Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 & Z Flip 7

Samsung has been providing hints about the forthcoming Galaxy Flip 7, which has been confirmed to feature a larger display and a triple camera system equipped with AI capabilities. Reports suggest that it will include a 6.5-inch cover screen and a sleeker, more refined design measuring only 3.9mm when opened. The main display is expected to be 8.2 inches and maintain a 120Hz refresh rate. Internally, the foldable devices are anticipated to be powered by a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, paired with 12GB of RAM and up to 1TB of storage. Camera enhancements will feature a robust 200MP primary sensor on the rear. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 will operate on One UI 8 and will incorporate additional Galaxy AI functionalities into its software.

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE (Fan Edition)

In an effort to enhance the accessibility of foldable devices, Samsung plans to introduce an affordable clamshell variant, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE (Fan Edition), at the upcoming Unpacked event. According to sources, this budget-friendly model is expected to be priced around 736 USD, which is approximately Rs. 61,000. The pricing may vary by region due to differences in taxes and import duties.

Details regarding the European variant of the Galaxy Z Flip FE have emerged from a Dutch source, GalaxyClub. According to their report, this foldable device can be recognized by the model number SM-F761B and will utilize the Exynos 2400e chipset, which was also featured in last year’s Galaxy S24 FE. While the brand may introduce different system-on-chip (SoCs) in various regions, this remains uncertain at this time. The foldable will be equipped with 8GB of RAM and will incorporate the same camera specifications as the Galaxy Z Flip 5. This includes a 12MP primary camera and a 12MP ultrawide camera on the rear, along with a 10MP front-facing selfie camera.
