Last week, Samsung revealed the company is preparing to bring the ‘noteworthy’ Galaxy S series premium smartphone.
Now, the South Korean technology major has announced to host the first edition of the Galaxy Unpacked 2022 event on February 9 at 10:00 am EST (8:30 pm IST).
Samsung has promised that the upcoming smartphone will be the most advanced and significant upgrade over any iteration of the Galaxy S series launched till date.
“True innovations don’t just evolve with the world – they help shape it. To create the devices that push us ahead, rewrite the future, and bring light to the dark, we must continue to break the rules of what’s possible with a smartphone. Join Samsung Electronics on February 9, 2022, for the next Galaxy Unpacked, as we set an epic new standard for smartphones with the most noteworthy S series ever created,” the company said.
