Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Fold 5 launch date tipped

Samsung is working hard on its next-gen foldable phone lineup. Following its usual practice, the company is likely to unveil sequel models to the Galaxy Z Fold 4 and Z Flip 4 in August 2023. However, recent inputs tipped Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Flip 5 launch date and location.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 5 & Fold 5 launch date
Recent Korean reports indicate that the next Samsung Unpacked could be held in South Korea, promoting Busan’s bid for the 2030 World Expo. The company officials are internally considering the event’s location between the United States and South Korea.
Following the reports, tipster RGcloudS tipped the possible launch date of the Galaxy Z Fold 5 and Galaxy Z Flip 5 smartphones. Similar to the Galaxy S23 unveiling, it’s expected that the Korean tech giant will continue to hold in-person Unpacked events.
P1: USA
If Samsung continues to hold Unpacked in the US, the tipster believes that the Galaxy Z5 lineup will be introduced on August 2, 2023, at 10 AM (pacific time).
P2: South Korea
Rather than the US, Samsung may promote Busan’s excellency through Unpacked in South Korea this year. If it happens, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 and Fold 5’s Unpacked event could be held on July 25, 2023, at 7 AM (pacific time).
P3: South Korea
It’s possible that Samsung may launch new foldables earlier than the last year. Following this, the late July launch makes sense, while the tipster says August 1st (11 AM PT) could also be the reveal date in South Korea.
