The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 has the potential to be among the top-selling foldable smartphones of 2025 based on previous trends, as Samsung’s foldable flip devices offer a compact design paired with a more affordable price compared to its Z Fold series, making them a favored option. So, will this pattern persist into 2025?
At this point, there hasn’t been any official confirmation regarding the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7, but rumors are beginning to surface. Below, you’ll find all the updates, leaks, and speculation surrounding this foldable contender thus far.
We’ll also keep this article updated whenever new rumors arise, so be sure to check back soon if you want to stay up-to-date. Additionally, if you’re curious about our wishlist for the Z Flip 7, take a look at the five features we hope to see.
Our best estimate for the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is July, as the last two models were announced in July, and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 was also released in July.
However, it’s worth noting that the Galaxy Z Flip 5 was launched in August of its release year, and the Z Flip 4 wasn’t even revealed until August. Still, if not in July, we can likely expect the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 to debut in August.
Currently, there are not many rumors concerning the release date, but @PandaFlashPro has mentioned that production for Samsung’s upcoming foldables is set to begin in May, which could align with a July or August announcement.
Additionally, sources have identified both a codename for the Galaxy Z Flip 7 (specifically ‘B7’) and a model number (SM-F751), indicating that this device is indeed in development.
We’ve also received word that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 may retain the same starting price as the Galaxy Z Flip 6, which would suggest a price starting at $1,099.99 / £1,049 / AU$1,799.
The source claiming production will start in May and that prices will remain the same doesn’t have a strong track record, so it’s wise to approach this information with caution. Regardless, we believe a launch in July or August is quite probable.
We can’t solely depend on speculation regarding the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7’s design, as Samsung itself indicated during an earnings call (via @Jukanlosreve) that this year “we will release new foldable products with improved form factors and durability,” so while the Z Flip 7 wasn’t specifically mentioned, it’s plausible that it’s one of the devices referred to.
In addition, it is rumored that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 may feature larger displays than its predecessor, with a source stating that the foldable screen will measure 6.85 inches (up from 6.7 inches), and the cover screen around 4 inches (up from 3.4 inches).
On the design side, leaker @PandaFlashPro claims that the hinge mechanism for the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 will be smoother and more durable, that the button arrangement will follow last year’s layout, and that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will exhibit a smaller crease in the display than its predecessor.
Perhaps most intriguingly, we’ve seen renders (one of which is shown above) depicting a full-width cover display on the Galaxy Z Flip 7.
Regarding color options, it seems that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 might be available in a Coral Red shade, with blue also being a possibility according to the render above.
To date, the design leaks have each come from a single source, so it’s advisable to remain skeptical. However, the statements about larger screens originate from a source known for its reliability, suggesting that at least part of this may hold true.
Regardless, Samsung’s official remarks strongly imply that we can expect changes to the design.
So far, there has only been one camera leak for the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7, and it is not particularly encouraging, as it seems that this device will feature the identical cameras found in the Z Flip 6. This would mean a 50MP main camera, a 12MP ultra-wide camera, and a 10MP front camera.
If that’s the case, it would be rather underwhelming, and we hope that future camera leaks will contradict this.
Nonetheless, we can expect that software improvements will be made, and new AI photography features are likely to be introduced as well.
Since we have only received camera information from one source thus far, it’s prudent to be cautious. That said, it’s plausible that Samsung may not upgrade the cameras, especially considering that the camera specs for the Samsung Galaxy S25 didn’t differ from those of the Samsung Galaxy S24.
There may be concerning news regarding the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7’s chipset, as various rumors suggest it will feature an Exynos 2500.
This is expected to be Samsung’s most powerful in-house smartphone chip for 2025, and it will likely exceed the performance of the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 used in the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6. However, based on previous trends, it may not quite match the Snapdragon 8 Elite, which is found in the Samsung Galaxy S25 series, and which many hoped would be the driving force behind the Galaxy Z Flip 7.
There remains some optimism for the Snapdragon 8 Elite, as another source reports that prototypes of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 exist with both chipsets.
