Samsung Galaxy Fold 7
Released on July 25, 2025, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is Samsung's current flagship foldable, notable for being the thinnest and lightest in the series. It marked a major shift in design, moving to a much wider aspect ratio on the cover screen that makes it feel more like a traditional smartphone when closed.

Key Highlights
-
The "Ultra" Foldable: For the first time, Samsung brought its top-tier 200MP main sensor to the Fold series, significantly closing the photography gap between the Fold and the S-series Ultra.
-
Wider Cover Screen: The move to a 21:9 aspect ratio on the 6.5-inch cover display fixed the "skinny" feeling of previous models, making it much easier to type and use apps without unfolding the device.
-
Record-Breaking Thinness: At just 8.9mm when folded, it is over 3mm thinner than the Z Fold 6, and at 215g, it is actually lighter than the Galaxy S25 Ultra.
-
Improved Crease: The new "Armor FlexHinge" utilizes a multi-rail structure that, combined with 50% thicker Ultra-Thin Glass (UTG), makes the internal screen crease significantly less visible than on any prior Samsung foldable.
-
Software Status: As of March 2026, the device is currently running One UI 8 (Android 16) and has just entered the One UI 8.5 Beta program, which introduces enhanced Bixby natural language processing and "Now Nudge" AI suggestions.

key Highlights
-
The New FlexWindow: The cover screen has grown to 4.1 inches, wrapping around the cameras to fill nearly the entire top half of the phone. Crucially, it now features a 120Hz refresh rate, making it just as smooth as the internal display.
-
Pocket-Sized AI: Running One UI 8 (Android 16), the Flip 7 is the first to allow full Google Gemini integration directly on the cover screen. You can ask for travel advice, summarize notifications, or use "Now Brief" without ever unfolding the phone.
-
Thinner & Tougher: Using the new Armor FlexHinge, the Flip 7 is only 13.7mm thick when folded—the slimmest in the series. It features Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on the exterior and maintains an IP48 rating for water and dust resistance.
-
ProVisual Engine: While it lacks a telephoto lens, the Flip 7 uses the new ProVisual Engine to provide "AI-enhanced" 2x and 10x digital crops that retain surprising detail, making the 50MP main sensor more versatile.
-
Samsung DeX Support: For the first time, the Flip series supports Samsung DeX, allowing you to plug the phone into a monitor and use it as a desktop workstation.
