Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 may set new standards for foldable devices, with potential reasons outlined below.
The tech world is abuzz with anticipation as Samsung prepares to unveil its latest foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, at its upcoming Unpacked event on July 9. Here's a sneak peek at the confirmed and rumoured specifications for these two devices, as reported in recent leaks and rumours.
Starting with the Galaxy Z Fold 7, this foldable powerhouse is expected to be the thinnest Galaxy Fold yet, potentially as thin as 3.9mm when unfolded. The device boasts a notably larger foldable display and cover screen than its predecessor, with an 8-inch inner screen (up from 7.6-inches) and a 6.5-inch cover screen (up from 6.3-inches).
Under the hood, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is set to feature a high-end Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, a massive 200MP main camera, and a 10MP front camera with a 100-degree wide-angle lens. Samsung has teased that the Z Fold 7 will offer "cutting-edge performance and seamless AI integration optimised for the foldable format."
The Galaxy Z Flip 7, on the other hand, focuses on improved portability. It is rumoured to be lighter (188g) and thinner than the previous model, despite having a larger 4,300mAh battery. The device uses the new Exynos 2500 chip, and features high-brightness, high-refresh-rate displays, just like its bigger sibling.
Both devices maintain high peak brightness levels (~2,600 nits) and 120Hz refresh rates on their main and cover screens, suggesting excellent visual quality outdoors and smooth scrolling. Battery improvements and thinner designs are notable for both foldables, with the Flip 7 packing a bigger battery without increasing thickness or weight.
It's worth noting that these specifications, especially regarding dimensions and camera details on the Flip 7, may still be subject to change before the official release. The official launch and full specs confirmation are expected soon at Samsung’s July 2025 Unpacked event.
If accurate, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 could be thinner than the Oppo Find N5, and the Galaxy Z Flip 7 would be thinner than the Honor Magic V4, which is rumoured to be under 9mm thick.
Both devices are set to run on Android 16 with One UI 8. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is rumoured to have a 6.5-inch external screen and an 8-inch internal screen, while the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is expected to have a 4.1-inch external screen and a 6.9-inch internal display.
As we eagerly await the official unveiling of these devices, keep your eyes peeled for full coverage of the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Z Flip 7, and the Galaxy Watch 8 as they are announced. There are also rumours that Samsung's event may reveal the tri-fold Galaxy G Fold and a potential Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE. Stay tuned for more updates!
These upcoming Samsung devices, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, are expected to revolutionize technology with their new features, set to feature smartphones and advanced gadgets. The Galaxy Z Fold 7, with its thinner profile and enhanced specifications like the high-end Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, a 200MP main camera, and a larger 8-inch inner screen, promises cutting-edge performance and seamless AI integration. On the other hand, the lighter and thinner Galaxy Z Flip 7, boasting a larger battery, high-brightness, and high-refresh-rate displays, focuses on improved portability among smartphones.
