Although Samsung hasn't provided any particular details about what it is bringing at the Galaxy Unpacked Part 2 2021 event, the company is reportedly believed to unveil the much-awaited Galaxy S21 FE smartphone or new mid-range smartphones. The new Samsung Galaxy S21 FE will be a successor to the Galaxy S20 FE that was unveiled in September last year. However, it should be noted that a recent report suggested that the phone may launch in January 2022. Since there's no confirmation from the company yet, this information should be considered with a pinch of salt.

Samsung's Unpacked event in August announced the arrival of the Samsung Galaxy Book Pro and Galaxy Book Pro 360 laptops. Both devices were launched with 11th-generation Intel Core processors along with Iris Xe graphics.

Interestingly, Samsung isn't the only tech company that is hosting its major launch event in October. Apple is also holding its second virtual event of the season on October 18 at 10:00am PDT (10:30pm IST). Google is also gearing up to host an event on October 19 to unveil the Pixel 6 and Pixel 6 Pro smartphones. Apart from this, OnePlus is also holding an event to launch OnePlus 9RT and OnePlus Buds Z2 TWS earbuds on October 13.
