The most advanced Galaxy Z series yet, seamlessly blending precision and powerful intelligence to elevate everyday interactions – all in its thinnest and lightest design to date
SYDNEY, July 9, 2025 /PRNewswire/ — Samsung Electronics Co., Ltd. today announced the Galaxy Z Fold7, a device that brings together the best of Galaxy design, camera functionality and AI[1] innovation in the thinnest and lightest Galaxy Z Fold series to date. It delivers the premium performance and experience of an ultra smartphone, while unlocking new levels of efficiency and productivity with a larger[2], more immersive display when unfolded. And with the new One UI 8 as its foundation, it seamlessly integrates intelligent, multimodal agents optimised for the foldable form factor.
“The Galaxy Z Fold7 combines Galaxy AI with powerful hardware to deliver our most advanced smartphone experience yet,” said TM Roh, President and Acting Head of the Device eXperience (DX) Division at Samsung Electronics. “This next chapter of foldables brings together design and engineering, with AI built specifically for the foldable form. It gives people the ultra experience they want— powerful, immersive, intelligent, and portable all in one.”
Ultra Sleek, Ultra Powerful
Thinnest, Lightest Galaxy Z Fold
Galaxy Z Fold7 is crafted for those who want the everyday portability and intuitive feel of a traditional smartphone, combined with the enhanced power and flexibility of a larger, unfolded display – all in one device. With its ultra thin and light design and wider cover display, Galaxy Z Fold7 delivers a seamless on-the-go experience that makes typing and browsing effortless when it is folded.
- At just 215 grams[3], Galaxy Z Fold7 is even lighter than Galaxy S25 Ultra.
- It is just 8.9 mm thick when folded and 4.2 mm thick when unfolded[4].
- The device comes with 6.5-inch[5] Dynamic AMOLED 2x cover display, a wider screen[6] with the new aspect ratio.
Most Expansive Screen on a Galaxy Z series Smartphone
When unfolded, Galaxy Z Fold7 becomes more than just a smartphone. It transforms into another device entirely, revealing an expansive screen that expands the workspace for editing, multitasking and immersive viewing – and for getting more out of Galaxy AI[7]. The main display on Galaxy Z Fold7 is approximately 11% larger than the previous generation, providing even more screen real estate for content editing and multitasking across multiple apps.
- 8-inch[8] Dynamic AMOLED 2x main display offers ultra-rich contrast, true blacks and vibrant detail that make everything pop — from movies to tabs open whilst multitasking.
- With Vision Booster and up to 2,600 nits of peak brightness, Galaxy Z Fold7 stays brilliantly visible even in direct sunlight.
Looks Sleek, Built Strong
Thin and light, Galaxy Z Fold7 is built to move with users. From repeated folding to being tossed in a bag, it’s engineered for everyday and built to perform, with a structured hinge and foldable display.
- The FlexHinge has an enhanced multi-rail structure design that creates a smoother fold.
- The cover display is made with Corning® Gorilla® Glass Ceramic 2[9], a strong glass ceramic to increase protection. Armour Aluminium[10] in the frame provides a strong exterior.
- The main display is restructured to be thinner and lighter, prioritising portability and compactibility.
The Most Powerful Processor Customised for Galaxy
Under the hood, Galaxy Z Fold7 is powered by the best-in-class processor used in Galaxy devices. It’s uniquely customised and makes on device AI processing tasks like real-time language translation and Generative Edits – faster and more seamless.
- The Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy[11] delivers a performance boost of 41% in NPU, 38% in CPU, and 26% of GPU[12] compared to the previous generation. This power fuels the Galaxy Z Fold7’s ability to process more AI experiences on-device.
Ultra 200MP Camera
Ultra Detailed, Ultra Clear Photos[13]
Galaxy Z Fold7 now brings the best of the Galaxy’s pro-grade camera experience to a foldable, combining advanced hardware with intelligent processing for consistently stunning results. Its high-resolution camera captures incredible detail, vibrant colour and rich texture, pulling you back into every moment. AI-enhanced imaging automatically optimises lighting, detail and realism, so photos and videos stay sharp and vivid, even in low light settings such as milestone dinners and late-night café scenes.
- Featuring the first 200MP wide-angle camera in the Galaxy Z series, it captures 4x more detail.
