Samsung z fold 7
on August 2, 2025
Posted by: tony1977
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Impressively thin
When I tried the latest Fold 7 today, the first thing that came to mind was how ridiculously thin the device is. While Samsung may throw out various numbers, including a 4.2mm thin design with an 8-inch screen or a 4400mAh battery, you don't realize how slim it is until you compare it with other devices or look at the USB-C port. Although the device is lighter than the previous version by 24 grams, the weight reduction doesn’t make as much difference as the thickness it was able to shave.
When looking from the bottom up, you can see that the USB-C port barely fits into the device; the thickness of the port is almost as much as the device itself, which is quite amazing. The design of the device impresses you from the first moment.
Galaxy AI edits were smooth with no lag, and the auto-select was precise when I tried to remove a person from a photo. I can see myself using this in my daily life, especially when removing photo bombers during vacations.
The device is smooth, likely due to the special variant of the Snapdragon for Galaxy. In my time with the device, there was no lag; the camera and 4K video recording started and stopped without a hiccup, and there was no noticeable change in temperature.
Speaking of the camera, Samsung has been advertising the camera on the latest Fold 7 with the #UltraUnlocked, and there is clearly an improvement in the camera department. The zoom works out I really Love it.

One Step Forward, Two Steps Back
on August 4, 2025
Posted by: SamsungRegular
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I will start with the good: The Zold 7 Brings a thinner build that is surprisingly light and reduces a lot of bulk that previous ZFold models had. Galaxy AI seems to be more responsive and useful than it does on older phones like the S24 Ultra. (Though sometimes it mistakes random words or sentences as a wake word )
The camera is more comparable to that of more flagship devices, which is a gripe i always had with the Z series line. Its getting closer to being up to par.
Now the criticisms: The removal of support for the SPen is probably my biggest gripe with the 7. I feel like it hurts a lot of the functionality that made the ZFolds great for business or Artists like me. That feature was my primary reason for being invested in the Zfolds and the lack of it will be the reason I return the device.
The camera being better is great but because of the thinner build, the bump of the camera results in a horrible wobble thay almost requires you to have a case to set it down properly.
The bigger screen is nice but I think that overall the thinner build resulted in the phone having less features than previous models while asking for a higher price. I would gladly give up the thinner build in a heartbeat just to keep the spen functionality.
The camera should be more comparable to current Gen Plus or Ultra phones for the price tag they ask for. If the price was closer to that of a 25 plus, I would say its a more worthwhile buy.
Maybe the 8 will address these issues.

The Fold phone I have been waiting for!
on August 4, 2025
Posted by: jaroclay
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Finally, a fold phone that feels like two devices in one. The 6.5" cover screen allows for efficient use of all apps especially the keyboard. The larger main screen is fantastic as well. Both have great color depth and clarity. And this phone is thin - when folded it is like a brick phone thickness wise. Awesome!
The integrated Galaxy AI is something I thought I would not use but do. From questions on how to do things to adding events to my calendar, it is a helpful tool to have. For full integration (e.g. Now Brief), you need to use Samsung apps. I hope this will be changed to allow 3rd party apps like Google Calendar.
The main camera was upgraded so the pictures look awesome. AI is integrated with the camera app which i am still learning what all that entails beyond circle search. It appears to adjust the image to adjust the contrast, etc. so your picture looks better.
Gaming, for me, does not involve graphic intensive games. I play mostly tower defense and bulletstorm games and the Z Fold 7 handles them all and they look great. No jittering or shuddering. And the phone does not get hot.
Battery wise, I was hoping for a larger battery but the specs stated that the battery is managed by the AI to be more efficient. I use my Z Fold 7 for both personal and business and find that I get on average a day between charges. Sometimes 1.5 days. Compared to previous fold phones, I feel there is marginal improvement.
Overall, I am very happy and pleased with the Z Fold 7.

Fold 7 is Very Good But with a few disappointments

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Fold 7 is Very Good But with a few disappointments
It is almost perfect but gets 8 of 10 stars. 8 for the excellent thin design, one camera upgrade, and very good battery life though still at 4400mah. Minus 2 stars is because of the downgrade in removining the UDC camera and placing the punch-hole in a bad position interferring with wide-screen video watching, and for not upgrading the zoom, periscope, and telephoto cameras too and not including the anti-glare film on the screens. Happy overall, but still wishing it could be better with those changes.

This is the foldable phone I've been waiting for.
on August 4, 2025
Posted by: Chanman
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I love this phone. Finally outside screen I can use. I don't have to open the phone everytime I have to use the phone. Before, with small narrow screen, I only used it to check the messages. Now on this phone, I can do everything on my outer display and only open when I want to use the big screen. I do miss the pen yes. But I bought pen that I can write with and that's good enough for me. I only used pen to write notes, and I do use it a lot.
