While Samsung usually announces a Galaxy Note series device this time of the year, it looks like the company's die-hard S Pen fans are in for some disappointment today as the company is expected to launch only foldable smartphones at the Galaxy Unpacked Event.  However, the good news is that previous leaks have pointed towards Samsung adding support for the S Pen on its upcoming smartphones – whether these will extend to the new foldable devices is currently unknown.  Similarly, the company has also released capable laptops recently, including the Galaxy Book Pro, so it is unlikely that we will see any laptops launching at today's event.
