The excitement around Samsung’s next Unpacked event is intensifying as the company prepares to unveil its latest lineup of foldable phones and the Galaxy Watch 8. Recent certifications indicate that the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Galaxy Z Flip 7, Flip 7 FE, and the upcoming smartwatches are making significant progress toward their official launch. The Galaxy Z Fold 7, Galaxy Z Flip 7, and the more budget-friendly Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE have received certifications from regulatory bodies, confirming their readiness for key markets.

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 (model SM-F956U) has secured approvals from both the FCC and IMDA, which highlight its features such as Wi-Fi 6E, Bluetooth, NFC, and 5G connectivity. Likewise, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE (model SM-F741U) has also gained FCC approval, ensuring it has similar essential features. This is particularly exciting for fans seeking a more affordable foldable option.

In terms of charging capabilities, recent UL Demko certifications reveal that the new foldables will maintain a 25W wired charging standard across all three models. While some may have hoped for faster charging speeds, this consistency aligns with Samsung’s previous offerings, indicating that improvements in fast charging won’t emerge until 2025. Moreover, the Galaxy Watch 8 also generated buzz with its battery specifications revealed through UL Demko certification.

It appears the standard model will feature two battery sizes: a 300 mAh and a 425 mAh option, catering to varied wrist sizes and user preferences. In contrast, the Classic model may only be available in a single size. These certifications are a promising sign that Samsung is on track for launch, as they indicate compliance with safety and performance standards.

Many expect Samsung’s next Unpacked event to take place in July, making the timeline for these devices’ debut quite plausible.
