Samsung is doubling down on foldables with the brand-new Galaxy Z Flip 7, unveiled at Unpacked 2025. No longer just a nostalgic nod to retro tech, the Z Flip is becoming a true innovation hub—compact, stylish, and smarter than ever.
A sleeker design and a larger cover screen 📱
Samsung refined what matters most: the Z Flip 7 is slimmer (13.7 mm folded), just slightly heavier (188 g), and now sports the largest cover screen ever seen on a Flip. The new 4.1-inch FlexWindow nearly covers the entire front, a big step up from the 3.4-inch panel on the Flip 6. That means more room to check messages, browse your schedule, or snap selfies—all without opening the phone. Brightness hits an impressive 2600 nits, and the external screen now supports 120 Hz refresh (up from 60 Hz), making interactions buttery smooth.
AI-powered smarts elevate the user experience 🤖
Samsung is going all-in on AI with the Flip 7. Think smarter photo editing, automatic object and noise removal in videos, and even Gemini Live voice assistance—accessible directly from the cover screen. While the Flip 6 introduced some Galaxy AI features, the Flip 7 takes things further thanks to a new processor and Android 16 out of the box. The experience is faster, more intuitive, and tailored to how you actually use your phone every day.
Performance and battery: foldable endurance gets real 🔋
Under the hood, the Flip 7 runs on Samsung’s own Exynos 2500 chip, backed by 12 GB of RAM and up to 512 GB of storage. The battery sees a solid bump to 4300 mAh (up from 4000 mAh on the Flip 6), promising noticeably better battery life. The main display grows slightly to 6.9 inches, keeping the 120 Hz AMOLED panel for a crisp, fluid viewing experience.
Meet the Z Flip 7 SE: a more affordable foldable, with fewer compromises 💸
The real curveball this year is the Galaxy Z Flip 7 SE (or FE in some markets). It’s a bit thicker, a lot cheaper (around €300 less), but still delivers on key features: a 3.4-inch cover screen, 4000 mAh battery, 8 GB of RAM, and the same 50 MP main camera. It’s a solid entry point for those curious about foldables without committing to the full flagship price.
