The company will need to be careful to not overshadow the Galaxy S10, which is ostensibly the focus of this edition of Unpacked. But a detailed introduction of the foldable and 5G phones could also inject some much-needed excitement into the event -- and give Samsung a leg up on competitors. Xiaomi and Huawei are both expected to reveal their own foldable models at Mobile World Congress later this month, and a host of companies will be introducing 5G phones over the coming months. 

The decision to feature multiple phones highlights Samsung's current predicament. A persistent stream of leaked images and renders has undermined the company's opportunity to shock and awe us with a new design and updated features -- such as a Snapdragon 855 chipset that looks like an absolute beast, an ultrasonic fingerprint sensor, the company's own take on Face ID, an Infinity-O display and computer-size amounts of storage capacity. But shining the spotlight on other phones will almost certainly divert attention away from the very important phones that are actually launching on Feb. 20.
