Samsung to Unveil Wider, Shorter Foldable at July 22 Unpacked — Matching Apple's Expected Design

Samsung will introduce a shorter, wider Galaxy Z Fold at its July 22 London Unpacked event, teased as "a new shape." The Verge's prior reporting indicates Apple's first foldable iPhone, expected in September, will adopt a similar squat design. Huawei's Pura X Max reached market earlier in 2026 with a comparable form factor. The convergence suggests an industry-wide shift toward wider foldable aspect ratios.
