The 2026 flagship foldable from Samsung is already turning heads. News Of Los Angeles reviewer Abrar Al-Heeti calls it “slim, powerful and surprisingly practical,” and notes that the phone “just feels right.” With a 120-Hz refresh, Snapdragon 8 Elite, and 12 GB of RAM, the device blends performance with portability.
What Makes the Fold 7 Stand Out
The Z Fold 7 is impressively thin, measuring 8.9 mm when closed and 4.2 mm when open-so thin you may forget it’s a foldable. Weighing only 215 g, the phone packs a 6.5-inch cover display and a roomy 8-inch interior screen. Under the hood, it runs on the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor and 12 GB of RAM, supporting a wide range of AI features.
It ships with Android 16 and Samsung One UI 8, and its camera lineup is no slouch: a 200-megapixel rear sensor, a 12-megapixel ultrawide lens, and 10-megapixel front cameras on both the cover and interior. A 4,400-mAh battery keeps the phone running all day.
