Samsung launched the Galaxy S25 series bringing an end to the rumors, which are now available for pre-order and will be available for sale starting February 7th. The next foldables have already entered the rumor mill though. In the latest news, GalaxyClub shares the camera specifications of the Galaxy Z Flip 7.
According to the report, the camera specifications are quite disappointing. As for the hardware, the Z Flip 7 uses a 50MP main camera, paired with a 12MP ultrawide and a 10MP front camera. For those who don’t recall, the numbers are the same as that of the Z Flip 6. Although the report didn’t reveal the sensor size, so we cannot confirm if these (or at least the main and ultrawide) are upgraded sensors with the same resolution. It’s also unlikely that Samsung will add a telephoto or an under-display camera, notes GalaxyClub.
Similar or same cameras with AI-enhanced image processing
Reportedly, Samsung is focusing on software-based camera enhancements for the foldables—the same approach the company took with the S25 series.
To give you an idea of what to expect, Galaxy S25 Ultra’s imaging performance is only slightly different than its predecessor. And the reason I am saying ‘different’ is that it’s not particularly better in every scenario. While the skin tones appear to be more accurate, the images often appear as darker than last year’s model.

Of course, these are minor issues and shouldn’t be too difficult for Samsung to fix. But then again, the company has been using the camera hardware (both for the S and Z series flagships) for quite a while, and therefore, they have had plenty of time to optimize their image processing system for the sensors. Sure Samsung introduced some new terms this year such as the improved ProVisual Engine, which will also be a part of the next foldables.
The company will most likely focus on AI-powered camera features such as “Best Face” to compensate for sensor upgrades. We have already started seeing real-world comparisons, and it will be interesting to see how Samsung’s AI-backed approach stacks up against competitors that still allocate resources to hardware upgrades.
Unlike the S25 series, the Z Flip 7 will be powered by the company’s in-house Exynos 2500 chip. You can check out more details about the chipset here.
