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.
