Samsung’s next big product launch event takes place in just a few days' time, on 1 February. To be held online, the event is expected to feature a trio of newGalaxy S23andGalaxy S23 Ultrasmartphones.
This is Samsung’s first Unpacked event of 2023 and it comes a year after the company announced itsGalaxy S22smartphone family andGalaxy Tab S8 tablet.
No smartwatches were revealed at the 2022 event. Instead, those came later when theGalaxy Watch 5and Watch 5 Pro landed in August, a year after the fourth-generation Galaxy Watch.
This leads us to think that, while it isn’t entirely impossible that a new smartwatch will arrive on 1 February, it’s unlikely that theGalaxy Watch 6is ready just yet. Instead, we expect to see that, and potentially a Galaxy Watch 6 Pro too, arrive in August.
That doesn’t rule out a different model of Samsung smartwatch featuring at the next Unpacked event. Samsung might announce a cheaper, simpler model to rival theApple Watch SE, or perhaps a new fitness tracker like those fromGoogle-owned Fitbit.
Much more likely for the 1 February event is a family of Galaxy S23 smartphones. We’re also expecting to see a new laptop, potentially called the Galaxy Book 3, and an Ultra model that could go up againstApple’s newM2-powered MacBook Pro, announced this month.
There could also be a successor to the Galaxy Tab S8 tablet that arrived a year ago, but Samsung doesn’t tend to roll out new tablets on an annual cycle, so we might be premature with that prediction.

It also seems unlikely that Samsung will announce a new model of itsGalaxy Buds Proearphones just yet, given the current generation launched recently. A replacement for the two-year-oldGalaxy Buds 2could be waiting in the wings, but rumours are thin on the ground.
