Samsung's Big Reveal: What to Expect from the January 22 Event

Mark your calendars! Samsung is throwing a party, and you're invited. On January 22, the tech giant is holding its next Unpacked event. This one's important because it's where we'll see the new Galaxy S25 lineup. Samsung's been doing these twice a year, with the S series coming out in January and the foldables in the summer. The event's happening online, so anyone can tune in. If you pre-order early, you get a $50 Samsung store credit. That's like a little thank you from Samsung for being eager! So, what's on the menu? We're expecting three main dishes: the S25, S25+, and S25 Ultra. The Ultra's the big boss, taking over from the Galaxy Note. Rumors say the S25 will look a lot like its predecessor, but with a slimmer design. We're talking 1-2 millimeters thinner, so it'll feel even sleeker in your hand.

Under the hood, Samsung's likely putting in the new Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. If you're in the US, you're almost guaranteed to get this powerhouse. Other countries might see some variation, though. AI's a big focus for Samsung. They're aiming to lead the pack and make sure their AI stands out from Google's Gemini features, which are available on all Android devices. Last year, they brought us Circle to Search, a Google feature that launched on the S24 first. But wait, there's more! Samsung might show off a new wearable, the successor to the Galaxy Ring. And we could get a sneak peek at Project Moohan, an extended reality headset they're working on with Google.
