After 24 hours with Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip 7, a big thing is that

Galaxy Z Flip Lineup has been the most popular among Samsung’s foldable devices, and its appeal is clear-can not benefit from a device with all functionalities of a regular smartphone that can also be shaped-shift in a small phone for everyday ease?

Also: My first 24 hours with Galaxy Z Fold 7 made me fully enchanted

With its latest addition to the lineup, Galaxy Z Flip 7The Samsung bowed to the most attractive feature of the phone, making it even more portable with a slimmer design, while at the same time power users and everyday users are more capable than the intention of improving user experience.

However, at $ 1,099, Z Flip 7 is still in the high price range of the phone. To determine if it is worth investing your money, I spent 24 hours with the phone. Let’s dive into the right.

Much awaited flaxwindo refresh

At a glance, the most visible change is flaxwindo (external screen). The screen is now big, extending from one corner of the phone to another, barely visible with bezels – a big upgrade from its predecessor, as seen in the picture above. Not only is it the most aesthetic to see, the moto rajra 60 is found in the form of Ultra, but it is also more practical.

4.1-Inch Flexwindo is also bright, with a peak shine of 2,600 notes and a smooth 120Hz refresh rate. It also has a visionboster, a feature that increases external visibility, making it the highest and highest-functional flaxwindo yet. When using Z Flip 7 in a park on Sunny NYC day, I was able to see the screen without a problem.

Also: I changed 10 Samsung phone settings to improve user experience.

So, why does it make a win? To get more than only apathy from chlamshell design, you need to be able to use the external screen for basic functions, and the larger screen makes it more possible.

I used myself to use it to use it such as taking photos, looking at information, and even more information with previous models, likely, on older models, limited screen sizes were not really seductive to me to move away from opening the phone. I also found that it was a great vehicle to reach the latest AI facilities-which takes me to the next part.

Easy AI Access

If you care about AI on your mobile device, this cover screen makes it easy to get immediate help without opening your phone. Mithun Live is now accessible on the cover screen, whether it is through a long press of side button or through the app. This can quickly answer questions for you or access the apps that take action for you, such as making notes or adding a calendar event.

If you often use multimodal AI aid, as I do, you will be happy to know that you can now share the camera with your flaxwindo – which means that you prophen your phone and use camera to get multimodal gemini aid from Mithun Live. Now, instead of proposing my iPhone 16 Pro, who is my daily driver, to take full advantage of multimodal aid on a water bottle or other items, I am able to just open the phone and set to the nearest surface to ask a question.

You can also use a personal now bar and now a feature limited to the first, Galaxy S25 Ultra from the cover screen. This makes it easier to achieve a quick timber of personal insight, such as the weather, summary of the event, summary and news. Beyond these, a UI 8 brings other assistant AI features such as better photos and audio editing.

Additionally, the purchase of Galaxy Z fold 7 and Flip 7 will also come up with six months of Google AI Pro, which retails for $ 19.99 a month. The scheme gives you access to some of Google’s most advanced AI Prasad, including Google’s most capable model, Gemini 2.5 Pro; Flow, Google’s AI film production tool is made with VO3 Fast, which makes hyper-e-artistic videos; More. So if you are older in AI or want to try it, it becomes easier to dive Z Flip 7 in advanced features.

More power in a slimmer package

Flip 7 is slim, coming at 13.7 mm thick compared to the previous year’s 14.9 mm. This makes it more comfortable to slip into your pocket, reduces the uncomfortable feeling of having two small phones over each other.

Even though it is a slimmer, Samsung did not compromise on major components, including a 6.9 -inch internal performance compared to a 6.7 -inch screen on the Galaxy Z Flip 6, and a large 4,300mAh battery (above 4,000mAh) that can handle the video playback for time for 31 hours, according to Samsung.

One day of continuous use is not almost enough time to judge the performance of the battery, so I will provide an update in my complete review. However, I have not seen any signs of decline in unusual batteries, and the battery has lasted to me for a whole day without any issue.

Instead of the expected Snapdragon 8 Elite, Z Flip 7 is operated by Exinos 2500, the first 3Nm in-house processor, which was released just two weeks ago. The difference of performance between the two chipsets should not be noticeable, enables new experiences other than the in-house processor such as DEX support on Z flip, allows users to plug their phone into a monitor and use it like a desktop computer.

It is the same camera specs as last year, with a 50mp wide-angle and 12MP ultravide sensor. In last year’s Z Flip 6, this camera system was a major boost from Z Flip 5, and ZDNET found that when it did not offer a flagship-tier performance, it was still a competent system, which was well excellent in a state of light and produced vibrant, wide photos.

Samsung has also claimed that the image has been upgraded to processing, which includes enhanced nightography and 10-bit HDR for more detailed videos, upgrading and separating the quality of the camera from the preceding model. Below are some pictures that I have taken in different light situations and settings.
