In other words, don’t expect a Note 22 to be announced this week. Instead, the trademark features of the Note lineup have been integrated into the more premium devices in the Galaxy S range, with the Galaxy S22 Ultra sporting a Note-inspired design and built-in S Pen stylus. But last year, it skipped over releasing what would have been the Galaxy Note 21 entirely and officially confirmed it was discontinuing the brand earlier this year. Samsung used to use its summer launch events to announce a new generation of Galaxy Note phones. We previously saw some renders of these last month, and a big last-minute leak seems to confirm they’re ready for the event itself. Last year also saw the announcement of a new pair of true wireless earbuds, the Galaxy Buds 2, and this year, we’re expecting to see the launch of the Galaxy Buds 2 Pro. The sheer quantity of Watch 5 leaks also has us pretty confident that it’s due for a reveal imminently. We know there are foldables on the way because Samsung basically showed them to us in its promotional images and official trailer for its August 10th launch, and Samsung’s smartphone boss teased “new Samsung Galaxy foldables” in a blog post about the launch.

And, if rumors are to be believed, we’re set for lots of announcements consisting of a pair of foldables - the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Galaxy Z Flip 4 - a new lineup of smartwatches with the Galaxy Watch 5, and most likely some new earbuds. The company will hold its August Galaxy Unpacked event on August 10th at 9AM ET, one year and one day after last year’s foldable-focused event. Samsung’s annual summer launch event is almost here.
