Smartphone sales may have tanked in Q4, but Samsung is hoping Galaxy fans are ready to upgrade their handset to the Galaxy S23.

After a summer 2022 Unpacked event in New York City, Samsung is hitting up the other coast this week for a presentation that's expected to include the launch of the Galaxy S23 and new Galaxy Book laptops. If you didn't get an invite to attend in person at the Masonic Auditorium in San Francisco, though, you can watch online for a first look at Samsung's latest gear.

When Is Samsung's Unpacked Event?

Unpacked will kick off at 10 a.m. PT / 1 p.m. ET on Wednesday, Feb. 1.

My Experience

I started out covering tech policy in DC for The National Journal, where my beat included state-level tech news and all the congressional hearings and FCC meetings I could handle. I later covered Wall Street trading tech before switching gears to consumer tech. I now lead PCMag's news coverage.

My Areas of Expertise

Getting my start in DC means I still have a soft spot for tech policy; Congressional hearings can sometimes be as entertaining as a Bravo reality show, for better or worse. But PCMag is all about the technology we use every day, as well as keeping an eye out for the trends that will shape the industry in the years ahead (or flop on arrival). I've covered the rise of social media, the iOS vs. Android wars, the cord-cutting revolution that's now left us with hefty streaming bills, and the effort to stuff artificial intelligence into every product you could imagine. This job has taken me to CES in Vegas (one too many times), IFA in Berlin, and MWC in Barcelona. I also drove a Tesla 1,000 miles out west as part of our Best Mobile Networks project. Of late, my focus is on our hard-working team of reporters at PCMag, guiding and editing their robust coverage.
