According to a report by Korea Economic TV today, Samsung plans to hold its next Galaxy Unpacked event in London, UK on July 22, 2026. This will be Samsung’s first time to launch its strategic devices in Europe.

In addition to the regular Galaxy Z Flip 8 and Fold 8, Samsung will also introduce a new wide-folded device called Galaxy Z Fold Wide (or Wide Fold) at that time. This is a “secret weapon” specially prepared to counter the challenge from Apple’s foldable iPhone.

In January this year, Flip 8 (SM-F776U) and Fold 8 (SM-F976U) were already listed in the GSMA database. Along with them, another model with the code name “H8” (the code for the Fold series is “Q” and for the Flip series is “B”) – SM-F971U – was also present.

As a new product line, the biggest highlight of Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Wide lies in its screen ratio. Rumors suggest that it will adopt a 4:3 screen ratio, shifting from the current slender design of the Fold series to a wider, more traditional tablet-like shape. This design is believed to significantly enhance the experience of using the device in landscape mode, reducing the large black borders on the top and bottom when viewing photos and videos, and improving multitasking capabilities.

The most important thing is that this device is expected to be 0.5 millimeters thinner than the Apple foldable screen iPhone.

In addition to the brand-new Wide Fold model, the Z Fold 8 and Z Flip 8 have also undergone several major upgrades. The most notable improvement is the display technology. Samsung Display showcased an OLED panel at CES 2026 that virtually eliminates visible creases. The industry generally believes that this technology will be first applied to the Z Fold 8 and Fold Wide, and creases will become the core battlefield in the competition of future foldable phone models.

Furthermore, the S Pen handwriting pen support that was absent on the Z Fold 7 due to the pursuit of a slim design is also highly likely to return on the Z Fold 8 or Fold Wide, becoming another significant differentiating advantage for Samsung in the competition with Apple’s foldable phone models.
In terms of core specifications, the Z Fold 8 is expected to be equipped with an internal screen of approximately 8 inches and an external screen of 6.5 inches, both of which support a 120Hz refresh rate. In terms of cameras, there may be regular upgrades, with the main camera expected to be upgraded to 200 million pixels; while the Fold Wide model may feature an internal screen of 7.6 inches and an external screen of 5.4 inches, using a dual-camera system. In terms of chips, both of the new Fold models are expected to be equipped with the Qualcomm 5th-generation Snapdragon 8 Supreme Edition platform, but the possibility of using the Exynos 2600 cannot be completely ruled out.

In terms of pricing, the starting price of the Z Fold 8 is expected to remain at the same level as the previous generation, which is $1999 (Note from Igeekphone: current exchange rate is approximately 13,680 yuan). However, considering the increase in component costs and tariff pressures, the final price may also be raised.

Apart from the new foldable screen model, Samsung’s upcoming event might also introduce a new generation of smartwatches, namely Galaxy Watch 9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2.

The pictures shared by Lin Lin show that the new MagicPad 3 Pro 12.3 tablet from Honor comes in a deep space grey color. It features a rear matrix camera module (containing a circular-shaped flash) and has a thickness of approximately 4.82mm and a weight of about 440.5g. It supports 5280Hz ultra-high-frequency PWM dimming. The rear cover of the new device is equipped with contacts, which are expected to be able to connect with accessories such as keyboard protection cases. At the same time, it has passed the IMAX ENHANCED certification.

IGEEKPHONE Note: IMAX ENHANCED is a home theater solution jointly developed by IMAX and DTS. This certification is similar to Intel’s Intel Evo program. Products with this logo feature “vivid colors, higher contrast, larger screen size, better clarity, and amazing picture quality, as well as powerful sound effects that transport you to an extraordinary experience.”

According to an earlier report by IGeekphone, the Honor MagicPad 3 Pro 13.3-inch flagship tablet was released in October last year. It is the first tablet to be equipped with the fifth-generation Snapdragon 8 Supreme Edition and offers three color options – Moon Shadow White, Starry Gray, and Glitter Gold, as well as three storage versions – 12+256GB, 12+512GB, and 16+512GB.

It should be noted that although there were previous rumors suggesting the release date would be April 21st, the latest information indicates that the actual time is not that date. As a key upgrade point, the processor of Pura X Max has jumped from the Kirin 9020 of Pura X to the Kirin 9030 Pro. This is currently the most powerful mobile chip under Huawei’s brand.

Apart from the significant leap in performance, the notable increase in screen size is also the core selling point of Pura X Max. Its internal screen measures 7.69 inches, while the external screen is 5.5 inches. It will be the world’s first truly large-screen and wide-foldable device.

Compared with the traditional foldable devices available on the market, Huawei has achieved an improvement in the display area of the inner screen by approximately 30% to 60% through its unique 16:10 golden widescreen ratio. This design effectively addresses the industry pain points of overly bulky large foldable devices and the narrow ratio of traditional small foldable screens.

This design not only offers a more outstanding video display effect, but also provides a browsing experience similar to that of a mini tablet. When users are multitasking or engaged in deep reading, they can enjoy a much wider field of vision than with ordinary foldable screens.

While delivering an unparalleled visual impact, Pura X Max also offers an excellent grip. It strikes a perfect balance between the immersive experience when unfolded and the carrying burden when folded, providing a brand-new model for the evolution of foldable screen mobile phones.

At the industrial design level, this device adopts a highly distinctive transverse camera module design. The camera and the flash are arranged in a straight line on the back, presenting a simple yet sophisticated visual appearance.

It is reported that this device will offer two configurations: the standard version and the collector’s edition. As the release date approaches, this groundbreaking foldable screen phone is about to unveil its final details.

A blogger has revealed that the Pura 90 series will consist of three models: the standard version, the Pro version, and the top-of-the-line Pro Max version. Each of these models will be equipped with the Kirin 9020, Kirin 9030, and Kirin 9030 Pro chips respectively.

Among them, the Kirin 9030 Pro is regarded as the most powerful self-developed mobile chip by Huawei at present. It adopts an extremely innovative 9-core architecture design, with a very solid performance foundation. Its main core has a clock speed of 2.75GHz, the middle core operates at 2.27GHz, and is supplemented by an efficient small core with a clock speed of 1.72GHz.

At the system level, the Pura 90 series is expected to be the first to adopt the latest HarmonyOS 6.1 system. This iteration not only represents the improvement of functions, but also marks the further maturation and evolution of the HarmonyOS ecosystem.

According to relevant data, as of March this year, the total number of terminal devices running HarmonyOS 5 and HarmonyOS 6 has successfully exceeded 50 million. This indicates that the HarmonyOS ecosystem has successfully passed the initial stage and has officially entered a new period of large-scale growth.

Based on the deep hardware-software collaboration between the Kirin chip and the native HarmonyOS, Huawei is building a solid technical barrier in the high-end mobile phone market. This deeply optimized system enables the new generation of flagship devices to demonstrate unique competitiveness in terms of interaction smoothness and performance scheduling.

With the launch of the Pura 90 series, Huawei will further demonstrate its profound expertise in domestic self-developed technologies. For consumers who are expecting a dual breakthrough in both imaging and system performance, the official pre-release that begins next week will reveal more exciting details.
