Samsung Developer Conference 2018 Schedule, Other Details Revealed

Samsung is holding its annual developers’ conference later this year. The South Korean company has now revealed some specific details about the upcoming event where it is expected to showcase the advancements it has made in software, among many other things.

On Tuesday, Samsung revealed that its Samsung Developer Conference 2018 is set to happen from Nov. 7–8 at Moscone West in San Francisco. Last year’s conference was held a month earlier from Oct. 18-19, as pointed out by SamMobile.

The event is expected to gather thousands of developers, content creators, innovators and technologists since it is where Samsung will introduce and demonstrate new software and services. The conference will also serve as the venue where Samsung and its partners will showcase various products ranging from mobile, wearables, virtual reality, enterprise, healthcare, cloud and even Internet of Things.

More importantly, the conference is where Samsung will hold various workshops to inform and teach developers how to best leverage the company’s new software. Samsung will also reveal its plans for its apps at the event.

While Samsung has already confirmed the event dates today, it has yet to disclose registration details. The company is encouraging fans to stay tuned for its updates because it is opening registrations for the Samsung Developer Conference 2018 soon.

Ahead of the conference, Samsung is unveiling its Galaxy Note 9 phablet at the Unpacked event that’s scheduled to happen on Aug. 9. The company has already sent out invitations, revealing that the event will take place at New York’s Barclays Center.

South Korean news site The Investor reported last month that Samsung intended to hold an earlier launch date for the Note 9 this year because it wants to attract more consumers before Apple introduces its new lineup of iPhones in September.

Based on several rumors and leaks, the Galaxy Note 9 is sporting a slightly bigger display than the Note 8’s 6.3-inch screen. It is also believed to house a bigger 4,000 mAh battery, so it could provide longer battery life than the Note 8’s 3,300 mAh battery.

A leaked render of the device that surfaced online this week also shows that the Galaxy Note 9 will pretty much look just like last year’s Galaxy Note 8 in terms of design. Whether or not the lack of design upgrade will affect the new phablet’s market performance remains to be seen.
