Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 fresh leak leaves little to the imagination before rumoured July 9 launch
July is fast approaching, and so is the Galaxy Unpacked event, which is rumoured to take place on July 9. At this event, Samsung is expected to announce a range of foldables and wearables. However, the spotlight of the show — as it always has been with mid-year Unpacked events — will be on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7. That said, we don't need to wait until July to know about the upcoming Samsung foldables, as the duo — Fold and Flip — have leaked in all their glory, leaving little to the imagination. advertisementFolks over at Android Headlines have got their hands on some alleged 'official' renders of the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7. Both phones look amazing, especially in the new blue colour and how sleek they appear. Speaking of which, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is super thin, and you only realise it when you see it next to the Galaxy Z Fold 6. Galaxy Z Fold 7 (left) and Galaxy Z Fold 6 (right) / Credit: Android Headlines Without further ado, let's start with the details on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7. This phone is said to come in two colours: Jet Black and Blue Shadow. The latter shade will remind you of the Galaxy S24's blue variant, and it looks absolutely fire. Apart from this, the rumours about its slimness are also turning out to be true — or at least if the leaks are to be believed. The phone looks astonishingly slim against the Galaxy Z Fold 6, and it will reportedly measure between 3.9mm and 4.5mm in thickness when unfolded. For perspective, the OPPO Find N5 is currently the thinnest foldable, with a 4.2mm thickness when unfolded. Will the Fold 7 beat it? We'll find out soon. Galaxy Z Fold 7 / Credit: Android Headlines advertisement In terms of weight, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is expected to weigh 215 grams — making it 24 grams lighter than the Galaxy Z Fold 6, and about 14 grams lighter than the OPPO Find N5. To give you a sense, the Galaxy S25 Ultra weighs 218 grams. So, if you've ever held one of those, you may get somewhat of an idea of how the Fold 7 might feel in the from this, other leaks suggest the Galaxy Z Fold 7 will feature a 6.5-inch cover display along with an 8.2-inch inner display. It is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip and is rumoured to come with a triple-rear camera system, led by a 200-megapixel primary to the Galaxy Z Flip 7 — this one is about to get sleeker than ever. Again, not that the Galaxy Z Flip 6 was bulky or anything, but looking at the renders and when you see the Galaxy Z Flip 7 next to the Flip 6, it's hard not to notice how the upcoming model is substantially slimmer. We also expect it to be lighter than the previous model. For context, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 measures 6.9mm when unfolded and weighs 187 grams. Galaxy Z Flip 7 (left) and Galaxy Z Flip 6 (right) / Credit: Android Headlines Other than this, the renders also confirm an earlier leak about the Galaxy Z Flip 7 getting a larger cover screen. This is rumoured to be 4 inches in size, compared to the 3.4-inch cover screen on the Flip 6. Also, similar to the Fold, the renders show the Galaxy Z Flip 7 in the Blue Shadow and Jet Black colourways. Galaxy Z Flip 7 / Credit: Android Headlines Other rumours suggest a Snapdragon 8 Elite or the Exynos 2500 chip under the hood, paired with a 4,000mAh battery and at least 12GB RAM and 256GB storage. The camera setup is also expected to remain the same as the older Flip 6 — i.e. a 50-megapixel primary sensor paired with a 12-megapixel ultra-wide camera, along with a 10-megapixel front camera for selfies and video said — while the renders and leaks share a lot of information about Samsung's foldables, and as we said, leave very little to the imagination — these are, at the end of the day, just leaks. Until Samsung makes anything official, we'd suggest you take all the information with a huge grain of is expected to unveil the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 during the Unpacked event, rumoured to take place on July 9. Other devices expected at the event include the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE — the company's first-ever Fan Edition foldable phone, the Galaxy G Fold — Samsung's heavily rumoured triple-fold phone, along with the Galaxy Watch 8 series, including the Watch 8, Watch 8 Classic and Watch Ultra tuned to India Today Tech for all the latest on Samsung's upcoming foldable smartphones and the Galaxy Unpacked event.

The expected setup includes a 50-megapixel main camera, a 12-megapixel ultra-wide, and a 10-megapixel selfie these rumours are accurate, the Xiaomi Mix Flip 2 could give Samsung's foldable a real run for its money — at least in markets where both are available. While Xiaomi is expected to launch the Mix Flip 2 in China first, a global launch could follow in July, making it the company's only foldable phone for those who don't know, Xiaomi launched the first-generation Mix Flip last year in China, alongside the Mix Fold 4.

