Samsung is set to host its Galaxy Unpacked event this week on August 11. Unlike past Samsung events hosted around this time of the year, there will be no new Galaxy Note phone. Instead, we’ll expectedly see two foldable phones, a watch, and a pair of wireless buds.

Apart from the phones, Samsung will also launch the Galaxy Watch 4 and Watch 4 Classic. These watches will run on Wear OS with One UI on top. This combination is the result ofa partnership for the smartwatch ecosystem between Samsung and Google, announced back in May.
What’s more, the Korean tech giant will release the new Galaxy Buds 2 featuring active noise cancellation — almost a must-have feature in newly released truly wireless earbuds.
This is going to be a jam-packed event with many hardware launches. Make sure to tune intoPluggedfor all the coverage.
