Samsung’s latest foldable phones — Galaxy Z Fold7, Galaxy Z Flip7 and Galaxy Z Flip7 FE — have been well received because of the changes made on both the software and hardware fronts. The phones have received record pre-orders — 210,000 in the first 48 hours, breaking previous records, and nearly equaling the pre-orders received for Galaxy S25 series earlier this year.
One of the biggest challenges with foldable phones has been their weight and thickness. Both have been slayed substantially on the Galaxy Z Fold7, not just to give it a skinny vibe but to make it far more usable for long hours.
Being only 215g, it is just 8.9mm thick when folded and 4.2mm thick when unfolded. At the same time, it comes with a large 6.5-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2x cover display. It’s a wider screen with a new 21:9 aspect ratio that brings the device closer to the slab factor we are used to when a foldable phone is shut. On unfolding, there is a large 8-inch QXGA+ Dynamic AMOLED 2x display boasting 2,600 nits of brightness that can handle sunlight effortlessly.
Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy, Galaxy Fold7 delivers massive performance boosts of 41% in NPU, 38% in CPU, and 26% in GPU compared to the previous generation. Further, with the first 200MP wide-angle camera in the Galaxy Z series, it captures 4x more detail, producing images that are 44% brighter. In addition, Samsung’s next-generation ProVisual Engine processes images faster.
Meanwhile, the new Flip7 looks quite different from what we have been used to for generations, be it in the hardware or software department. Powered by a new FlexWindow, this is the thinnest Galaxy Z Flip phone yet.
“The record pre-orders for our ‘made in India’ foldable smartphones reinforce our belief that young Indian consumers are quick to adopt latest technology. Galaxy Z Fold7 delivers our most advanced smartphone experience yet – powerful, immersive, intelligent, and portable all in one. Galaxy Z Flip7 adapts, anticipates and empowers users, unlocking a smarter, more intuitive way to engage with the world. Powered by the new One UI 8 and Android 16 right out of the box, the new devices deliver true multimodal AI experiences. The success of the new devices are a stepping stone for our larger goal – the mainstreaming of foldable smartphones in India,” said JB Park, president and CEO, Samsung Southwest Asia.
Galaxy Z Flip7 FE features a 6.7-inch Main Display for an immersive viewing experience. The 50MP FlexCam enables high-quality selfies and video in Flex Mode, letting users capture content hands-free, without even opening the device. It is a good introduction to the world of foldable phones.
