on june 16, several upcoming samsung devices quietly completed u.s. fcc certification, drawing significant attention from the industry. according to the latest filing information disclosed by foreign media, a total of seven unannounced devices have passed this certification process. combining model clues with reports from multiple sources, these devices can largely be confirmed as follows:
- galaxy z flip 8 (sm-f776u)
- galaxy z fold 8 ultra (sm-f976u)
- galaxy watch 9 (available in both 40mm and 44mm sizes, each with wi‑fi and cellular variants, totaling four models)
- galaxy watch ultra 2 (sm-l715, exclusively for cellular networks)
notably, the previously highly anticipated galaxy z fold 8 wide (sm-f971u)—a flagship model featuring a horizontally oriented “passport‑style” widescreen design and widely expected to rival apple’s foldable iphone—was not included in this list. similarly absent was the galaxy watch 9 classic (sm-l510/sm-l515), which aligns with samsung’s customary practice of releasing the classic series every other generation; after all, the watch 8 classic was already launched in early 2025.
fcc certification typically indicates that a product’s hardware has been finalized and is ready for mass production, so this concentrated round of approvals further confirms samsung’s steady rollout schedule. although some models have yet to appear, industry analysts generally believe that delayed submission of relevant certification documents is a common practice. these two unseen products are still very likely to debut at the galaxy unpacked event in london on july 22, or may be announced separately at another opportune time.
