Samsung has finally given its folding phones the big upgrades we’ve all been waiting for. At the Galaxy Unpacked 2025 event, the company introduced the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 — and this time, they look and feel like truly next-gen devices.
Galaxy Z Fold 7: Sleek New Form, Powerful Inside
The Galaxy Z Fold 7 ditches the narrow design of its predecessors and embraces a much wider format. When folded, it now features a proper 6.5-inch cover display (2520 x 1080 resolution) — finally making it usable like a regular phone. The inner display stretches out to 8 inches with a punch-hole 10MP selfie camera, leaving behind the under-display sensor from previous models.
At just 8.9mm thick when folded, it’s one of the thinnest foldables yet, even slimmer than last year’s Fold 6. Unfortunately, that slimness comes at a cost: the new Fold no longer supports the S Pen. Samsung dropped the stylus-friendly display layer to make the device thinner — a trade-off many will likely accept.
Despite these changes, the durability remains solid with IP48 water and dust resistance. And the new look? Sleek, premium, and lightweight — everything the Fold series should have been from the start.
Z Fold 7 Key Highlights:
- 8.9mm thin when folded
- 6.5-inch cover screen (2520 x 1080p)
- 8-inch inner screen with punch-hole selfie camera
- IP48 water/dust resistance
- No S Pen support
- Price: $1,999 (~NPR 270,000)
Galaxy Z Flip 7: Full Cover Screen, More Power
The Flip series gets its own major glow-up. The Galaxy Z Flip 7 finally features a full edge-to-edge cover screen, similar to Motorola’s recent Razr lineup. That extra screen space is used smartly for widgets, quick access features, and even navigation buttons — adding function without sacrificing style.
The Flip 7 is slightly slimmer than before and now packs a larger 4,300mAh battery. Samsung also adds DeX support and even allows Gemini AI Assistant access right from the cover screen.
Z Flip 7 Key Highlights:
- Full-size cover screen
- 4,300mAh battery
- Supports Samsung DeX
- Gemini Assistant on cover screen
- IP48 rating
- Price: $1,099 (~NPR 149,000)
Z Flip 7 FE: Budget-Friendly, But Not Quite Cheap
For those looking for something more affordable, Samsung launched the Z Flip 7 FE — a stripped-down version with a simpler cover display and fewer features. It’s priced at $899 (~NPR 121,000) but may feel underwhelming compared to its rivals, especially considering Motorola’s clamshell foldables start as low as $699.
Nepal Launch and Availability?
Samsung’s foldables usually arrive in Nepal shortly after global announcements, and we expect the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 to debut in major showrooms within a few weeks. While pricing in Nepal will include taxes and duties, early adopters can expect to pay a premium for what might be the most refined folding phones to date.
Verdict: A Big Step Forward — At a Cost
The Fold 7 and Flip 7 prove Samsung is finally pushing its foldables in the right direction. With meaningful design changes, smarter features, and lighter builds, these devices feel like the future of smartphones — though that future comes with a hefty price tag.
