Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked event is coming home. The smartphone giant will unveil its next generation of foldable devices in late July 2023. The event will take place at the COEX in Samseong-dong, Gangnam in the South Korean capital of Seoul.

Samsung has held Unpacked in key cities around the world. These include Las Vegas, New York, London, Berlin, and Barcelona since 2010.

Now, the global platform will focus on Samsung’s next line of foldables, as well as its groundbreaking technologies to offer the world a glimpse into the future.

The brand has enjoyed success in the foldable smartphone category; in 2022, the Korean market has had a remarkable 13.6% foldable phone adoption rate.

Samsung has also dominated foldable phone market shares last year, enjoying more than an 80% mark.

Global shipments have also increased, while it is predicted that foldables’ compound annual growth will increase to more than 30%.

Samsung introduced its first ever Galaxy Fold in 2019, and since then, the company has released a handful of high-end devices, with the Galaxy Z Fold4 and Galaxy Z Flip4 being its latest.

Explore New York as both Peter, Miles

In Marvel’s Spider-Man 2, players will get to experience Marvel’s New York as both the protagonists. The main storyline will have them take both Spider-Men at different points of the campaign.

As players explore Manhattan, Queens, and Brooklyn, fan-favorite villains like Venom, Lizard, and Kraven will threaten them, and it’s up to them to utilize Peter and Miles’ new abilities to win.

Eddie Brock isn’t Venom

Another sort of big reveal is that Venom won’t be Eddie Brock which is how it initially played out in the original comic books. Insomniac Games Creative Director confirmed as much at the Summer Game Fest 2023.

“It is not Eddie Brock, our goal was to tell an original story something you haven’t seen in the comics and the movies yet,” said Intihar.
