Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 may debut with slimmer and lighter design: Report

Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Z Fold 7 at its upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event, which may take place on July 9. Ahead of the launch, alleged official renders have surfaced online revealing the foldable in Blue Shadow and Jet Black colour options. According to a report by Android Headlines, two more colour variants may also be on the way. Galaxy Z Fold 7: What to expect Going by the renders, it is expected that the next book-style foldable from Samsung would boast a slimmer design than its predecessor, the Galaxy Z Fold 6. Reports suggest the Fold 7 could measure between 3.9mm and 4.5mm when unfolded. According to Android Headlines, a redesigned hinge is a key factor contributing to the device's reduced thickness and lighter build. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is expected to weigh 215 grams, about 24 grams lighter than the Fold 6. The lighter form factor aligns with Samsung's broader effort to make foldables more portable and user-friendly. Bigger cover display, larger main screen Samsung has consistently widened the outer display with each Fold iteration, and this year is expected to be no different. The cover display on the Fold 7 may measure 6.5-inch, up from 6.3-inch on the Fold 6, and could feature a more traditional aspect ratio. This also suggests that the internal screen might expand to 8.2-inch, offering a more immersive experience. The Fold 7 is expected to be Samsung's slimmest and lightest book-style foldable to date. As per 9To5Google, it could measure 9mm folded and 4.54mm unfolded. The phone is also likely to feature deeper Galaxy AI integration, including system-wide enhancements and voice-enabled features. Samsung teasers have further fueled speculation about a possible Galaxy Z Fold 7 Ultra, a new high-end variant in the Fold series that could introduce performance upgrades and premium materials. Galaxy Z Flip 7 may debut alongside Samsung is also expected to launch the Galaxy Z Flip 7 at the same event. Reports suggest the clamshell-style foldable could be powered by Samsung's Exynos 2500 chipset, marking a departure from Qualcomm's Snapdragon SoCs in foldables. According to TomsGuide, the Flip 7 may bring a larger 4-inch cover display, software-based camera improvements, and fresh case designs. AI enhancements driven by Gemini AI are expected to feature prominently. Android Central reports that the Flip 7 may benefit from improved power efficiency and a less visible crease due to new blue phosphorescent OLED material. Samsung is also said to be working on a more affordable Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE model, which may feature scaled-down specifications.

After Galaxy S25 Edge, Samsung plans 200MP camera upgrade for Galaxy Z Fold 7 users

Just when you thought Samsung's foldables had settled into a predictable groove, the company appears ready to shake things up, quite literally unfolding a bigger surprise. While the Galaxy Z Fold 7 has been expected for months, what's now emerging is a foldable with a noticeably larger cover display and a 200-megapixel camera that may finally silence even the most critical fans. What's particularly eye-catching is Samsung's repeated use of the phrase 'Ultra-experience' in its latest teaser. Fans are speculating that we might not just be looking at a Fold 7, but possibly an Ultra variant, a first for the Fold series. While details remain scarce, this could mean added horsepower under the hood, enhanced display features, or perhaps even exclusive camera of Galaxy Z Fold 7 may sport a 200-megapixel cameraAfter the launch of the Samsung Galaxy S25 Edge, the upcoming fold is expected to be the next-inline to bring a 200-megapixel camera. According to a fresh leak from Dutch outlet the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is expected to be the first global Fold device to boast a 200-megapixel main camera sensor. Until now, such high-resolution sensors have been reserved for Samsung's flagships, with the Fold series trailing behind in the camera department. But this move signals a significant shift in priorities, with Samsung finally aligning its foldables with its best camera the Fold 7 isn't the first device to feature such a sensor. A special edition Z Fold released exclusively in South Korea last year carried a similar setup, but this is the first time such a capability will make its way to broader early reports suggest the rest of the camera array might stick closely to the Fold 6's configuration: a 12-megapixel ultra-wide sensor, a 10-megapixel telephoto lens, and possibly the same under-display selfie camera. In other words, don't expect a full overhaul, just a crucial upgrade in the department that matters we are on the topic of cameras, a recent report shed a few insights on Samsung's plans. According to a recent report, Samsung is increasingly walking a fine line between sleek design and top-tier hardware, especially with its foldable and S-series flagships. Looking ahead, the rumour mill suggests that the Galaxy S26 and S27 Ultra may retain largely the same camera systems as their predecessors—raising questions about when the next photography leap will come. It might not be until the Galaxy S28 series that Samsung introduces major changes like new periscope lenses or larger now, though, Fold fans can breathe easy. The Fold 7 looks set to deliver the most meaningful upgrade the range has seen in years, blending a more practical front display with a high-end camera Galaxy Fold 7: Bigger cover screenSamsung has long faced feedback about the narrow, awkward outer display on its Z Fold devices. But this time, it looks like the company's actually listened. Trusted insiders reveal that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 will feature a much larger cover screen, making it feel more like a conventional smartphone when closed and less like a tall remote the phone hasn't been officially named, Samsung recently dropped a teaser press release with the not-so-subtle promise of a bigger foldable. 'For years, Samsung has listened to users asking for bigger screens, better cameras and new ways to connect and create,' the release states. 'The demand is clear — an Ultra-experience that goes beyond a simple list of upgraded features in a smaller and more portable form factor.'Samsung's early tease of the Fold 7—weeks ahead of its usual Galaxy Unpacked timeline—suggests it's feeling confident. The teaser silhouette in the press image, while shrouded in shadows, unmistakably resembles the Fold's iconic outline, and the language is louder than ever.
