All that Samsung announced in its unpopular summer event

Fold7 length is 8.9 mm when it folds, which is a radical decrease in Galaxy Z 12.1 mm. It is unfolded, as you look at a minimal thickness of 4.2 mm, a decrease from 5.6 mm last year. Honor Magic v5 The foldable phone, which was announced last week, outperforms Samsung over the thinness at 8.8 mm folded and 4.1 mm is unfolded, but Samsung specifications are still great. Fold7 is also lighter in 215 grams, and it is a decrease of 24 g of Fold6. Weighs less than iPhone 16 Pro Max.

What is crazy is that the screen sizes are larger. The outer screen is wider with a width ratio to a height of 21: 9, more like a regular smartphone, and sits at a speed of 6.5 inches comfortable. Open Fold7 and you will get an 8 -inch screen (higher than 7.6 inches), similar Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold. The weight and thinness savings greatly affect a foldable phone because it was historically heavier and thicker than the candy bar phones, but this is no longer the case.

Samsung still claims that this phone is more durable despite the slimming, thanks to the use of Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2, which combines ceramic crystals into the glass to strengthen, such as Apple’s porcelain shield on iPhone. The detailed is also supposed to be more durable with less visible bias on the screen at the barn point.

Outside the material changes, Fold7 is one of the first to run Android 16 outside the box. It is supported by the Snapdragon 8 Elite slices of Qualcomm and 12 GB of RAM, such as the leading Galaxy S25 series. It has the same 4400 -MA battery capacity like Fold6 last year. The main camera is now in 200 megapixels, such as S25 UltraI joined the 10 -megapixel phone, providing 3X visual auxiliary and Ultrawide 12 MP. The 10 -megapixel Selfie main camera on the interior screen has a wider view of 100 degrees, allowing more people to pressure the shot.

Samsung has not had many software features or changes that should be shared outside the best applications to take advantage of the large screen. For example, Gemini can be expanded from Google and used in different ways, including a floating window or a divided screen. When you edit an image in the Samsung Gallery app, you can see the original version next to the modified version on the 8 -inch screen of Fold7, allowing a comparison side by side. Other software improvements that Samsung described include the ability to use Google’s Search circle At games, so that you can get specific information about the elements in the games or maybe quick ties to roam if you are stuck. (Artificial intelligence mode from Google is now available directly through Circle to Search.)

Unfortunately, POD7 jumped at $ 100; It is now costing $ 2000. Samsung is trying to run by calling it the “Ultra” experience, as it matches the excellent Galaxy S25 Ultra, but hardline fans may not like there is no support from the pen pen on Fold7. I managed to purchase a separate folding pen with previous devices, but fold7 completely overlooks the ability. There is also an additional option for 5x visual austerity such as Galaxy S25 Ultra.

Flip7 changes make them less than any time like Dramatic like fold7. However, it seems more intelligent, with a 4.1 -inch cover screen that mimics what Motorola was Do it with its face phones. This includes The update rate of 120 Hz And a brighter painting. The interior screen is also slightly larger, at 6.9 inches, and the arthropod feels more stable and smoother.
