Samsung announced on Monday evening that it will host a livestreamed Galaxy Unpacked event on September 4, strategically positioning itself just five days ahead of Apple’s highly anticipated iPhone 17 event on September 9.

The virtual event, scheduled for 5:30 a.m. ET (2:30 a.m. PT), will stream live on Samsung.com and the company’s YouTube channel, according to an official Samsung announcement. The timing appears deliberate, as Samsung seeks to capture attention before Apple’s traditional fall product launch window

      Wtf are you talking about, apple is nowhere close to 100% market share no matter how much they wish they were, and FOSS alternatives are sufficiently difficult to install that the vast majory of consumers haven’t bothered.

      Not really. Most people don’t care about privacy, or their personal data being sold to the highest bidder. People still use Facebook, too.
