TL;DR Samsung has launched the Galaxy Z Flip 7 starting at $1,099.
The phone debuts with One UI 8 based on Android 16 and features an Exynos processor worldwide.
Samsung has refined the phone’s dimensions, made the cover display way more usable, added smarter software features, boosted battery life, and embraced more sustainable materials.
Galaxy Z Flip 7 pre-orders are now open, with general sales starting on July 25.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is here, and it’s better than ever. The clamshell arrives with the biggest “Flex Window” (cover display) ever seen in the lineup, along with a larger main screen. Beyond just more display space, Samsung has refined the phone’s dimensions, added smarter software features, boosted battery life, and embraced more sustainable materials. One of the biggest shifts this year is Samsung’s decision to go all-in on its homegrown Exynos chip, even in the US market. Yes, there’s no Qualcomm Snapdragon on the Flip 7 anywhere in the world. While the move will certainly raise some eyebrows, the new Exynos 2500 means business, and so does Samsung with its seventh clamshell phone. Here’s what’s on offer.

If you need more space, there’s also a 512GB version available. Sadly, unlike the Galaxy Z Fold 7, the Flip 7 doesn’t offer a 1TB storage option.
