Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 — the purported successor to last year's Galaxy Z Fold 6 model — is expected to arrive in the coming months, and details of the smartphone have leaked online again. The book-style foldable could also arrive with Android 16 out-of-the-box, with Samsung's One UI 8 skin on top.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 Specifications (Expected)

Details of the purported Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 were leaked by X (formerly Twitter) user Anthony (@TheGalox_), who claims that the handset will be equipped with a new 200-megapixel primary camera. The company's current Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 model features a 50-megapixel camera. It is also said to feature an upgraded under display camera.

Samsung could equip the Galaxy Z Fold 7 with an 8-inch inner screen a 6.5-inch cover display, up from the 7.6-inch and 6.3-inch panels used on the Galaxy Z Fold 6. The upcoming smartphone will sport a more durable display with "new layers" and a smaller crease on the inner screen, according to the tipster.

When unfolded, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is said to be 4.5mm thick, which means it might be nearly 1.1mm thinner than its predecessor. The leaker also claims that the handset will offer improved dust and water resistance (the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 has an IP48 rating).

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 will be powered by the same Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy chip from Qualcomm that arrived on the Galaxy S25 series of smartphones, along with a larger vapour chamber for better thermal management. The handset is also said to be equipped with upgraded speakers and a new vibration motor.

Thanks to Google's plan to release Android 16 by Q2 2025, eligible Google Pixel smartphones are expected to get the update by June. With the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 expected to launch in July, the tipster claims that the handset will arrive with One UI 8, which is based on Android 16.
