If you've been eagerly awaiting the Galaxy Z Fold 8, or maybe even the Galaxy Z Fold Wide, then you may be in luck. A new report out of Korea might have just revealed that the next Galaxy Unpacked event will take place in London on July 22 — with a bunch of new product announcements.

The report comes from Seoul Economic Daily, which claims that the upcoming Unpacked event will feature at least three new products: The Galaxy Z Fold 8, the Galaxy Z Flip 8 and the Galaxy Watch 9 series wearables. The report also notes that we may see the long-rumored Galaxy Fold Wide, which has a design similar to the upcoming iPhone Fold, and the long-rumored "Galaxy Glasses."

We know a little more about the Galaxy Fold Wide, which is set to come with a new design that's both shorter and wider than that of the Galaxy Z Fold 8. The report claims that Samsung is attempting to diversify its foldable portfolio and "maintain its leadership gap" ahead of the iPhone Fold launch later this year.

Samsung hasn't confirmed any of these details, and previous rumors suggested that the Z Fold 8 would actually go on sale on July 22 — suggesting Unpacked would be a couple of weeks earlier. Samsung's summer release schedule has been a bit erratic over the last few years, and we've seen Unpacked happen throughout the month of July, so either of those options could end up being true.

We're just going to have to wait and see how this all plays out, and presumably Samsung will be confirming details about the event at some point in the next month and a half. But one thing is for sure: the summer Galaxy Unpacked event is going to be jam-packed with announcements.
