Samsung’s second big Galaxy Unpacked event of 2025 is kicking off in a matter of hours – and this time it’s all about foldables, with the rumors predicting the arrival of the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Z Flip 7, Z Flip 7 FE, Galaxy Watch 8, and more.
Those latest-generation foldables are likely to be the big headlines, according to the latest leaks. But there could well be more news, including a potential first teaser of Samsung’s Galaxy tri-fold.
We’re live from New York to bring you all of the latest news as it happens, with Unpacked July 2025 kicking off at 10am ET / 7am PT / 3pm BST. You can also check our guide on how to watch Unpacked 2025, or watch along with us with the official livestream below.

The Watch Ultra gets a useful new health trick

We’ve previously written about the Galaxy Watch’s incoming health updates, based on our chat with Samsung’s Dr. Hon Pak – and one of them has been seemingly confirmed for the Ultra model in another leak from Roland Quandt on Bluesky.
The smartwatch will be able to track your antioxidant levels – or in Samsung’s words from the leak, “display the ratio of fruits and vegetables in your diet” from a simple finger reading on the LED sensor.
That’s pretty mind-blowing to me, if it proves to be accurate. How does it work? As Samsung Dr, Pak explained to us in June, “using LED lights, we’re able to test the adequacy of beta-keratin and, as a substitute, antioxidants, in your system”. I worry that my score might towards the lower end, but perhaps it’d convince me to up my fruit and veg game.
Samsung flaunts its foldable heritage
We’re in New York for Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked July 2025 event – and among the standard posters and banners the tech giant is underlining how much it’s been a foldable pioneer with displays like the above.
Aside from the strangeness of seeing the years 2019 and 2020 referred to as if they’re ancient history, it does emphasize how long Samsung has been refining its foldables. Today will mark the seventh generation of its Fold and Flip series, and that’s all before Apple has even managed one generation.
Huawei may have beaten it to the tri-foldable punch, but expect to hear from Samsung on that front today, too. Whether foldables are now truly mainstream is another question – I still don’t see as many as I’d expect in the wild – but the tech is certainly being refined, and no company is contributing more to that process than Samsung.
An official glimpse of the Galaxy tri-fold?
One thing that actually hasn’t leaked in full before today’s Galaxy Unpacked July 2025 is Samsung’s incoming tri-foldable. I think it’s highly likely we’ll hear more about it today, if perhaps only in the form of a small Galaxy G Fold teaser.
Last week, we heard a rumor that mass production of the phone will only begin in September. That means we’ll probably only be able to buy it from October at the earliest, and even then it’ll be hard to buy – the same article claimed it’ll be manufactured in very small numbers.
In other words, this thing is going to be closer to a concept car than a mass market star. With previous rumors pointing to a price tag of $3,000-$3,500 (about £2,195-£2,560 or AU$4,560-AU$5,320), and sales potentially being restricted to South Korea and China, the G Fold will be more a proof-of-concept.
Still, I’m excited to see it – we’ve written about how the Huawei Mate XT (above) is far more than a gimmick, and Samsung’s entry into the space can only help push tri-foldables closer to the mainstream.
The final Galaxy Watch 8 leaks
Just to complete the set, Roland Quandt’s Bluesky leaks also reveal the marketing slides for the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic and new Galaxy Watch Ultra.
We’ve already heard a lot about the Galaxy Watch 8 in the past few days – including the fact that we’ll likely be getting three models. Those should the Galaxy Watch 8 Classic, alongside the Galaxy Watch 8 and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2.
That would be a switch-up from last year, when we got the standard Watch and Ultra, but no Classic. But this new Classic model does look lovely, with the return of the rotating bezel for scrolling, plus a powerful 3nm processor, bump to 64GB storage and a Quick Button on the side.
While the Galaxy Watch Ultra sounds powerful (more on that shortly), the new Classic could well be the most desirable smartwatch that Samsung announces today.
What to expect from the Z Flip 7

Naturally, Roland Quandt has also spilled the beans on the Z Flip 7 (above) – the marketing slides appear to confirm some of the recent leaks we’ve seen elsewhere. In other words, a fairly minor refresh.
The headline change appears to be the new ‘Flex Window’, or cover display, which has now expanded to wrap around the cameras. We don’t get a size in this leak, but previous rumors have predicted that it’ll expand from 3.4in on the Z Flip 6 to 4.1in on the Z Flip 7. That’ll help it surface glanceable info like the date and time, and your morning brief.
Something we do get confirmation of (if the leak is accurate) is that the main display will be expanding from 6.7in to 6.9in, while the phone will be marginally slimmer (losing 0.4mm in thickness when unfolded). There should also be a larger 4,300mAH battery, up from 4,000mAh, which will hopefully translate to a battery life boost.
Nothing groundbreaking, then, but this should also back up rumors of an identical starting price to the Z Flip 6. If so, expect it to cost from $1,099.99 / £1,049 / AU$1,799, or perhaps even slightly less.
A deluge of Z Fold 7 leaks

Talk about bursting Samsung’s bubble – the trusty Roland Quandt has just leaked what appear to be entire marketing materials for the Galaxy Z Fold 7 on Bluesky.
There isn’t much we haven’t already seen in recent leaks. It will seemingly have a bigger screen than the Z Fold 6, with a 6.5in cover screen and an 8in main screen. Those would be a step up from the current version’s 6.3in cover and 7.6in main displays.
Elsewhere, it’ll seemingly be thinner when folded (by 3.2mm) and weigh a barely-noticeable 24g less. But the biggest upgrade could be the new 200MP main camera, which is expected to be the same as the one on the Z Fold Special Edition. Quite the step up from the 50MP main camera of the Z Fold 6.
What we don’t get from these leaks are pricing. Some credible leaks suggest it could cost the same as its predecessor, so starting $1,899.99 / £1,799 / AU$2,749. Given the upgrade, that would be impressive. I still think there’s a chance of a small bump, but that’s something we’ll find out for sure later.
