At the end of January, the Korean technology company invites you to its next product presentation. In addition to new smartphones, there will probably also be a smart AR headset and new Galaxy rings on display.
New Galaxy smartphones
Samsung wants to start 2025 with a bang. The manufacturer’s next Unpacked event will take place on January 22nd in San Francisco, where some new devices will be presented. Above all, the new generation of smartphones will be on show.
The aim is to convince customers with the various Galaxy S25 models. The new phones will be equipped with Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite. The new top SoC, manufactured on a 3-nanometer scale, achieves a clock speed of up to 4.32 gigahertz. This means it delivers almost one gigahertz more than the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3, which is partly installed in the S24 series.
The smartphones also receive an upgrade in terms of RAM. Samsung is increasing the RAM from eight to twelve gigabytes as standard in order to provide its cell phones with enough resources to handle applications with Galaxy AI.
Second generation of the Galaxy Ring
In addition to the smartphones, the new Galaxy Ring 2 will also be on display Digitimes reported. Above all, it is likely to be equipped with improved sensors for recording health data such as heart and breathing rate.
As was already revealed in November, the ring could also be thinner than its predecessor. At the same time, however, the battery capacity could increase. The battery should then last at least seven days. Samsung is also planning two additional sizes of the ring.
Samsung’s AR glasses
Thirdly, it is said that the Korean company will also show off its brand new AR glasses in January. But this is not the VR headset called “Project Moohan” that was revealed in a marketing image a few days ago. Rather, Samsung is working on a device that comes close to the form factor of ordinary glasses.
Like the VR headset, the AR glasses will also run on Android XR, Google’s completely new Android variant for virtual and mixed reality applications. It is not yet known exactly when the devices will be launched on the market.
At least with AR glasses, it could still take some time. As usual, pre-orders for the S25 models and the new Galaxy Ring should start close to the Unpacked event. The prices for the new smartphones should remain the same compared to the previous generation.
