Apple isn’t the only tech company to send out launch event invitations this week. If you’re keeping score at home, September is actually next week somehow, and Samsung is sneaking a virtual Unpacked in on September 4th before Apple hosts its annual iPhone event the following week. But it’s not just a convenient date to try and steal a little bit of Apple’s thunder — it’s the day before IFA kicks off in Berlin. Related: the event starts at 5:30AM ET / 11:30AM CET.

But if you’re planning to watch live at a more civilized hour, you’ll find the stream at Samsung.com and Samsung’s YouTube channel.