- The 10MP 100° camera on the main display expands the frame, so when users unfold their phone, it’s easy to capture group selfies, valuable moments and more of the world in a single shot.
- Samsung’s next generation ProVisual Engine processes images faster, enabling every photo and video to be more crisp, vibrant and full of detail.
- With Night Video, motion detection now separates moving subjects from still backgrounds to reduce noises.
- 10-bit HDR provides more colour depth. The result is videos with richer colour, deeper contrast and more lifelike detail, no matter the time of day.
Creative Editing with Big Screen
Galaxy Z Fold7 puts a pro-grade creative studio in users’ pocket, with AI-powered tools optimised for its large display. Users can capture stunning photos and videos and then edit with ease. From cleaning up clutter in product shots to removing background noise from café recordings, studio-quality enhancements can be done in a few easy steps. The intuitive and intelligent features on the Galaxy Z Fold7 make it effortless to transform photos and videos into pro-level content, with no extra tools required.
- Shots look flawless with Photo Assist[14], which moves, erases or enlarges objects and adjusts angles, and fills in backgrounds with AI-powered precision. Users can seize vibrant expressions, including pet profiles with Portrait Studio[15] and refining their photos using Galaxy’s enhanced Generative Edit. The ability to seamlessly remove distractions and fill in backgrounds has made Generative Edit a fan favourite, and now it’s even smarter. It offers proactive suggestions with the new Suggest Erases which automatically detects a passersby with the tap of a button.
- Side-by-Side Editing and Show Original enables real-time comparison of original images and edited versions on the large screen, making it easier to decide what to modify and what to keep.
- Audio Eraser[16] has also been upgraded to be more intelligent and convenient. There’s a new toggle in Gallery and it now proactively detects and removes unwanted background noise like wind or traffic from video recordings.
Ultra AI Experience
The Next Era of Galaxy AI[17] on the Large Screen
Galaxy Z Fold7 harnesses the power of the foldable display to amplify the power and convenience of AI, delivering experiences that are instinctive, adaptive and effortlessly efficient. The new One UI 8 that is context-aware and naturally responsive is optimised for Galaxy Z Fold7’s flexible format and expansive screen, offering a more intuitive and immersive way to interact with AI. There’s less jumping between apps and screens and more frictionless creativity and productivity happening seamlessly in one place.
- Designed as a true multimodal agent, One UI 8[18] seamlessly combines large-screen multitasking with intelligent tools that understand what users type, say and even see. And with an AI-powered camera and privacy built into every layer, Galaxy Z Fold7 becomes a smart and secure personal assistant, ready to help anytime, anywhere.
- Launching with the all-new One UI 8 on Android 16, Galaxy Z Fold7 debuts Samsung’s latest AI-powered platform on foldables, delivering the latest Android experience straight out of the box.
- Gemini Live[19] is now enhanced with multimodal AI that understands what users see, say and do, making it possible to seamlessly type or speak contextual questions and get answers without having to toggle back and forth between apps. And with screen sharing on Gemini Live or camera sharing on Gemini Live, you can simply show Gemini what users are looking at on the screen or on the camera, then ask questions to get instant insights.
- With Circle to Search[20], gaming tips appear exactly when and where you need them. Just circle an item on screen and get instant results, tips or tactics in a floating view that ensures a smooth, uninterrupted experience.
- With Galaxy AI Optimised for Large Screens, Galaxy Z Fold7 delivers experiences that maximise the benefits of the expansive foldable display to boost productivity. AI Results View displays results from AI features in a separate Split View or in a Floating View, so the user’s original content remains unobstructed and visible. You can be more efficient with Drag & Drop AI-generated content, including images and text, directly from Multi Window. With tools like Drawing Assist[21] or Writing Assist[22], it’s easier than ever to move ideas and visuals, enabling a smoother creative process.
Future-Ready Mobile Security
As mobile experiences grow ever more intelligent and interconnected, Samsung is reinforcing the foundations that protect them. With One UI 8, Samsung is advancing Knox Matrix to deliver more proactive and user-friendly protection across the Galaxy ecosystem.
One UI 8 brings the Knox Enhanced Encrypted Protection (KEEP[23]). KEEP creates encrypted, app-specific storage environments within the device’s secure memory area, ensuring each app can access only its own sensitive information and nothing more.
