Samsung’s next-gen foldables are almost here. The South Korean tech giant’s Unpacked event is scheduled to take place on Wednesday, July 9 in Brooklyn, New York.
The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and the Z Flip 7 are confirmed, and we could also see an all-new Fan Edition version of the tech giant’s clamshell foldable this time around. We’re also expecting three new wearables to grace the stage, with Samsung’s upcoming trifold phone potentially making a surprise appearance.
With all that said, if you’re an interested early buyer of any of two upcoming flagship foldables, Samsung has a great deal for you. The tech giant is offering a $50 Samsung credit if you simply pre-register to purchase, and we now know when you’ll be able to put those credits to use.
As confirmed by reliable industry tipster @OnLeaks on X (Twitter), and as expected, Samsung will open pre-orders for its new products on the day of Unpacked. The event kicks off at 10am ET, with the pre-orders going live five hours after that: at 3pm ET.
More importantly, though, OnLeaks also added that the devices will officially be available a little over two weeks after Unpacked — starting July 25. This is the same pre-order timeframe as the tech giant’s recent S25 series, giving users roughly 15 days to use their pre-order credits.
Elsewhere, the tipster also shared a promo banner for the flagship foldables, which has now been taken down “in response to a report from the copyright owner.” The folks over at SammyGuru, however, were able to save it before it was removed. Check it out below.

The low-res logo, which likely stems from an early website header, highlights the upcoming foldables in blue. We’ve known for a while now that Samsung is striving to achieve a thinner form factor for its new foldables, and despite the low resolution, that is clearly evident. Galaxy AI capabilities will also likely be a major talking point when Samsung shows off the new devices at Unpacked next week.
Beyond the banner and dates, the tipster also highlighted the names of all the devices slated to be shown off at the event. There are no major surprises here, barring one. OnLeaks mentioned the upcoming smartwatch as ‘#GalaxyWatch8Ultra2025.’ For reference, the wearable’s predecessor was simply named the Galaxy Watch Ultra, despite being launched alongside the Galaxy Watch 7 series.
This time around, Samsung seems to be appending the series number to the Ultra variant. Whether that’s a typo or not remains to be seen.
