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.

In an all-too common (and annoying) tactic these days, Samsung has been drip teasing its "Ultra-experience" for more than a month prior to Unpacked, despite the lack of anything named "Ultra" besides a new blue version of the Watch that bears the name. We've seen teasing views of the new Galaxy Z Fold 7, the Z Flip 7 and 7 FE and the Watch 8 (and the Watch 8 Classic), which are now officially official. All the devices debut One UI 8, Samsung's skin and apps for Android 16, which brings a new lo

Epic Games Settles With Samsung. That's a Big Deal for Fortnite Players and Gamers More Broadly

Epic Games says it's reached a settlement with Samsung after suing both Samsung and Google last year over antitrust issues. The action is likely a turning point for players of Fortnite and other games. Epic didn't disclose the terms of the settlement, but the original suit focused on Samsung blocking the installation of apps on its mobile devices, making it more difficult for users to install Epic Games titles, such as the popular Fortnite. At the time, Epic said it took 21 steps to install a g

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.

Galaxy Z Fold 7 vs Pixel 9 Pro Fold: There’s a clear winner for me

androidauthority.com Unknown 2025-08-05 16:00:36

Last year, the Google Pixel 9 Pro Fold raised the bar significantly over its predecessor, while also giving the Samsung Galaxy Fold 6 a run for its money. Of course, the market never stands still for long. The new Samsung Galaxy Fold 7 is now here, but how does it compare to its Tensor-powered rival? For me, the choice is clear. Although the Pixel 9 Pro Fold was a close rival to the Galaxy Fold 6, Samsung’s latest model brings enough improvements to widen the gap. Below, I’ll dive into why I re

Are two Samsung Galaxy Z Flip phones better than one? That's the question I kept pondering as I held the new Galaxy Z Flip 7 in one hand and the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE in the other at a Samsung press preview. It's a strategy that's worked well for one of the company's foldable phone competitors, Motorola, which has Razr models starting as low as $700 and as much as $1,300.

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
