The Samsung Galaxy Unpacked event is a big day for Samsung as more and more rumors are starting to spread abou what we can expect on the supposed launch.
Another Flip Phone Reveal?
There already are rumors about what to possibly expect from the event, such as Samsung Galaxy Watch 4, Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3, Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3, and the most recent is the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 Lite, according to a report from The Korea Herald.
The report said that it came from industry sources, and says that if it is indeed correct, it will make the foldable phones much more accessible to people for the entirety of the Galaxy Z Fold range.
So far, there is yet to be any news regarding the prices, and if ever there are any other leakers who support the claim to be true.
Relevant news in regards to the rumored Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 Lite says that it has been canceled because of the ongoing chipset shortage that the company is facing. This report was mentioned by Ross Young, a leaker who has a good track run, so far.
Possible Lowered Prices
Regardless of leaks and rumors, it is entirely plausible to see the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 3 cheaper than the previous model.
There has been a lot of talk amongst leakers and the community in general that mentions that the 5G model might cost around $1,249 for the model that has 8 GB of RAM and 256GB of storage, which is almost $140 cheaper.
The original Galaxy Z Flip sold for $1,380, which is still much more expensive than the upcoming line up.
Release Date and Event Confirmed
Most of us thought that the event would take place on August 3, but newer reports say otherwise.
There already has been a confirmed date thanks to DigitalDailyNews, which reached out to Samsung.
Samsung previously reported that the event will come "later this summer," and is believed to coincide with the August 11 debut.
The reports suggested that there will be five products to be unveiled in the event that we know of. The products are said to be a new foldable phone lineup, the next smartwatch versions, and a new set of Galaxy Buds.
The new set of smartwatch versions doesn't contain an Active if rumors are to be believed, yet something entirely different.
Still, there are no news as to when the products will eventually launch. But judging from how Samsung has done it over the past, it is likely that the accessories will be launched during the event or at least the same week.
As for the phones, it may be a few weeks after its debut.
Possible foldable phones are the Galaxy Z Fold 3 and the Galaxy Z Flip 3. Suprisingly, we won't be seeing the Samsung Galaxy S21 FE to be showcased within the August 11 event as it is said to be announced further down the year.
