2019 is a landmark year for Samsung as it marks the 10th anniversary of Galaxy phones," a Samsung official said. "San Francisco is the best place for an Unpacked event as the city is the hub of technological developments where Samsung's important partners are located."


The Galaxy S10 is expected to come in three types a base model with a 6.1-inch screen, a plus model with a 6.44-inch screen and a low-tier model with a 5.8-inch flat design screen.

A fifth-generation (5G) network-powered model may come out after March.

Samsung is reported to be kicking off global sales of the Galaxy S10 smartphone on March 8.

Market watchers said Samsung may launch its first foldable smartphone at the Mobile World Congress after drawing the attention of industry people with the rollout of the Galaxy S10.

Samsung reportedly showcased its foldable Galaxy F to major partners at the Consumer Electronics Show (CES) in Las Vegas, which ends Friday.
