Samsung’s budget-friendly foldable might not look so different after all. Reliable tipster OnLeaks, in collaboration with SammyGuru, has shared high-quality renders of what’s expected to be the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, Samsung’s first attempt at an FE (Fan Edition) model in its flip phone lineup.
And at first glance, the Flip 7 FE appears almost identical to the current Galaxy Z Flip 6, both inside and out. The familiar clamshell design is intact, and the rumored specs suggest little has changed. The device is said to feature a 3.4-inch cover display alongside a 6.7-inch inner foldable screen—the same as the Flip 6.
However, the FE model could be slightly bulkier. It’s reportedly 7.4mm thick when unfolded, compared to 6.9mm on the Flip 6. That said, the overall footprint seems largely unchanged.
Interestingly, while the FE model sticks to the older design, the regular Galaxy Z Flip 7 is expected to bring a more noticeable upgrade. According to reports, it will feature a larger 4-inch cover screen and drop the folder-shaped outer display design that’s become a staple of Samsung’s clamshell foldables.
What to expect
The leaked renders offer a good look at the design, but the hardware inside might be just as familiar. The Z Flip 7 FE is tipped to run on an Exynos 2400e processor, a toned-down version of Samsung’s flagship Exynos 2400 chip. On the software side, it will ship with One UI 7 based on Android 15.
For cameras, the phone is rumored to carry a 50MP primary sensor and a 12MP ultrawide lens. It will also likely feature an Armor Aluminum frame, Corning Gorilla Glass Victus protection, and some sort of water resistance rating.
Samsung is also expected to offer a long-term update policy for the Flip 7 FE. The company could commit to six years of Android and security updates, or even seven, in line with its regular foldables. Other expected features include Wi-Fi 6E support and 25W wired charging.
