# Samsung’s Galaxy Unpacked 2024: Slimmer Foldables, First FE Model & Cushion Smartwatches
If you missed Samsung’s latest tech showcase this week, don’t worry—we’ve got the highlights. The Galaxy Unpacked event delivered exactly what fans were hoping for: sleeker foldables, a budget-friendly FE version, and some surprisingly plush-looking wearables.
## What’s New?
### 1. Thinner, Lighter Foldables
Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold7 and Z Flip7 are now the slimmest and lightest in the lineup. The Z Fold7 measures just 8.9mm when folded and an ultra-thin 4.2mm when open, weighing a mere 215g—lighter than some traditional flagship phones. Meanwhile, the Z Flip7 continues refining its compact clamshell design, making it even more pocket-friendly.
### 2. First-Ever Foldable FE Model
Breaking new ground, Samsung introduced its first Fan Edition (FE) foldable, targeting a more affordable price point without sacrificing core features. This could be a game-changer for those hesitant about foldable pricing.
### 3. Smartwatches with a “Cushion” Twist
The new Galaxy Watch lineup features a softer, rounded “cushion” design, blending comfort with premium aesthetics. Expect upgraded health tracking and longer battery life—details we’ll dive into soon.
## Pre-Order Perks
All devices are available for pre-order now, with Samsung sweetening the deal:
– Free storage upgrade (e.g., 256GB → 512GB at no extra cost)
– Early-bird discounts and trade-in bonuses
The pre-order window will stay open for a few weeks, so there’s still time to decide.
### Final Thoughts
Samsung’s latest drop proves foldables are here to stay—and getting better with each iteration. Whether you’re eyeing the ultra-slim Z Fold7, the stylish Z Flip7, or the budget-conscious FE model, there’s something for every tech enthusiast.
