Android Central on MSNGalaxy Z Fold 7 store display units already showing inconsistencies with new hingeSome people on Reddit have been reporting issues with a few Galaxy Z Fold 7 store display units, especially with the hinge.
The Z Fold 7 is overall slightly taller and wider than its predecessor, which results in bigger screens. The new foldable has a 6.5-inch AMOLED Full HD Plus (2,520x1,080 pixels) cover display, up from the 6.3-inch AMOLED Full HD Plus (2,376x968 pixels) cover display on the Z Fold 6. Both models have 1 to 120Hz variable refresh rates.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 has come to replace the Galaxy Z Fold 6, and design-wise, the difference is obvious. But what about the cameras? The new Fold 7 ups the main camera from 50MP to 200MP, and the inner camera gets a boost from 4MP to 10MP.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 seems to be thinner than the HONOR Magic V5, at least based on these two experiments.
In the wake of several years where Samsung had decidedly changed very little in the way of device thickness, the company has officially reached a halfway point. The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is half the size of the original Galaxy Fold, and that’s something to celebrate.

In comparison, past Google Foldables are rather chunky beasts. The Pixel 9 Pro Fold isn't quite as bad as the original Pixel Fold, and its 5.1mm unfolded thickness means it's actually thinner than the Z Fold 6. But it's still thicker and heavier than the 4.6mm/7.5 ounce Galaxy Z Fold 7.
Samsung has made significant upgrades to its foldables rather than incremental changes like it did last year with the Galaxy Z Fold 6. The newly announced Galaxy Z Fold 7 is a big step forward from its predecessor and easily one of the best book-style foldable phones you can buy right now.
