No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Hello Shaktiman, Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Galaxy Z Fold7. It is designed to offer a large, immersive display, multitasking capabilities, and strong performance throughout the day to support your needs from morning to night. With a higher battery capacity and smart charging technology, you can do more without worrying about battery life. Stay productive and entertained with a 4,400mAh (typical) dual battery featuring Super-Fast Charging, Fast Wireless Charging 2.0, and Wireless Power Share. Battery performance shows how features, apps, and screen usage interact during initial use, especially on a powerful foldable device. Your experiences help demonstrate how daily performance expectations shape the overall impression of the Fold series. Thank you for choosing Samsung. -Ty

Just got the phone 2 days ago. I traded my z fold 6 but after 2 days of use, the internal display has 2 horizontal lines and display is broken. I liked it but will return and keep my 6 in which I think is more durable. I never dropped the phone
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Not worth the price

This phone is a real kick in the shens honestly. I was so looking forward to this phone, but Samsung has really dropped the ball here.
The battery life is extremely poor compared to most other upper tier phones. I have an S24 Ultra, and I can go 2 full days with that phone with light - moderate use before I really need to start looking for a charger. This fold 7 can't even go one full day.
The lack of spen support is a MAJOR set back. I pre-ordered this phone assuming it was going to have an spen like the Fold 6. Knowing that I'd have to settle for it being in the case rather than conveniently stored in the phone like the Ultra. But to find out after getting the phone that they removed spen support.... seriously what where you thinking Samsung? Such an absolutely terrible move. Especially with the cost of this device, and you are removing features? I don't care if the phone needed to be a little thicker. Making the "thinnest foldable" just to say you have the thinnest foldable without taking into account the feature set is just absurd.
Speaking of the thinness, it is in fact too thin. I don't even have that big of hands but it is so thin that it is difficult to hold in a way that you are not touching the screen or feeling like you are going to drop it easily.
The power button is a pain to press at times. For whatever reason they decided to make it almost flush with the side of the phone rather than protruding a bit like the volume buttons. Making it weird to press a lot of times.
The aspect ratio on the internal screen is pretty meh as well. About the only content that really takes advantage of an almost square screen is reading. Videos are going to have huge black bars in whatever orientation you are in. And the result is often actually a smaller video than what I had full screen on my S24 Ultra.
The speakers are also a huge step down from the S24 Ultra. The volume is fine, but the quality is pretty terrible. Anything above 50% volume sounds like a mess.
The camera is yet another area that is a downgrade. Even though this Fold 7 is supposed to have a 200 Megapixel camera, the quality is worse. It also has the zoom limited to 30x.
All in all, this phone is a definite downgrade from the S24 Ultra, much less an S25. Yet it costs over 50% more that the S24 / S25. That is crazy. I love the idea of a foldable phone to be able to have the bigger screen when consuming content that makes use of it. But sadly Samsung is going in the wrong direction in almost every category. All so that they could make something thinner.
No, I would not recommend this to a friend.

Thank you for sharing your thoughts on the Galaxy Z Fold7, Steven. We appreciate your passion for our foldable devices and noted your concerns about battery life and S Pen support. The Z Fold7 was designed to be thinner and more compact, and your feedback on features will help shape future models. Your insights regarding the power button design and overall usability are valuable to us. We aimed for a sleek device while still keeping its functionality. The display aspect ratio was carefully made so that when folded, the Galaxy Z Fold 7's cover screen features a 21:9 aspect ratio, which is similar to that of premium bar-type smartphones. This improved aspect ratio allows for a more natural typing experience. We're committed to excellence in audio and camera quality, and your feedback is invaluable. Thank you again for your review. If you have any further questions or concerns, please be sure to reach out to us at Samsung Support. -Kelvin 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
