Weve got less than one day to go until Samsung Unpacked 2024, when the company will formally introduce its latest series of foldables and wearables. More than just getting to know that shiny new hardware, well be learning about the software and services attached to these devices — and because this is 2024, you had better believe that Samsungs going to find a way to work in a whole lot of artificial intelligence (AI). As last-minute preparations are made, a report out of Japan suggests a possible AI-driven partnership between Samsung and the manga One Piece.

Android connoisseur Mishaal Rahman shares on X the tip he received from Lord Reset, who recounts his recent attempt to visit a Samsung store in Shibuya, Tokyo.
