Samsung’s next foldable launch is getting closer, and a new leak highlights what’s new in one of the clamshell foldables, the Z Flip7. With the Unpacked event on the horizon, this leak hints at a more practical and polished flip phone experience.
The leak, first reported by AndroidHeadlines, shows off a redesigned outer display on the Z Flip7. Unlike the Z Flip6’s 3.4-inch screen, which was somewhat limited by its placement near the camera module, the Flip7 features a much larger 4-inch square cover screen that extends nearly edge-to-edge. It wraps around the dual cameras with clean cutouts, maximizing usable space for quick interactions. No doubt, it will offer a better user experience while replying to messages or managing notifications.
More evidence of the redesign came from leaked One UI 8 firmware, which hinted at a larger outer display. The idea is clear: make the Z Flip7’s cover screen more useful, so users can do more with the phone folded shut. This not only improves convenience but also reduces reliance on the inner display. This upgrade also refreshes the design, which looked outdated compared to other clamshell phones like the Moto Razr 60 Ultra or the Honor Magic V Flip.
As for the rest of the phone, design changes appear minimal, with Samsung opting to refine rather than reinvent. While the Z Fold7 continues Samsung’s push for slimmer designs and is expected to be one of the thinnest foldables yet, the Z Flip7 is said to retain the same 6.9mm thickness as its predecessor when unfolded.
The Z Flip7 will be powered by either the Snapdragon 8 Elite or Exynos 2500, depending on the region. It’s also said to pack a 4,300mAh battery, up from the previous model’s 4,000mAh unit.
