From CNET: Samsung's next Unpacked event is just around the corner. The company announced Tuesday that it's holding an event on Feb. 9 to introduce its next-generation Galaxy S devices, which will presumably be referred to as the Galaxy S22 lineup. The company teased the event last week, but only just announced the specific date. The event is being held virtually on Samsung's website and will begin at 10 a.m. ET (7 a.m. PT).
The top-of-the-line Galaxy S22 Ultra is expected to be the star of the show. Rumors and leaks have indicated that it will be a successor to the Galaxy Note, which hasn't seen a new version since 2020, and Samsung even implied as much in a recent blog post. Samsung is expected to launch three versions of its new phone this year, as it's done in the past. That means we'll likely see a Galaxy S22 and Galaxy S22 Plus alongside the rumored Galaxy S22 Ultra. Whatever the new Galaxy lineup will look like, customers can now register to preorder the devices.
The company announced a slew of products at its five Unpacked events last year. In January (the same week as CES 2021), the company took the wraps off the Galaxy S21 lineup with a standard Galaxy S21, S21 Plus and S21 Ultra model. The flagship line was unveiled alongside the Galaxy Buds Pro earbuds and SmartTag object tracker. Then in March, Samsung announced the cheaper Galaxy A smartphones, followed by new Galaxy Book laptops in April. Later in August, Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold 3, Galaxy Z Flip 3, Galaxy Watch 4 and Galaxy Buds 2. New options to customize Samsung's foldable phones were then announced in October.
