Samsung UNPACKED, July 2025
Samsung Galaxy Unpacked 2025: Foldable, Flip-out and Watches That Judge Your Antioxidants
A little background on the origin of the "Samsung Unpacked" event
Samsung galaxy Unpacked is a premier global launch event, but it's not just a product launch. It's a showcase of Samsung's vision and ideas for the future of tech, whether that may be the foldable, AI, health tracking or smart ecosystems.
The first "Unpacked" event was held in June 2009 at CommunicAsia in Singapore (non-galaxy phones). As of 2016 the event is held twice a year, one early in the year (Jan/Feb = Galaxy S series) and the second mid-year (July/Aug = The Foldables & wearables).
In 2025 the first event was held some time in January at SAP Centren, in San Jose, Brooklyn, NewYork. This unveiling was heavy focus on the Galaxy AI and new concept devices like the Galaxy Ring. The most recent one to the data of publishing of this article was held on the 9 July, in New York at the Duggal Greenhouse in Brooklyn.
" Okay... so what went down? " (The Samsung Unpacked event, the highlights edition)
The latest exhibition hit the stage and introduced the Galaxy Z Fold7, Z Flip7/FE, and the Watch8 series with bold AI integrations and sleek new designs.
Galaxy Z Fold 7 (The thin, folding thing)
The Samsung new Z Fold7 coming in at 8.9mm when folded, unfolded thickness is 4.2 mm (probably could slide under doors but let's not do that). The enhanced display is 6.5 inches outer screen, 8-inch inner Dynamic AMOLED 2X. 200MP main camera with ProVisual Engine for advanced AI image image editing ("this camera sound a little like a microscope with an imagination"). Powered by Snapdragon 8 Elite, One UI 8 on Android 16.
NO S pen support, Samsung removed (ghosted) the stylus functionality to achieve its ultra-thin design but you do get AI Drawing & Writing Assist (you going to need the assistantance you got on stylus), while there's no built-in slot, the Z Fold 7 is still compatible with the separate S Pen Fold Edition, "sold separately" (So you can, carry two devices and pay for it). Perfect for people who want a tablet but don't want another device, or want to sketch but can't (stylus)...all in one sleek origami square for $ 1,999.
Galaxy Z Flip7 (This one "Flips" not "Folds")
The Z Flip 7 is back (where did it go?). Now with a battery life, up to 31 hours of video playback, a flex Window 4.1 inches Cover-screen ("drama"). You can check the weather, reply to texts, pick your AI outfit, without even flipping open the screen. AI Outfit Suggestions, powered by Gemini (your phone has more style than you do?) The main camera is a humble 50 MP and upgraded night photography. All of $1,099.
Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE (Fan Edition)
A budget-friendly foldable building for style and social sharing.
The Features: A Exynos 2400 processor (region-dependent), RAM is 8GB. The camera is 50 MP main, simplified AI features. The display is the same 6.7 inches inner +3.9 inches cover as Flip 6, with limited Gemini integration like AI Assist and Circle to Search. The Price is $899. Same vibes as the Flip7, just a little toned down and a little more cost-effective.
Galaxy Watch 8 Series (The watch with just a little bit of judgment)
The new Galaxy Watch 8 lineup track your: Sleep quality (your watch, it knows when you are sleeping and it knows when you are awake...), Vascular load, Antioxidant levels (watch or dietitian).
Ultra Watch
The Ultra Watch has a titanium body with military-grade toughness. And did we mention... AI Gemini lives on your wrist now? So you can talk to your watch like you're in a Bond movie and it talks back.
The AI invasion has begun...
Gemini is now basically your pocket best friend (you are not lonely, you have Gemini):
It writes for you, suggests meals, analyzes your photos, (and probably knows your deepest fears and secrets).
The price tag: ( Your wallet is going to be on life support )
Fold 7 - $1,999
Flip 7 - $1,099
Flip 7 FE - $899
Watch 8 - $349
Watch 8 Classic - $499
Watch Ultra - $649
Final Thoughts
Samsung's Galaxy Unpacked 2025 proved that the future folds, flips and thinks for you, The Z Fold7 is slim but powerful, the Flip7 is smart and stylish. The Watch8 turns health into science fiction.
AI meets design and Samsung nailed both.
