I wanted to recommend the Samsung Z Flip 7 FE to everyone - but then I saw the price

zdnet.com Prakhar Khanna 2025-08-11 04:33:00

Prakhar Khanna/ZDNET Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is a big upgrade over its predecessor. It features an edge-to-edge cover-screen display, a bigger battery, and more polished AI features. It retains the $1,099 price tag, but Samsung needed a flip phone under $1,000 to address the increasing competition from Motorola Razr. Enter the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE.

Im Never Splitting AirPods With My Wife Again Thanks to This iPhone Trick

cnet.com See Full Bio 2025-08-10 22:30:03

When my wife and I travel, we usually download some shows to watch on our flight. But we always have to split a set of AirPods when we watch these shows so we each have one earbud. That means one of our ears is enjoying the show while the other is forced to endure the crying baby behind us on the plane, which can be distracting. But thanks to Apple's Audio Sharing feature, we can each enjoy a show together while using our own sets of AirPods. Audio Sharing was introduced with iOS 18 and iPadOS

I Was Excited About Samsung's Cheaper Folding Phone. Then I Saw the Price

Every young person today should get to experience the specific fun, flirty pleasure of having a quirky flip phone that is both a fashion accessory and a cutting-edge piece of tech. It's the noughties tech experience in a nutshell – or a clamshell, if you will. But even though folding phones are now more sophisticated than ever thanks to advances in flexible screen technology, the devices on the market are usually extortionately expensive.

Hands-On With the Galaxy Z Fold 7: So Thin You Forget It's a Foldable

Perhaps the most extraordinary thing about the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is how ordinary it feels in my hand. Well, at least when it's closed. Unfolded, it's a whole different story. I got to check out the Z Fold 7 during Samsung's Unpacked event in New York on Tuesday and Wednesday, along with the Z Flip 7 and Z Flip 7 FE.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is here, and it’s one of the thinnest foldables to date

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-11 12:00:28

TL;DR Samsung has launched the Galaxy Z Fold 7 foldable phone at its Unpacked event. This is the lightest book-style foldable phone on the market, and among the thinnest ones too. Expect to pay $1,999 when the Galaxy Z Fold 7 goes on sale. We’ve seen several slim book-style foldable phones in the last couple of years, but Samsung has largely refused to follow this trend for its mainline Fold models. Fortunately, that changes today as the company has just launched the Galaxy Z Fold 7. Samsung

5 reasons I’d buy the Galaxy Z Flip 7 over the Fold 7

Samsung’s new foldables may look like minor upgrades on the surface, but give them a closer look and the changes add up — enough to finally catch up with what Oppo and OnePlus have already been doing design-wise. Thankfully, Samsung’s finally in the same league again. And of the two foldables they’ve launched, I’m leaning strongly toward the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7. To be honest, I haven’t been a fan of the Galaxy Z Flip lineup so far — it always felt like it was trying too hard to milk nostalg

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold series is the most widely available book-style foldable phone family. However, I’ve only begrudgingly recommended these devices to people wanting a large foldable. That’s mostly because Samsung has coasted on the design and hardware front while rivals have sprinted ahead with exciting designs and impressive hardware. After laying my hands on the Galaxy Z Fold 7, though, I’d argue that in some ways, it’s the most cutting-edge foldable
