Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 willl be unveiled in early July alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 7, and they may be available for sale later that month, according to a report by the TechManiacs. When folded, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is tipped to be 8.2mm thick, which is considerably thinner than the 12.1mm profile of the Galaxy Z Fold 6.

The purported Galaxy Z Fold 7 will likely arrive with a different aspect ratio than the existing model. It is expected to be less wide (when unfolded) and may sport an 8-inch (diagonal) internal display. It is expected to be EUR 100 (roughly Rs. 9,700) more expensive than the Galaxy Z Fold 6.

Both the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 are tipped to come with Snapdragon 8 Elite chipsets. The Galaxy Z Flip 7 is expected to be thinner than the Galaxy Z Flip 6, but the report did not add any specific dimension details. 

The handset is expected to sport a larger 4-inch cover screen and a 4,300mAh battery, up from the 3.4-inch outer display and the 4,000mAh cell of the preceding model. The price details of the upcoming clamshell foldable are not yet known.

For optics, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is expected to retain the 50-megapixel 50 main rear and 12-megapixel ultrawide cameras. Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 may get a 200-megapixel primary sensor, a 10-megapixel telephoto shooter with 3x optical zoom support and a 50-megapixel ultrawide camera at the back, alongside a 12-megapixel front camera sensor for selfies and video calls.
