Galaxy Z Flip 7 fixes the biggest gripe with using Gemini on flip foldables

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-01 12:00:37

TL;DR The Galaxy Z Flip 7 now runs Google Gemini’s Android app natively on the cover screen. This is a step up from Flip 6, which could only support text-based chat with some workarounds. Gemini Live also works directly from the cover screen. The progressive increase in the Galaxy Flip’s cover screen size has also expanded its utility over time. The cover screen on the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 measures 4.1 inches, occupying a larger space than the previous model’s 3.4-inch layout. This means m

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE vs Motorola Razr (2025): I know which one I’d buy

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-02 07:30:33

If there’s one thing I like, it’s a flip phone. If there are two things I like, they’re flip phones and good values. For a long time, only one device checked both boxes, and it was Motorola’s base-level Razr. Now, though, there’s a new competitor in town: Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE. At a glance, it looks like everything that a Samsung fan on a slightly tighter budget might want, yet I can’t see it pulling me away from the Razr that I already like so much. Here’s why in a battle of the Samsung

Samsung drops Snapdragon for the Galaxy Z Flip 7 — here’s why it makes sense

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-02 10:00:53

After months of speculation about the status of Samsung’s custom Exynos chip program, we finally have an answer — it’s alive and kicking inside the new Galaxy Z Flip 7. This includes customers in the US, who had previously only been treated to a modern Exynos chip in the Galaxy S24 FE. However, this choice leaves Samsung with two different chips inside its latest flagship foldable portfolio. The Exynos 2500 is in the Z Flip 7, but Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite powers the Galaxy Z Fold 7. But wh

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 vs. Z Flip 6: I used both models, and there's a clear winner

Kerry Wan/ZDNET Samsung this week introduced its newest foldable phones, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Fold 7. These devices feature updated specifications, resulting in a thinner, lighter, and more powerful design. You might be wondering if these updates justify an upgrade, especially if you own a previous model like the Galaxy Z Flip 6, or if you're considering a flip phone for the first time.

Samsung’s Z Flip Won’t Be Perfect Until It’s as Thin as the Z Fold 7

gizmodo.com Kyle Barr 2025-08-02 10:58:55

Samsung's flip-style foldable phone is so close to perfection. Despite the new look, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is a far-too-similar foldable to the Galaxy Z Flip 6. The new clamshell phone has a larger exterior screen that integrates (with a heavy sigh) Google Gemini, but compared to the Galaxy Z Fold 7, the Z Flip 7 is still thick enough that it will protrude like a bony crag from any user’s thin pockets. I understand why Samsung places so much emphasis on its expensive flagships, but the fact is th

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 still doesn’t fix the worst thing about Samsung’s flip phones

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-02 17:00:17

C. Scott Brown / Android Authority I have a long history with Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip line. Our revisit of the Galaxy Z Flip 3 was my first experience with a modern flip phone, and it instantly hooked me. I started slipping my SIM back into a Galaxy Z Flip anytime I was between review cycles, and the summer Unpacked event became my favorite of the year, Sydney Sweeney cameos and all. And yet, as much as I’ve loved the overall Galaxy Z Flip experience, I’ve always had one issue: The cover scree

Samsung reveals why the Galaxy Z Fold 7 didn’t get a bigger battery

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-02 20:21:16

Hadlee Simons / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has reportedly revealed why the Galaxy Z Flip 7 has a bigger battery while the Galaxy Z Fold 7 has the same capacity. The company said that most Flip users wanted a bigger battery, while the Fold 7 had other priorities. This comes as rivals to the Galaxy Z Fold series offer much bigger batteries and other impressive features.
