For the first time in the series, the device offers a 200MP ultra-high-resolution main camera and the powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor.

Also equipped with a ProVisual Engine boasting more than 160 AI-powered imaging technologies, Galaxy Z Fold7 seamlessly merges flagship camera performance and intelligent processing in a versatile foldable design.

From filming vivid night videos to capturing more of the world with its ultra-wide lens, here’s how the thinnest and lightest Z Fold yet is built to keep up with your creative vision.

200MP Sensor: Next-Level Clarity in Every Frame

The upgraded camera system takes your photography to the next level.

At the heart of Galaxy Z Fold7’s camera system lies its 200MP wide-angle camera, the same found in Galaxy S25 Ultra and the highest-ever resolution sensor in the Z Fold series. With it, you can now capture every nuance of a scene, from the rich textures and colors of clothes in your holiday photos to the delicate contours of the vast landscape behind you. Here are some of the key benefits of Galaxy Z Fold7’s wide-angle camera:

• Captures shots that are 44% brighter and 4 times more detailed than those taken with Galaxy Z Fold6, ensuring every image is vivid, textured and ready to share.
• Maintains image quality at 2x optical-grade zoom, delivering sharp, clear results even when digitally zooming in — so you can reframe or crop images without sacrificing detail.
• A shutter speed that is up to 7 times faster, enabling you to take crisp, detailed photos of important moments.

The 200MP sensor ensures you can capture every detail.

Looking to highlight the intricate details of your latest artwork or piece of jewelry? The enhanced 12MP ultra-wide lens on Galaxy Z Fold7 now supports auto focus, enabling macro photography, so you can take close-ups with exceptional sharpness and depth.

To maintain precise focus at close range, the device leverages Dual Camera Depth Calibration — a system that intelligently gauges subject distance and seamlessly switches between the wide and ultra-wide cameras when needed. This allows you to achieve consistent sharpness without manually changing cameras. The addition of autofocus to the ultra-wide camera further enhances accuracy, making it easier than ever to shoot detailed close-ups with clarity.

Fit the Whole Crew in Wide-Angle Selfies

The 100-degree front camera on the main display allows you to take large group selfies with ease.

Getting everyone in the frame no longer means stretching your arm to the limit or asking the group to back up. The enhanced 100-degree front camera on the main display captures more of the scene so you can easily fit everyone in the shot. Features and upgrades include:

• Front camera photos that are 25% wider and 2.5 times clearer compared to those taken with Galaxy Z Fold6.
• The camera uses Wide Distortion Correction, which automatically adjusts proportions and reduces distortion when faces are near the edges of frames, allowing everyone to look more natural in wide shots.
• More natural skin texture on photo subjects, thanks to AI-driven adjustments optimized for the selfie experience.
• Enhanced HDR processing for portraits that prioritizes the subject for more true-to-life rendering.
• AI-powered filters trained on over 5,000 real analog film images, letting you fine-tune your photos based on contrast, saturation and color temperature to achieve a look that blends natural aesthetics with artistic expression.

Light Up Night Shoots With the ProVisual Engine

Galaxy Z Fold7 shines brightest after dark, thanks to its AI-powered ProVisual Engine that processes images faster^[1]and optimizes every scene.

The energy of an evening concert or a night out with friends can be recorded in stunning clarity. By analyzing movement and light in real time, Galaxy Z Fold7 reduces noise effectively and delivers crystal-clear results — even in challenging low-light conditions:

• Enhanced Nightography leverages an advanced Spatio-Temporal Filter that analyzes pixel data both within each frame and between frames. When analyzing across multiple frames, it separates the subject from the background to reduce background noise. Footage quality is further refined as noise is removed based on continuous pixel patterns within individual frames. The result is sharper, clearer night footage with natural light and fine detail.

Videos get a further boost from the introduction of advanced 10-bit HDR video recording:

• Overall color expression is enhanced with 4 times richer contrast and a wider dynamic range compared to standard 8-bit recordings.
• Galaxy Z Fold7 supports Hybrid Log Gamma (HLG^[2], ensuring broad compatibility with regular displays and TVs.

LOG video recording is supported as well — particularly useful for creators who want more flexibility during post-production. Videos can be edited with greater ease, thanks to:

• The 10-bit High Efficiency Video Coding (HEVC^[3]) codec for advanced compression and editing freedom.
• The ability to fine-tune color grading using Samsung Look-Up Table (LUT^[4]), right from the device.

