Overview
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 launched in July 2025 as the most refined book-style foldable phone ever made. When unfolded, it reveals a stunning 8.0-inch tablet-grade display perfect for multitasking, video, and creative work. When folded, the 6.5-inch cover screen handles everything a regular phone can do. The new Armor FlexHinge significantly reduces the visible crease, and the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip makes it the fastest Z Fold ever. Starting price is $1,999.

Who Should Buy This?
- Business professionals who want a phone and tablet in one for travel and work
- Multitaskers who regularly need two or more apps open side by side
- People who currently carry both a smartphone and an iPad — this replaces both
- Tech enthusiasts who want the most innovative and unique form factor available
- Executives and creators who work on documents, presentations, and media on the go
Tips & Considerations Before Buying
- Use Flex Mode — prop the phone half-open and it acts as its own camera tripod stand
- Multi-window mode on the 8-inch inner screen is excellent for watching video while messaging simultaneously
- Invest in a high-quality rugged case — at $1,999 the hinge and screens must be well protected
- Battery life is the weak point — carry a compact power bank for heavy full-day use
- Visit a Samsung store and try the folded thickness in your pocket before committing to the purchase
