Samsung has launched a new mid-range line Galaxy A series phones earlier this week, but now a new leaked roadmap may have just revealed what the South Korean tech giant has planned for the rest of spring and summer.
Assuming the roadmap, which appeared in a leaked graphic posted by Evan Blass on his voice page, it is legitimate, we can see that Samsung has a handful of upcoming events and product launches scattered in the next two quarters. Looking forward to the generic launch event on March 26 (which will likely include US-specific information for the new Galaxy A52 and A72), we can see a new computer launch event scheduled for mid-April, the new Tab S7 Lite scheduled for June, a new budget 5G phone in July and a Galaxy FE Unpacked event in August.
For me, the two most important dates on this roadmap are the PC event in April, where I was able to see a new Galaxy Book Pro and Galaxy Book Pro 360 convertible with built-in S Pen support and possibly a 5G-capable version. of Galaxy Chromebook 2and the Galaxy FE event in August.
Samsung has been relatively advanced in investing more resources in its computer division, so following two Unpacked events for S21 and the Galaxy A series earlier this year, with an event Unpacked on the computer, makes a lot of sense.

When we look at the event scheduled for the end of summer, the most important food is that in mid-August it usually happens when Samsung announces a new Galaxy Note device. However, with the leaked roadmap specifically indicating that the event will be for a new Fan Edition device (most likely S21 FE), there has recently been talk that Samsung may not create a new Galaxy Note for 2021 they seem even more likely.
However, Samsung co-CEO Koh Dong-Jim mentioned during a recent shareholders meeting that Samsung could always move the next day to launch the Galaxy Note and I wouldn’t be surprised if Samsung ends up holding back. some special devices a new Galaxy Fold or possibly a Galaxy Note) for later in the fall.
Widespread among the events listed on the roadmap, Blass said Samsung will launch the Galaxy A82 sometime this summer, which is said to have 5G and come with some sort of “dual-use” camera mode.
Despite the ongoing chip crisis affecting the tech industry, it looks like Samsung still has a steady stream of launches planned for 2021 – except for May, when the company doesn’t seem to have anything important on its calendar. And while this roadmap only features phones, tablets, and PCs, there may be a few other unexpected gadgets that will appear before the end of the year.