This speculation is bolstered by a report from Korean-language outlet The Bell, which indicated that the yields of Samsung’s Exynos 2500 chip have been lower than anticipated, leading to all models in the Galaxy S25 range adopting a Snapdragon chipset across all markets. This trend is expected to carry over to the Galaxy Z Flip 7, suggesting it will likely utilize a Snapdragon 8 Elite optimized for Galaxy devices.
Regarding software, whispers suggest that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 may debut with Android 16.
Additionally, we’ve come across information indicating that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 could be equipped with 12GB of RAM, along with storage options of 256GB or 512GB—specifications that mirror those of the current model.
Furthermore, leaker @PandaFlashPro shared on X that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 will feature a larger vapor chamber compared to the Z Flip 6, which could help with thermal management and prevent throttling.
This could also improve battery longevity, enhanced by a “highly efficient” display, although details about the phone’s battery remain unspecified. For context, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 has a 4,000mAh battery, so we would anticipate that the Z Flip 7 would feature at least a similar capacity.
Recent tips suggest that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is expected to come with a 4,300mAh battery, an upgrade from the 4,000mAh found in the Galaxy Z Flip 6. When combined with a more advanced chip and improved display efficiency, we might see substantial battery life for the Flip 7.
Each of these specifications has only been mentioned by a single source, so it would be wise to approach them with some skepticism for the time being, though there is nothing inherently unbelievable about them.
Ideally, Samsung will either outfit the device with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset or boost the RAM beyond 12GB—or potentially both. However, this is merely our desire, not a forecast.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is anticipated to launch sometime this year, but when precisely? What will its price be, and what specifications can you look forward to? No matter your inquiry regarding the forthcoming Samsung flip phone, the answers can be found below.
To start, it’s safe to say that you can rely on the Galaxy Z Flip 7 being revealed this summer. Samsung typically announces its latest generation of foldable phones during an Unpacked event in July or August, and there’s no indication that this year will be any exception.
We dedicate a significant amount of time to collecting the most credible leaks and rumors related to upcoming devices, and there’s a lot to explore, so let’s dive into everything we know regarding the Z Flip 7 launch so far.
Samsung usually holds two major “Unpacked” announcement events each year, one in January and another in July or August. Based on previous years — along with the most recent rumors and leaks concerning the Z Flip 7 — we can make a reasonable prediction that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will debut this summer.
The clamshell smartphone is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset, with one rumor indicating that the Z Flip 7 might be equipped with a new Exynos 2500 chipset. The device is also likely to launch with One UI 7 and Android 15, and you can look forward to the Z Flip 7 being packed with the newest Galaxy AI features.
Several rumors also suggest that the Z Flip 7 may feature the larger cover display we’ve been hoping for (similar to Motorola’s Razr Plus, but with a Samsung touch), and the phone is expected to include a new and improved hinge.
Finally, some discussions have hinted that the Z Flip 7 might be announced alongside a new “Fan Edition” version of the device. If this occurs, the Galaxy Z Flip FE will likely share a similar appearance to the standard model, but it may come with a slightly less powerful processor and a more affordable price.
When is the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 expected to launch?
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is likely to be revealed at an Unpacked announcement event in July or August, with an official release date occurring several weeks after the announcement.
This projection is based solely on previous releases of Samsung foldables — for example, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 from 2024 was announced on July 10th and made available on the 24th, while the Z Flip 5 was unveiled on July 26th, 2023, and released on August 11th.
What will the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 cost?
Given that Samsung raised the prices of its foldable phones last year, I anticipate that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will be introduced at the same starting price as its predecessor. That would be $1,099.99 for the 256GB version and $1,219.99 for the 512GB variant. Even if the price remains unchanged, it’s still a significant expense, so keep an eye out for pre-order deals once the phone is unveiled.
Will the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 see a price drop?
While there’s a chance that the Z Flip 6 will be discounted once the Z Flip 7 is announced, it’s equally possible that the 2024 model will simply run out of stock before any considerable discounts are applied. Don’t take my word for it? Just do a quick search on Amazon for the 2023 Galaxy Z Flip 5 and see what you find.
On a positive note, retailers are likely to reduce the price of the Galaxy Z Flip 6 to clear out inventory before the new phone is revealed, especially around the July Amazon Prime Day sale event. As always, Android Central will share the best offers for the Galaxy Z Flip 6 as soon as they become available.
