Samsung is about to introduce several products at its upcoming Unpacked event. The star will definitely be the Galaxy Note 20 series. The Galaxy Z Flip 5, Galaxy Tab S7 and Tab S7+, Galaxy Buds Live, and the Galaxy Z Fold 2 are expected to make an appearance. However, the Galaxy Z Fold 2 might not be launched at the event. 

Max Weinbach, an industry insider and a writer at XDA Developers, says he is 60% sure Samsung won't mention the foldable device at the event and 100% sure it won't make an appearance at all. Weinbach claims claiming that the software for it isn't close to being ready, and we haven't heard much about its hardware either. He estimates that the Galaxy Z Fold 2 will be announced in early September with a target release of early October. If that is true, there are still many devices that Samsung will be announcing on August 5.
