Samsung’s upcoming foldable lineup is starting to take shape, and if leaks are anything to go by, the Galaxy Z Flip7 is set for a pretty exciting upgrade. According to reliable tipster Max Jambor, the next-gen clamshell foldable from Samsung will come with a bigger, full-screen cover display—one of the most talked-about improvements in the foldable space.

Display
The standout upgrade is the external display, which is expected to grow from the current 3.4 inches to around 4 inches. This new design still keeps the general orientation of the cover the same but makes better use of the space. Unlike previous models with smaller widgets and notification areas, this expanded panel is expected to deliver a more immersive and functional user experience.
This isn’t an entirely new concept, though. Brands like Motorola, Xiaomi, Honor, and Infinix have already pushed the envelope with nearly full-screen cover displays. But for Samsung, this would mark a fresh chapter in the design evolution of its Flip series.
Design
Although the Flip7’s overall size and shape may remain similar to the Flip6, the new cover display layout means the design will look more modern and possibly cleaner. From leaked images and early mockups, the new external panel also houses two camera punch holes, indicating a dual-camera setup embedded into the screen itself.
It’s a new move for Samsung, but one that aligns with the trend of making the outer screen more than just a secondary display. Think of it as a compact mini phone on the outside—ready to handle selfies, messages, and even quick app access without opening the device.
Cameras
Speaking of cameras, the Galaxy Z Flip7 is expected to feature a dual-lens setup with a 50MP primary camera and a 12MP ultra-wide sensor. These are big jumps, especially the 50MP sensor, which should bring significantly better photos in low light and offer more detail overall.
Both sensors are likely to be integrated into the punch holes on the larger cover screen, blending function with form. It could make for some serious selfie upgrades too, especially if Samsung tweaks its image processing as it usually does with newer models.
Performance
Under the hood, rumors suggest the Flip7 could be powered by either the upcoming Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 “Elite” or Samsung’s in-house Exynos 2500 chip. This isn’t confirmed yet, but it wouldn’t be surprising to see two versions—Snapdragon for global markets and Exynos for select regions, as Samsung has done in the past.
Either way, both chipsets are expected to be fast, efficient, and well-optimized for foldables. The Flip7 should handle multitasking, gaming, and photography with ease.
Affordable Variant
Alongside the flagship Flip7, Samsung is also working on a more budget-friendly version, which may be named the Galaxy Z Flip FE. While that name isn’t final, the internal model number “B7R” has surfaced, hinting that the development is well underway.
Unlike the Flip7, the Flip FE is expected to retain the current 3.4-inch cover screen shape, possibly to cut costs while still offering the foldable experience to more users. It could be a great entry point for those wanting to try Samsung’s foldables without splurging on the top-tier model.
Here’s a quick summary of what we know so far:
| Feature | Galaxy Z Flip7 | Galaxy Z Flip FE (Rumored) |
|---|---|---|
| Cover Screen Size | ~4.0 inches (larger) | 3.4 inches (same as Flip6) |
