The design of Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 7 has been revealed through unofficial CAD renders, which appear to be strikingly similar to its predecessors, the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Z Flip 5. The leaked images show the Z Flip 7 in a light blue color and suggest that Samsung is sticking to a familiar design language for its next-generation flip phone as well.
Leaked dimensions hint at a wider aspect ratio
According to the leak (via AndroidHeadlines), the Z Flip 7 will feature a 6.8-inch foldable main display and a 3.6-inch cover screen, up from the 6.7-inch and 3.4-inch panels on the Z Flip 6. The leaked dimensions offer more insights into the design: 166.6 x 75.2 x 6.9mm instead of 165.1 x 71.9 x 6.9mm of the Z Flip 6.
So, the upcoming flip is going to be slightly taller and significantly wider than the predecessor while having the same thickness. And if this is true, the phone will pack an inner display with a slightly wider and much more practical aspect ratio—21:9 or 20:9 (like most other bar phones) down from 22:9.
One potential upgrade that the renders may not fully capture is the possibility of a less visible crease on the foldable display. Samsung is rumored to be using a new hinge mechanism in the Z Flip 7 and Z Fold 7, which could make the crease less noticeable and improve the overall user experience.
Samsung is expected to unveil the Galaxy Z Flip 7 this summer alongside the Z Fold 7. The price is rumored to remain unchanged, starting at $1,099, the same as the Z Flip 6. While the design may not bring groundbreaking changes, the Z Flip 7 could still offer subtle refinements that enhance its appeal to foldable phone enthusiasts.
As for the performance, both the book-style and the flip phone are expected to pack the Snapdragon 8 Elite chip. While there’s no word on the battery capacity and the adoption of the high density Si/C battery tech, the more efficient chip should improve the battery life up to some extent over what we have seen with the predecessors. For reference, the Galaxy S25 series offers a decent improvement in battery life over its predecessors despite having the exact same battery capacity.
