Samsung Teases July 22 London Launch Event, Wide-Screen Foldable Expected to Debut

(Central News Agency, reporter Chiang Ming-yen, Taipei, July 8) Before Apple's first foldable iPhone arrives, Samsung today sent out media invitations, announcing a press conference to be held in London at 9 PM Taiwan time on July 22. It is rumored that three foldable phones will be launched simultaneously, including the Z Fold8 with a new wide-screen design, aiming to solidify its leading position in the foldable phone market.

Samsung issued media invitations today, announcing that the Galaxy Unpacked press conference will be held in London at 9 PM Taiwan time on July 22, heralding the launch of the next generation of foldable phones.

In its invitation, Samsung emphasized that the new Samsung Galaxy product lineup will reshape the new form of foldables. Combining smart features with innovative design, the new generation of Galaxy devices will offer a more personalized user experience, setting a new benchmark for the AI era.

The icon on the invitation features a "tear-off" label design, seemingly hinting at the rumored "wide-screen foldable" new device making its debut.

According to various industry sources, Samsung will expand its foldable phone lineup this year, launching three new foldable models: the Z Fold8 Ultra positioned as the highest-end model, the Z Fold8 featuring a new 4:3 wide-screen design, and the compact Z Flip8. This product strategy is more comprehensive than in previous years and is seen as Samsung's move to consolidate its leadership in the foldable phone market before Apple is expected to launch its first foldable iPhone by the end of the year.
