Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 in for review

Samsung’s latest flip-foldable, the Galaxy Z Flip7, is now in for review, and it’s already generating quite a buzz. While it may fly a bit under the radar compared to its sibling, the Galaxy Z Fold7, many believe the Flip7 will be the more popular choice among consumers due to its sleek design and practical form factor. Samsung continues to refine the flip-phone experience with this new iteration, focusing on both aesthetics and usability.

The retail package remains simple and straightforward — you get the phone, a SIM eject tool, and a USB-C cable. The Galaxy Z Flip7 is available in two configurations: 12GB RAM with either 256GB or 512GB of storage. Customers can choose from four colors: Blue Shadow, Jet Black, Coral Red, and an online-exclusive Mint, providing options that cater to a variety of tastes.

One of the biggest upgrades in the Z Flip7 is the cover screen, which has grown significantly from 3.4 inches to 4.1 inches, stretching from edge to edge. To accommodate this larger screen, Samsung slimmed down the bezels and slightly adjusted the phone’s dimensions, making it a bit wider and taller. Despite these changes, the Flip7 remains compact when folded, measuring 13.7mm thick closed and 6.5mm when opened — thinner than its predecessor.

The inner display has also seen an improvement, increasing in size from 6.7 inches to 6.9 inches, offering users a noticeably larger screen experience. Meanwhile, the cover screen has become smarter too. By default, it acts like a big Galaxy Watch, showing widgets rather than full apps. However, users can enable all apps on the cover screen via Samsung Labs and the Galaxy Store app MultiStar. While not all apps optimize fully for the outer screen, the ability to use more apps there is a welcome addition — though it still falls short compared to Motorola’s Razr 60 Ultra, which allows any app on its cover screen without any tweaks.

We’re excited to dive deeper into the Galaxy Z Flip7 and provide a thorough review soon. Our team is working hard to test all the latest phones we have, so please bear with us as we explore everything this innovative device has to offer. Stay tuned for detailed insights, and thanks for your patience!
