Most notably, the foldable smartphones got major upgrades with Samsung’s new Galaxy AI technology that helps with everything from taking photos to translating notes, to an AI-powered Google assistant. Since Samsung teased its smart ring back in January, we’ve been waiting for months to see its new features in action, such as the double pinch gestures and a heart rate alert. 

Preorders for the new devices start today, and all the products announced will officially go on sale on Wednesday, July 24. Here’s how to preorder every new Galaxy device, plus a guide to which retailers are offering the best deals.
