm and 44mm variants
-
Galaxy Watch 6 Classic: 44mm and 47mm variants
-
2GB RAM
-
16GB storage
-
Up to 40 hours of battery with Always On display turned off (30 hours with it turned on)
Galaxy Tab S9, Galaxy Tab S9+, and Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra
Samsung’s most powerful tablet has been updated as well, most notably with the new Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 chip, but also with new, Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays, as well as the IP68 water- and dust-proof rating (a first for Galaxy Tab S).
Though they share a similar name, the three tablets do vary in specs quite a bit. The Galaxy Tab S9 has a 11-inch display, a single 13-megapixel rear camera, a 12-megapixel selfie camera, an 8,400mAh battery, and it weights 498 grams. It starts with 8GB of RAM and 128GB of storage, though it can be had with 12GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, which can further be expanded via microSD cards with up to 1TB of storage space.
The Galaxy Tab S9+ has a 12.4-inch display, two rear cameras (13-megapixel main camera and an 8-megapixel ultra-wide camera), a 12-megapixel selfie camera, a 10,090mAh battery, and it weighs 581 grams. It also comes with 8 or 12GB of RAM, and up to 512GB of storage space, further expandable via microSD cards with up to 1TB of storage.
Finally, the Samsung Galaxy Tab S9 Ultra has a massive, 14.6-inch display, a dual 13/8-megapixel rear camera, a dual 12/12-megapixel selfie camera, a 11,200mAh battery, but it all comes at the expense of weight, as it’s quite a bit heavier than the other two tablets, weighing in at 732 grams. It comes with 12 or 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage, which can additionally be expanded via microSD cards, providing up to 1TB of additional storage.
