Samsung’s YouTube channel has roared to life as it confirms the next Galaxy Unpacked event. The highly anticipated event will occur at the SAP Centre in San Jose, CA, at 10 am Pacific on January 17th. And we have a hint on the South Korean company’s focus.
Curiously, the focus of the teaser is not on the widely expected Galaxy S24, S24+ or S24 Ultra smartphones, although Samsung has confirmed that the Galaxy S Series will be part of the event. Instead, the focus is on Galaxy AI. Samsung has previously announced Samsung Gauss, an AI platform with three key modules; “Gauss Language for understanding human language and crafting natural responses, Gauss Code assists software development for code descriptions and creating test cases, and Gauss Image allows the creation of and the modification of images.”
No doubt, Gauss will be one of the tools that will help deliver on the promise that “Galaxy AI is coming.”
The Galaxy S handsets are a key part of the proposition, with the press release noting that “[Samsung will] unveil the latest premium Galaxy innovations, providing an all-new mobile experience powered by AI. “
The new handsets will be powered by Samsung’s latest Exynos 2400 chipset or a tweaked Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 tailored for the Galaxy S24 platform, depending on the territory. The Samsung community will be looking to see if the Exynos handsets can finally match the performance and efficiency of the Qualcomm-powered option. Both chipsets are tailored towards optimizing AI and ML routines running solely on a device or working alongside cloud-based services.
The Galaxy S24 Ultra is also expected to launch with a new S-Pen stylus and feature a titanium chassis to increase durability while reducing the overall weight of the flagship.