A Portable Editing Studio Right in Your Hands

With Galaxy Z Fold7, there’s no need to get back to your desk before editing content. The device itself is your own portable creative studio, with its large display allowing you to edit like a pro — anytime, anywhere with precision like never before:

• Generative Edit, enhanced with a refined AI model and more advanced prompt processing, now delivers an 18-fold reduction in the mis-generation rate and a 4-fold cut in texture distortion compared to Galaxy Z Fold6. The upgrade allows you to effortlessly remove unwanted objects — along with related elements such as shadows or reflections — adjust angles, and naturally fill in backgrounds, resulting in polished, professional-quality photos.
• Through Galaxy AI’s scene-understanding capabilities, Suggest Erases proactively suggests edits like removing passersby or other distractions in photos for flawless, clean shots.
• Side-by-Side Editing lets you compare original and edited versions of your photos in real time for quick editing on the go.
• Improved with advanced AI prompt engineering, Portrait Studio helps pet lovers and portrait enthusiasts alike refine images to capture vibrant expressions and striking profiles.

Unfold Your Creativity

Galaxy Z Fold7’s next-generation camera and editing tools make creating high-quality content simpler, faster and more intuitive than ever before. More than just a foldable, Galaxy Z Fold7 takes your craft to new heights as your personal creative assistant.

Samsung Newsroom explored the Galaxy A56 5G and A36 5G, highlighting four key elements that set them apart.

1. Stylish — A Sleek and Compact Design

The Iconic Galaxy A Series Look, Now More Refined

The Galaxy A56 5G and A36 5G take the signature design of the Galaxy A series to the next level, blending modern sophistication with a sleek aesthetic. The first thing that catches the eye is their slim, flat frame.

The Galaxy A56 5G features a polished metal frame, available in a range of stylish colours. The A56 5G’s colourways stand out with their milky matte finish, while the A36 5G’s colour options captivate with their holographic effects.

▲ The Galaxy A56 5G will be available in Awesome Pink, Awesome Olive, Awesome Lightgray and Awesome Graphite, while the Galaxy A36 5G will come in Awesome Lime, Awesome Black, Awesome Lavender and Awesome White.

Their minimalist yet elegant rear design features a clean, vertically aligned three-lens camera layout with black camera rings that further enhance the refined aesthetic.

A Slimmer and Lighter Body

Both the Galaxy A56 5G and A36 5G feature a 6.7-inch screen, 0.1 inch larger than that of their predecessors. The FHD+ Super AMOLED display delivers a peak brightness of 1,200 nits — 200 nits brighter than before — ensuring an even more immersive and vivid viewing experience.

Trimmed down by 0.8mm compared to their predecessors, both models also sport a slimmer profile at just 7.4mm thick, offering a firm yet comfortable grip when held. The flat key island design on the sides complement the streamlined aesthetic, adding to the devices’ refined look.

Thanks to their slimmer design, both devices are also lighter than the previous models, despite having larger displays. The Galaxy A56 5G weighs 198g — 15g lighter than its predecessor, while the Galaxy A36 5G shed 14g to come in at 195g.

▲ The slim 7.4mm profile combined with the flat frame and key island design offers a firm, comfortable grip when held.

2. Versatile and Intelligent — Fueled by Awesome Intelligence

Searching Made Simple With Circle to Search

Circle to Search makes finding information effortless. All users need to do is long press the home button , then draw a circle around anything interesting they see on their screen and watch in awe as Google provides relevant search results in an instant.

And it’s not just for images! Circle to Search now recognises music as well — for example, the background music playing in a video. When watching something on YouTube, simply long press the home button. Then tap the music button to instantly find the name of the song featured in the video and the artist who sings it. That same song can be identified even when sung or hummed by a person, instead of being played from the video’s original audio.

3. Picture-Perfect — Smarter Camera Features and Photo-Editing Tools

Nightography and Object Eraser — Flawless Selfies Even at Night

Imagine taking in the atmosphere during a nighttime walk and snapping a selfie, only to be disappointed by the noise in the final image. Or perhaps a scenario where a countless number of selfies had to be taken before realising none of them quite achieved the right look. With the enhanced Nightography feature on the Galaxy A56 5G, those frustrations are a thing of the past. Clear, vibrant selfies can be captured even at night with a 12MP front camera optimised to reduce noise and deliver smoother results.

Unwanted objects in the background can take away from the perfect selfie as well. Simply trace around those objects to remove them, and Object Eraser will seamlessly fill in the space where they originally were to blend naturally with the background, resulting in a clean, crisp photo.

▲ Clear, vibrant selfies can be taken even at night with Nightography.

Custom Camera Filters for Standout Selfies

Some portrait photos on social media just have that one vibe, an unmistakable look hard to find anywhere else. Instead of scrolling past those images, why not save them? With the Filters feature, users can easily create their own custom camera filters using saved images. Achieving the perfect selfie with the desired aesthetic has never been easier.

Best Face — Perfect Group Photos Everyone Will Love

Group selfies don’t always go as planned — someone could be blinking or have an awkward expression on their face. But with the Best Face feature, those slip-ups are an easy fix. Best Face analyses the multiple frames of pictures taken using Motion Photo to recommend the best ones. All that is left for Galaxy A56 5G users to do afterwards is simply browse through the suggested frames and select a flawless group selfie where everyone looks their best.

