Powerful yet Refined
on August 27, 2025
Posted by: SammyBoi
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is not a thing of child's play, this a powerful and mature force that is sure to elevate the power user to the next level. One UI is the most cohesive folding phone experience on the market plus Galaxy AI is a bold foray into a novel domain which will elevate that experience. Samsung really prioritizes their foldable line and it shows in the product and purchasing experience around it. Highly recommended.
Honestly, I absolutely love this phone. The design, thinness, and overall display sizes are amazing. In its folded and unfolded states, the phone feels amazingly thin, yet still sturdy. The hinge feels different, in a good way. It's got a certain snappiness when opening and closing. This is unlike the Fold 6 I used to have which, while still acceptable in general, felt more mushy and didnt "snap" open or closed.
Display brightness is pretty great, however, an anti reflective coating would have been nice. As I type this with an overhead lamp behind me, it glares tremendously. I find myself "tipsy turvy-ing" the phone to see move the light reflection around.
Battery is OK. Not terrible, not great. I use the Light power profile since I'm not a super power user. Mostly some social media shorts and video streaming, so full power usage is not necessary. I'm finding that the Light profile is still plenty fast and I'm not experiencing any weird glitching or slowdown. I got just over 10 hours screen time and 14 hours of standby on a 100% charge going all the way to 0 (doing a battery calibration). Mostly FB and YT, with FB having more than twice the on screen time than YT.
The exclusion of the S-pen honestly doesn't bother me, never used it on the Fold 6 and I never use it on my S23 Ultra, so its a non-issue.
I traded in my Fold6 for a major discount during pre-order, so the price became super enticing. I loved my Fold6, but made the mistake of going to a store and checking it out in person. It was game over after that.
About a month later, I am still smitten and absolutely love this phone. At home, I strip the case and play with it naked. The Fold7, I mean...
Unless they do something radical with the Fold9 or 10, I likely won't upgrade for a while. I'm also concerned about the fact that the subsequent successors won't be as thin, according to some rumors. I love this thinness.
Have had folding phones before but this Z Fold 7 is the cat's meow! I had traded my 25 Ultra for this phone and am extremely happy with the Fold 7. Absolutely love viewing photos when phone is unfolded and it's really not hard to open. This comes from a 70+ year old. 😀
I would recommend this to a friend!

Best Fold Yet
on July 25, 2025
Posted by: FoldAndACat
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Pros:
Very thin Feels very solid Screens are great Performance is great Galaxy AI features still among the better implementations Battery life is ok considering the size, although I’m using it intensively at the moment, will probably be better day-to-day.
Cons: No Qi2 in 2025 Wish there was still Spen support because this feels like the best iteration for it and I find myself wanting to write on this screen.

The Foldable Flagship Reaches Maturity
on July 26, 2025
Posted by: Ghaks99
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I recently purchased the Galaxy Z Fold 7, and after spending some time with it, I can confidently say it’s one of the most refined foldables to date. Samsung has truly elevated both hardware and software — especially with the integration of Galaxy AI.
Galaxy AI: Smarter and More Useful Than Ever
The Gemini-powered screen analysis feature is incredibly helpful. Whether I'm reading documents, browsing websites, or viewing images, it can understand and summarize content or answer contextual questions instantly.
The object eraser tool in photos is seamless — it removes unwanted elements naturally without leaving visible traces. I no longer need third-party editing apps.
Voice recording to text with automatic summarization is another highlight. It’s perfect for meetings, interviews, or lectures, saving me hours of transcription and note-taking.
Cover Display Feels Like a Regular Smartphone
Unlike previous Fold models, the outer screen on the Z Fold 7 feels balanced and fully usable. It’s responsive, comfortable to use with one hand, and works just as well for everyday tasks like messaging, web browsing, and navigation — no compromise.
🎬 Unmatched Viewing Experience on the Main Display
Once unfolded, the large inner display shines. Watching videos, streaming content, or playing games feels immersive and cinematic. It’s also perfect for multitasking, allowing up to three apps at once with ease — ideal for productivity and entertainment.
