The keynote will begin when this post is 49 minutes old. /u/MishaalRahman and I have been invited to the event in-person in San Jose, California. Stay tuned for an AMA following the keynote where we'll have hands-on with the new devices, and will be able to answer any questions you might have.
Feel free to share links to relevant coverage in the comments, and I'll add them to the megathread.
Mishaal is covering the smaller changes that haven't been announced by Samsung in this Twitter thread.

GSMarena is saying South Korea gets the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 variant. If that's true, it's a safe indicator the Exynos is dogshit. Wouldn't be surprised if performance/watt is worse than the 865 since no Samsung fabbed SoC has beaten that one yet.
Edit: seems like South Korea are getting Exynos for the S24 and S24+. Looks like GSMarena are wrong. Hope it isn't a shit show like the 990 and 2200 but I don't expect much.
Because Samsung considers that Europeans are going to buy it anyway. They have to be more competitive in the US where they face Apple.
Eroupe has more options than in the US. Wouldn't Samsung want to be more competitive as well?
66% vs 41%:

Based on the other thread, I don't think a lot of people are excited.
Yeah it seems like that most people see it at best as a software refresh imo.
