Samsung previously omitted DeX from the Flip lineup due to thermal concerns, an issue it has seemingly resolved for the Galaxy Z Flip 7. Clamshell foldables like the Galaxy Z Flip are gaining popularity by

To achieve this slim profile, Samsung has removed the digitizer layer from the inner display, consequently dropping S Pen support. Samsung has just launched the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which finally features a noticeably thinner design that is easier to hold. While everyone gushes over how good it feels in the hand, this thinner design comes at a cost: the Fold 7 no longer supports the S Pen. Samsung hasn’t me

When Samsung launches new foldable phones, most people who read sites like Android Authority are only really interested in the Fold model — the ultra-expensive one that opens like a book. However, the foldable that sells the most is the Flip model — the smaller, cheaper design that opens like a clamshell. This year is no different, as the eyes of the internet seem to be exclusively on the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which got its first significant design refresh in years and is positioned to be competitive

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.
