While we can usually expect two Samsung Galaxy Unpacked showcases a year, there's a surprise and somewhat low-key one taking place today (May 12 for US readers), where we expect to get the full reveal of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge.

So go check out our Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge launch live blog for all the news.

Building on the back of the Galaxy S25 family, the Edge looks to take a lot of the features of the main line and put them in a super-slim package. The only compromise seems to be one less rear camera; not the biggest of deals.

We'll be covering the Galaxy Unpacked show live so stay tuned for more information. Do check out our guide on how to watch the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge launch live.

And read on for more about Unpacked as a whole.

Here's what happened at the last Samsung Galaxy Unpacked

Samsung's first Galaxy Unpacked event was held on January 22. And what a showcase it was. We got to see the new Samsung Galaxy S25, Galaxy S25 Plus and Samsung Galaxy S25 Ultra, all of which are rather minor upgrades over their predecessors but come packed with new Galaxy AI features.

But there were some unexpected surprises including a roadmap that seemingly confirms Samsung will launch a tri-fold foldable phone at some point, and a reveal of the super-slim Galaxy S25 Edge.

For a recap of all that was announced and discussed, check out our Samsung Galaxy S25 launch live blog and Samsung Galaxy Unpacked – 9 things we saw and learned, including the Galaxy S25 Ultra and Edge.

What is Samsung Galaxy Unpacked?

Galaxy Unpacked is the name given to the big Samsung product showcase. Normally these revolve around new Galaxy S-series phones and Galaxy Fold and Flip series foldable phones.

But Galaxy Unpacked events are also used to debut new Galaxy smartwatches and wireless earbuds, as well as laptops and tablets. There are also nods given to Samsung’s SmartThings smart home platform and its interoperability with the new Galaxy devices.

In general, you can expect two Galaxy Unpacked events a year; one at the start, ranging between January and February, and the other in around July or August.
