																<content:encoded><![CDATA[<p><span>On July 09, Samsung Electronics unveiled the Galaxy Z Flip7 and Galaxy Z Flip7 FE at Galaxy Unpacked 2025 in Brooklyn — marking another step forward in foldable innovation. </span></p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<p><span>The Galaxy Z Flip7 raises the bar for flip-style smartphones, combining a compact, pocketable design with intuitive AI experiences and the largest cover screen in the Galaxy Z Flip series to date. Samsung Newsroom got an exclusive early look at the Galaxy Z Flip7 during Galaxy Unpacked 2025.</span></p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<p><img class="alignnone wp-image-23081 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/001-Galaxy-Unpacked-2025-A-First-Look-at-the-Galaxy-Z-Flip7-Refining-the-Pocketable-Foldable-Newsbody-e1752830725587.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span><strong>Design: Larger Window in a Slimmer Frame</strong></span></p>
<p><span>The Galaxy Z Flip7 introduces the Galaxy Z Flip series’ largest cover screen and its slimmest design yet. The standout 4.1-inch FlexWindow features ultra-thin 1.25-millimeter bezels, allowing the display to span nearly the entire cover — excluding the camera lens, for an expanded viewing experience. Everyday tasks such as checking schedules, replying to messages or using AI-powered features can be done without unfolding the device.</span><span> </span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<div id="attachment_23082" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img class="wp-image-23082 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/002-Galaxy-Unpacked-2025-A-First-Look-at-the-Galaxy-Z-Flip7-Refining-the-Pocketable-Foldable-Newsbody-e1752830832687.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /><p class="wp-caption-text">▲ Ultra-thin bezels allow the FlexWindow to stretch from edge to edge.</p></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span>When opened, a 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X main display is revealed. Both the FlexWindow and main display support up to 2,600 nits of brightness, a 120-hertz refresh rate and Vision Booster technology for improved outdoor visibility — delivering clear, vivid content anytime, anywhere.</span></p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<div id="attachment_23083" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img class="wp-image-23083 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/003-Galaxy-Unpacked-2025-A-First-Look-at-the-Galaxy-Z-Flip7-Refining-the-Pocketable-Foldable-Newsbody-e1752830912587.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /><p class="wp-caption-text">▲ A larger main display delivers sharper visuals.</p></div>
<p><span> </span></p>
<p><span>Measuring 6.5 millimetres when unfolded, 13.7 millimetres when folded and weighing 188 grams, the Galaxy Z Flip7 is the slimmest yet — refining the compactness and portability that define the Galaxy Z Flip series.</span></p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<div id="attachment_23084" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img class="wp-image-23084 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/004-Galaxy-Unpacked-2025-A-First-Look-at-the-Galaxy-Z-Flip7-Refining-the-Pocketable-Foldable-Newsbody-e1752831017274.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /><p class="wp-caption-text">▲ The Galaxy Z Flip7 is 6.5 millimetres thick when unfolded, shown next to a pen for scale.</p></div>
<p><span> </span></p>
<p><span> A durable Armor Aluminum frame and a thinner, reinforced Armor FlexHinge improve resilience while maintaining the device’s sleek silhouette.</span></p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<div id="attachment_23087" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img class="wp-image-23087 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/005-Galaxy-Unpacked-2025-A-First-Look-at-the-Galaxy-Z-Flip7-Refining-the-Pocketable-Foldable-Newsbody-e1752831347712.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="667" /><p class="wp-caption-text">▲ The Armor FlexHinge provides smooth, reliable folding over extended use.</p></div>
<p>&nbsp;</p>
<p><span>Inside, a 4, 300 mAh battery — the largest ever in the Galaxy Z Flip series — supports up to 31 hours of video playback for extended use with less worry about charging.</span></p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<h3><span><strong>Multi-modal AI and One UI 8: Ready-to-Go Personal Assistant</strong></span></h3>
<p><span>In today’s fast-paced world, relying on AI has become second nature. The Galaxy Z Flip7 takes those interactions further — offering a more intuitive, seamless experience through One UI 8, optimised for the expanded FlexWindow and advanced multimodal AI technology.</span></p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<p><span>For example, users planning a trip can check their schedule directly from the FlexWindow through Now Brief.</span></p>
<p>&nbsp;</p>

<div id="attachment_23096" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img class="wp-image-23096 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/007-Galaxy-Unpacked-2025-A-First-Look-at-the-Galaxy-Z-Flip7-Refining-the-Pocketable-Foldable-Newsbody-e1752832749238.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="537" /><p class="wp-caption-text">▲ The FlexWindow displays information such as schedules via Now Brief.</p></div>
<p><span> </span></p>
<p><span>Long pressing the power button launches Google’s Gemini Live, offering travel-ready help including restaurant recommendations, weather updates and outfit suggestions using the camera.</span></p>
<p><span> </span></p>
<div id="attachment_23097" style="width: 1010px" class="wp-caption alignnone"><img class="wp-image-23097 size-full" src="https://img.global.news.samsung.com/za/wp-content/uploads/2025/07/008-Galaxy-Unpacked-2025-A-First-Look-at-the-Galaxy-Z-Flip7-Refining-the-Pocketable-Foldable-Newsbody-e1752832878763.jpg" alt="" width="1000" height="567" /><p class="wp-caption-text">▲ Gemini Live supports camera screen sharing for real-time assistance.</p></div>
<p><span> </span></p>
<p><span>The Galaxy Z Flip7 moves beyond design innovation, offering an AI experience that fits naturally into everyday routines. With its pocket-friendly size and built-for-anywhere features, the Galaxy Z Flip7 elevates the standard for foldables.</span></p>