The Galaxy Z Flip 6 helped cure my doomscrolling addiction
A month ago I decided to slap my SIM card inside the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and do a long-term review of the flip phone form factor in general. The idea was to see where flip phones stand in the wake of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 announcement, what the current drawbacks are, and what these devices are doing right. A couple of days into this experience, I realized something. Using a flip phone has instantly changed my smartphone habits in different and very interesting ways. First, the good. The Galaxy Z Flip 6 cured my doomscrolling addiction almost completely. What is doomscrolling? Doomscrolling on PhoneArena? No, seriously - put the phone down | Image by PhoneArena" Most of you are probably quite familiar with the term, but it has changed since its inception. Originally, doomscrolling was defined as the act of repeatedly consuming negative or distressing news and social media content, often for extended periods. Nowadays, it involves mindlessly scrolling all kinds of content, from stand-up comedy to people getting wasted on motorcycles to cats doing weird things (of course). Without getting into too much detail, this mechanism is tied to our dopamine reward system. Basically, when we see something interesting, funny, or engaging (it could be negative as well), our brain fires some dopamine to reward us for getting that information. Tens of thousands of years ago, such information might've been crucial to our survival. Social networks and other internet outlets know about this mechanism and exploit it to the fullest. That's the main reason infinite scroll (where elements constantly load as you scroll down) was invented. So, you end up wasting hours just swiping reels or stories, or whatever type of platform you're hooked to – it's basically the same mechanism in the core of all of them. How did the Galaxy Z Flip 6 help? To unfold or not to unfold, that is the question! | Image by PhoneArena Ever since I put my SIM into the Galaxy Z Flip 6 , my smartphone habits have changed completely. After just a day or so, I found it too cumbersome and tiring to constantly open and close the thing in order to stay true to my doomscrolling habits. I used to check my phone several times per hour, even with no notifications whatsoever. Just for the sake of getting that dopamine kick from some online content. A quick Instagram check, a Facebook scroll, a Tinder swipe or two (or 100, I know, I know). Somehow, however, the act of opening and closing the Galaxy Z Flip 6 was enough of a deterrent to keep me from doing all of the above every hour. Am I actually more lazy than addicted? That's an interesting thought. When a flaw becomes a feature This 3.4-inch cover screen is not suited for doomscrolling | Image by PhoneArena One of the main reasons this worked so well is that the cover screen of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 is not very capable. I'm being a bit harsh here, but in my opinion, it's too many actions to complete even the simplest of tasks. Unlocking the phone from the cover screen isn't working very smoothly; then you have to swipe and scroll to get to notifications and tap to see them, and I wouldn't call the experience smooth or rewarding. I know you can download and install Goodlock to breathe some new life into the cover screen, and it's just one click affair, but the need to do so just goes to show that the cover screen is not great in its default state and this is a patch. The other thing is that 3.4 inches is just too small. You just can't doomscroll on the cover screen of the Z Flip 6 . Watching videos is weird and straining (even if you manage to get Netflix running), and reading text for an extended period of time is dreadful. In this case, though, a flaw suddenly turned into a feature. The physical effort needed to open the Galaxy Z Flip 6 , coupled with a not-so-capable cover screen, has helped tremendously with my phone addiction. We're now very close to the official announcement of the successor – the Galaxy Z Flip 7 – and I'm pretty sure Samsung has improved the cover screen to match what Motorola has been doing with the Razr lineup in the past couple of years. So, I'm gonna repeat this experiment once the Galaxy Z Flip 7 comes out and share the results. And also try the same exercise with the Motorola Razr Ultra to see if the same effect would be present with a more capable cover screen. The Razr Ultra looks like a good candidate for further testing | Image by PhoneArena Prior to this little experiment with the Galaxy Z Flip 6 , I was planning to get a dumb phone and do some kind of digital detox. But it's too big of a compromise, especially in my line of work. I need to be able to do some work on the go if I have to, and going down the dumb phone route is not an option. I found the modern flexible screen flip phone, and the Galaxy Z Flip 6 specifically, the perfect balance. It works for me. I might never return to candy bar phones as a personal daily driver. What about you? Have you found flip phones to have this specific impact on your smartphone habits? Is it just me? And is there a niche to market such phones as smartphone-detox-friendly?
