Samsung will introduce five new devices at its Unpacked event on Aug. 5, the company’s head of mobile confirmed Monday in a blog post. Tae-moon Roh, the president and head of the company’s mobile communications business, shared the tidbit in a blog post Samsung published on Monday.
“At this summer’s Galaxy Unpacked, we’ll be introducing five new power devices,” he said. “… you will be empowered to live life to the fullest with these devices in your hand (and in your ears, and on your wrist).”
“These devices deliver on our vision to be the innovator of new mobile experiences that flow seamlessly and continuously wherever we go,” he wrote. “They combine power with seamless functionality, whether you’re at work or play, at home or away.”
Instead of holding an in-person press event, Samsung will host a digital Unpacked event at 10 a.m. ET/7 a.m. PT on Aug. 5 to unveil its new devices. The plan follows similar moves by companies like Apple, which have shifted their events online during the novel coronavirus pandemic. Samsung, for the first time, “will be broadcasting live from South Korea,” it said.
