The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE (stylized as Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 FE) is a mid-range Android-based foldable smartphone developed and marketed by Samsung Electronics. Based on the Galaxy Z Flip 6,[3] it is the cheaper model of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 with slightly downgraded specifications. It was officially announced on July 9, 2025, at the Galaxy Unpacked event held in Brooklyn, New York City, United States, alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 7, Galaxy Z Fold 7, and the Galaxy Watch 8 series.[4] It also marks the first FE model released under the Galaxy Z series.[4]

Both phones are very similar, but the FE model has minor specification downgrades in multiple areas: inner and outer screens, cameras, processor, memory, battery and connectivity.[3]

Design

[edit]

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE is only available in two color options: Black and White. Similar to the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and its predecessor, it features a matte glass back panel and aluminum frame.[5]

Specifications

Display

[edit]

Main display

[edit]

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE features the same display specifications as the Galaxy Z Flip 6: a 6.7‑inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X main display with a resolution of 2640 × 1080 pixels (21:9 aspect ratio and a pixel density of approximately 397 ppi), variable refresh rate from 1 to 120 Hz, HDR10+ and is protected by Ultra Thin Glass (UTG).[6][7]

Cover screen

[edit]

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE also retains the 3.4‑inch Super AMOLED cover display found in the Galaxy Z Flip 6. The screen is protected by Gorilla Glass Victus 2. It supports basic cover screen features like widgets and camera previews but lacks the expanded app compatibility and AI-driven functions offered by the FlexWindow on the Galaxy Z Flip 7.[8][9]

Performance

[edit]

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE uses the Exynos 2400, a 4 nm deca-core processor. The chipset was first used on the Galaxy S24 and S24+.[10] It is the first Galaxy Z Flip device (alongside the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7) to use an Exynos processor, as opposed to the Qualcomm Snapdragon chipsets used since the first release of the Galaxy Z Flip.[11]

The chipset is configured with one Cortex-X4 core, four Cortex-A720 cores, and five Cortex-A520 cores. It features the Xclipse 940 GPU, developed in collaboration with AMD, supporting hardware-based ray tracing. Unlike the standard model, the FE version uses a more compact thermal system, which may affect sustained performance during extended workloads.

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE only comes with 8 GB of RAM (similar to the Galaxy Z Flip 5), and storage options include 128 GB or 256 GB, all based on UFS 4.0.[12][13]

Battery

[edit]

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE features a slightly smaller 4,000 mAh dual-cell battery. It supports 25W wired charging compatible with USB Power Delivery 3.0 and Qualcomm Quick Charge 2.0, with Samsung stating that up to 50% charge can be achieved in approximately 30 minutes under optimal conditions. It also supports 15W wireless and 4.5W reverse wireless charging.[14][15]

Reverse wireless charging 4.5 W

Camera

[edit]

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE features a dual rear camera system, comprising a 50 MP wide-angle sensor (with optical image stabilization (OIS) and Dual Pixel autofocus) and a 12 MP ultra-wide sensor (offering a 123-degree field of view). Camera features include LED flash, HDR, and panorama.[13]

The front-facing camera is a 10 MP sensor with HDR support and 4K video recording at 30 and 60 fps.[16]

Video recording (front) 4K@30/60fps

FlexCam

[edit]

FlexCam is a shooting mode that enables hands-free photo and video capture by partially folding the device, typically between 75 and 115 degrees. The mode uses the rear cameras with the cover screen acting as a live viewfinder.[17] It is commonly used for scenarios such as group selfies, vlogging, and video calls. While the core functionality is the same on both devices, the user experience may differ depending on cover screen size and app support.[18][19]

Software

[edit]

The Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Z Flip 7 FE ship with Android 16 and One UI 8. Alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 7, it is promised to get up to seven years of operating system and security updates (which is a policy first introduced with the Galaxy S24 series), making it the second Galaxy Z series phone to do so after the Galaxy Z6 series.[20]

Galaxy AI

[edit]

Galaxy AI features, first introduced with the Galaxy S24 lineup, are supported on both models as part of One UI 8. Key tools include Interpreter, Chat Assist, and Generative Edit, among other available features. These features use a combination of on-device and cloud-based processing, depending on the task and language.[23]
