I was hoping for a thinner phone with better cameras. The phone IS thinner but the lenses stick out so the case has to be the sane size or it won't lay flat. The zoom camera is still very grainy at low light. I try to video a band in a bar age the quality isn't great.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts about the Galaxy Z Fold7, Gary! We really appreciate your feedback on the phone's design and camera performance. We’re glad to see that you find the phone thinner, but we noticed your concerns about the camera lenses sticking out. This design choice helps accommodate advanced camera technology, but we appreciate your insights about how it can affect how the phone lies flat in certain cases. Regarding the low-light performance with the zoom camera, we suggest trying out our Nightography feature. This feature captures brighter and more detailed photos and videos in low-light settings. To use it, open the Camera app, choose your desired mode (Photo or Video), and tap Capture when you’re ready. The Night icon (the moon) will be enabled automatically, enhancing your videos for a better experience. The ProVisual Engine works by using multi-frame processing and optimized frame rates to ensure your photos and videos come out clear and vibrant, even in those challenging lighting situations at the bar. To learn more about what your Z Fold7 camera is capable of, please be sure to check out the link attached. If you have any more questions or need assistance, please don’t hesitate to reach out to us at Samsung Support. -Kelvin https://www.samsung.com/us/support/answer/ANS10006879/ smsng.us/Samsung-Support smsng.us/Facebook-Messenger smsng.us/X-Messages smsng.us/Samsung-Community smsng.us/Warranty-Info smsng.us/Samsung-Care-Plus
I previously had the Z Fold 5, and skipped the 6 because I didn't see much reason to upgrade. The 7 is nice, I love the thinness and the weight. However, Samsung REALLY missed the mark by keeping the cameras vertical, instead of horizontal like the Pixel. The phone never sits flat on any surface because it constantly rocks back and forth, and putting a magsafe case on this phone makes almost all accessories impossible to line up correctly because they hit the camera bump. I think if they rotated the camera setup 90 degrees to the top of the phone, they would have had MUCH better end result. Here's to hoping they make that change in the Fold 8.
This is my favorite phone of all time...I was concerned about the crease...but no worries...they figured it out. I have never loved an object before...I am pleasantly surprised by this phone... I watch a lot of videos all over the house and I got tired of squinting....I LOVE THIS PHONE...I will never buy another phone again. This is the one.
I would recommend this to a friend!
