  • Galaxy Unpacked 2025: Samsung Signals New Era in AI and Digital Wellness with Bold Vision for Mobile Innovation

    Galaxy Unpacked 2025: Samsung Signals New Era in AI and Digital Wellness with Bold Vision for Mobile Innovation

    At Galaxy Unpacked 2025, Samsung Electronics didn’t just launch devices it revealed a sweeping vision for the future of intelligent, connected living. With the unveiling of the latest Galaxy Z series foldables and next-generation wearables, Samsung reinforced its commitment to innovation that centres around user empowerment, AI integration and holistic digital health.

    Held in Brooklyn, the Galaxy Tech Forum on 10 July brought together top minds from Samsung, Google, Qualcomm, Xealth and Advocate Health to discuss how artificial intelligence and connected care are reshaping how we live, work and manage our wellbeing.

    Reimagining AI: From Assistance to Ambient Intelligence

    In the first panel, “The Next Vision of AI: Ambient Intelligence,” Samsung shared its vision of a future where Galaxy AI becomes seamlessly embedded into daily life not just responding to users, but anticipating their needs. Jisun Park, EVP and Head of Language AI at Samsung, revealed that over 70% of Galaxy S25 users have actively engaged with AI features, showing strong appetite for intelligent, personalised tech.

    The conversation expanded with insights from Google’s Mindy Brooks, who discussed the role of multimodal AI understanding user intent through voice, text and visuals and how Google’s Gemini AI integrates with Samsung devices to deliver proactive assistance.

    Qualcomm’s Dr. Vinesh Sukumar highlighted the need for secure, on-device AI that balances personalisation with privacy. All three panellists agreed: the future of mobile AI lies in deeply integrated systems that learn quietly and protect user data at every level.

    Connected Health at Home: The Next Chapter of Digital Care

    In the second panel, “The Next Chapter of Health: Scaling Prevention and Connected Care,” Samsung outlined its approach to healthcare innovation, one rooted in connectivity and real-world impact.

    Dr. Hon Pak, SVP and Head of Samsung’s Digital Health Team, shared how the company’s acquisition of digital health platform Xealth is helping connect Samsung Health data directly into hospital workflows. This means real-time health insights from Galaxy Watch and Galaxy Ring devices could soon play a critical role in patient care.

    Xealth CEO Mike McSherry, alongside Advocate Health’s Dr. Rasu Shrestha, emphasised the shift from clinic-based treatment to proactive care at home made possible by continuous monitoring, AI-powered alerts and Samsung’s growing family of connected devices.

    As Samsung builds out this healthcare ecosystem, it also aims to reduce clinician burnout by streamlining administrative tasks with AI while helping consumers take control of their own wellness journey.

    A Smarter, More Human Future

    The Galaxy Tech Forum made one thing clear: true mobile innovation goes beyond faster processors and sharper screens. It’s about creating intuitive, human-centric technologies that anticipate, protect and improve everyday life.

    Samsung’s ecosystem powered by Galaxy AI, digital health platforms, and seamless device integration is setting the stage for a smarter, safer and more meaningful digital future.

    Pre-order Now: Galaxy Z Fold7, Flip7, and Galaxy Watch Series

    Samsung’s latest foldables and wearables are now available for pre-order in Malaysia from 9 to 31 July 2025. Customers can enjoy rebates, double storage upgrades, exclusive watch bands and more.

  • Sony Unveils Next-Generation Coach’s Headsets for NFL 2025 Season

    Sony Unveils Next-Generation Coach’s Headsets for NFL 2025 Season

    Sony and the National Football League have announced the launch of the new NFL Coach’s Headsets, designed specifically to meet the rigorous demands of NFL sideline communication. These custom-built headsets incorporate Sony’s leading sound quality and advanced noise-cancelling technology, developed with insights from Sony’s acclaimed 1000X headphone series.

    The new headsets aim to provide coaches with crystal-clear communication even in the loudest and most challenging game day environments. Troy Vincent, senior executive vice president of football operations at the NFL, highlighted the importance of reliable communication for coaches and players, describing the headset as a fusion of football innovation and game day excellence.

    Matt LaFleur, head coach of the Green Bay Packers, praised Sony’s coach-first design approach, noting the headset’s clarity in noisy conditions, comfort, and durability. He expressed confidence that the headset will be a reliable tool throughout the season.

    Sony Electronics president and COO Neal Manowitz shared that the development process focused heavily on listening to coaches’ needs and applying decades of audio innovation to create a product capable of delivering performance and focus under intense pressure. The headset builds upon Sony’s expertise with products like the WH-1000XM6 headphones, translating advanced noise cancellation into a practical solution for sideline use.

    The headset’s noise-cancelling system was optimized through testing with crowd noise levels exceeding 100 decibels to ensure outstanding in-stadium accuracy. Additionally, a specially engineered microphone isolates and enhances the coach’s voice for clear, consistent communication.

    Designed to withstand the demanding conditions of NFL sidelines, the headset is weather-resistant, able to handle rain, snow, extreme heat, and cold. It also underwent rigorous drop testing and features ergonomic design to ensure comfort during long hours and stability during intense movements.

    For the 2025 NFL season, all 32 teams will be equipped with these new headsets. They will connect via Verizon Business’ Managed Private Wireless Solution through a belt pack, facilitating seamless and secure real-time communication.

    This launch represents the next milestone in the longstanding collaboration between Sony and the NFL, combining cutting-edge engineering with practical, on-field insights to advance technology innovation in professional football.