4. Powerful and Secure — Enhanced Privacy Safeguards

The Galaxy A56 5G and A36 5G are the first in the Galaxy A series to feature One UI 7, offering more robust security than ever before. One key highlight is the hardware-backed Knox Vault, which combines a secure processor with secure memory to isolate users’ most sensitive data — like personal identification numbers (PINs) and passwords — from the rest of their device and ensure that no one else can physically or remotely access them. The new smartphones also come equipped with a range of extensive security innovations, including an enhanced Auto Blocker — Galaxy’s opt-in package of security measures that prevents unauthorised app installations and other security threats — and the new Theft Protection feature, which ensures personal data is protected even when devices are lost or stolen.

Samsung also promises six years of security updates along with up to six generations of Android OS and One UI upgrades for the Galaxy A56 5G and A36 5G, ensuring a secure and reliable mobile experience for years to come.

The Galaxy A series is back with cutting-edge innovations. With the Awesome Intelligence-integrated Galaxy A56 5G and A36 5G, Samsung looks forward to seeing even more people enjoy an Awesome lifestyle.

During the unveiling of the Samsung Galaxy S23 series, Samsung Electronics announced that the smartphone would “offer the best camera experience supported by the highest performance yet”. Fast forward a couple of months and the reviews are in. If many of the reviews and reports on it are anything to go by, the new Series has put its best foot forward and certainly hit all the right notes. Read on to see what some of South Africa’s top media had to say about the Samsung Galaxy S23 Series.

“Samsung’s latest flagship has proven that the Galaxy S23 series is on par with what you’d expect from a premium phone in 2023. True to form, the Samsung S23 Plus and its epic sister, the S23 Ultra (which packs Samsung’s first ever 200MP main camera) are not only notably larger than their predecessors, but are more efficient in every way possible; from improved camera, efficient display and overall better specs, with the battery lasting 20 percent longer,” wrote Tankiso Komane, the award-winning publisher and journalist of Now in SA.

The Fortress of Solitude’s Evan Saunders, a seasoned professional with over two decades in technology journalism, shared his impressions about what comes out of the Galaxy S23 box. He said “although the S23 range still features the Android 13 OS, which many of the most recent smartphones were upgraded to in 2022, the new range comes with One UI 5.1 out of the box. This brings with it a host of optimisations and fresh features, especially in the form of multitasking.” He got to spend a few weeks with the Galaxy S23 Plus and his overall take on the device was that, “The Samsung Galaxy S23 Plus is a great standalone smartphone. It offers all the modern features you’d need in a daily driver and is optimised for long battery life and multitasking.”

Another place where you can look for reviews on the plus and base devices in the Galaxy S23 series is HTXT, one of South Africa’s leading technology news and review sites. Hypertext’s editor, Robyn-Leigh Chetty said, “Samsung has pretty much perfected its flagship phone-making process.” When talking about performance the site said that that’s where the base Galaxy S23 really starts to shine. “Running things is the latest mobile silicon from Qualcomm, namely the octa-core Snapdragon 8 Gen 2 processor, which is paired with 8GB of RAM and 256GB storage. It is a solid mix that yields the best benchmarking we have recorded to date.” The site goes on to say the user interface is “relatively clean and simple to use and the modest 3 900mAh battery on offer delivers a surprisingly long amount of life, as we were able to get through a day and a half before a charge was required.”

As a final verdict, Hypertext said, “The base model Samsung Galaxy S23 is a good phone and the latest in a long line of flagship offerings from the South Korean outfit that delivers a simple and clean aesthetic, powerful performance, clear display, and solid battery life.”

Top Tech Reviewer and editor of Stuff Magazine, Brett Venter took special note of the leaps in innovation in this new Galaxy S series. He said, “Samsung’s out to wow you and if you’ve been away from the upgrade game for a while, it absolutely will. The Galaxy S23 Ultra is the company’s greatest phone to date. We kinda say that every year but it’s always true.”

In closing, Brett Venter said this to his readers, “If you’re considering the Galaxy S23 Ultra, you’re probably after the power, the camera, or the stylus. Odds are you’re only reading reviews to reinforce how right your opinion is. Yes, yes. Well done. You’ve got your sights set on Samsung’s best smartphone to launch in 2023 (barring some sort of technological miracle).”

The Galaxy S23 series doesn’t only make a case for itself as one of the best premium smartphone offerings, it does so while pursuing sustainability and giving users an epic experience at the same time.

In writing for the eco-conscious audience,  Accountancy SA (SAICA) magazine’s seasoned corporate business writer, Mpho Netshivhambe said “It is our responsibility today to take care about and for our environment so that future generations will enjoy the same benefits we enjoy. The Galaxy S23 raises the bar for premium technology designed with the planet in mind. It is made using even more recycled materials including pre-consumer recycled aluminium and recycled glass, and post-consumer recycled plastics sourced from discarded fishing nets, water barrels and polyethylene terephthalate bottles.”
