Samsung is gearing up to announce its next suite of mobile devices next month, teasing a Galaxy event for 4 September.

From the limited information available so far, Samsung’s announcements revolve around more seamless connectivity across more of its devices. To use the company’s words, its aim is “redefining effortless connectivity and productivity”. What that looks like in practice, we’ll have to wait and find out.

What we do know from Samsung’s teaser, however, is that September’s Galaxy event will include “premium AI tablets” and a new Galaxy S25 device. Looking back to September last year, Samsung announced the more affordable Galaxy S24 FE phone alongside the Galaxy Tab S10 range of tablets.

Although it’s no guarantee of what Samsung has in store for September, it seems to line up with what the mobile brand has teased so far. Samsung hasn’t announced the Galaxy Tab S11 yet; it did launch the Galaxy Tab S10 FE in April earlier this year.

With a focus on connectivity between devices, Samsung could be upgrading its Quick Share technology. Like Apple’s AirDrop functionality, Quick Share lets Galaxy users send files between devices. Samsung also mentioned “multimodal capabilities”, so it’s likely using AI to try and bridge multiple devices and apps together, like Google’s new Magic Cue feature.

Samsung will livestream its September Galaxy event live on YouTube and via its website. Here’s when you can watch in Australia:

  • AEST: 4 September 7:30 PM
  • ACST: 4 September 7:00 PM
  • AWST: 4 September 5:30 PM

That timing gives Samsung a bit of breathing room before Apple’s big September announcement event, which will air in the early hours of 10 September. Apple’s event is expected to follow tradition in announcing the iPhone 17 for a late-September launch.
