Samsung is hosting a live stream today, during which it’s expected to launch a “brand new addition to the Samsung Galaxy device line-up”, as well as offer a sneak peak at the Samsung Galaxy Note 9. Could we be about to see the announcement of either the Samsung Galaxy Tab S4 or the Samsung Galaxy Watch? Here’s how to watch the event live.
With the Note 9 not due to be announced until August 9, today’s event is likely to focus on other Galaxy hardware. Unfortunately it’s not exactly clear what this is at the moment.

The smart money, based on the rumours we’ve seen in recent months, is on the Galaxy Tab S4 being announced.
The Android-powered slate has been tipped as Samsung’s answer to the iPad Pro, arriving with much slimmer bezels and audio tuned by AKG. We’re also expecting the tablet to feature retina scanning technology, rather than a fingerprint sensor.
How to watch the Samsung Galaxy event live
The event is due to kick off at 4pm BST in the UK and, as with all modern events, there will be a live stream available so you can keep up with all the action at home.
The most reliable way to tune in will be Samsung’s own website.

What else may Samsung reveal?
However, the Galaxy Watch could also feature, as could a Bixby-based smart speaker to rival the likes of the Apple HomePod and Google Home.
It’s also possible the rumoured Galaxy J smartphone could be the subject of the August 1 launch. That said, any of these devices could also be held back until the full Unpacked event on August 9.
Along with this mystery new device, Samsung has also teased a chance to “hear about Samsung’s latest mobile offering and get a special sneak peek at what’s to come this summer”. No prizes for guessing what that last bit refers to.
What do you think Samsung has in store for later today? Let us know @TrustedReviews on Twitter.
