Both the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 will reportedly be much thinner than their predecessors. A leaker has now added weight to rumours about key upgrades to the flagship foldables and revealed the alleged final thickness of each device.

Samsung has confirmed that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 will be officially unveiled at the next Galaxy Unpacked event on 9 July 2025. Whilst official promo images and specs-related information have gradually emerged over recent weeks, leaker Setsuna Digital now claims to have revealed the finalised details about the thickness of each device.

According to the leak, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 will have a thickness of 4.2 mm (0.17 in) when unfolded and 8.9 mm (0.35 in) when folded, making it just 0.1 mm thicker than the Honor Magic V5 in its folded state and almost as thin when unfolded. By comparison, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 (approx. $1,500 on Amazon) is more than 3 mm (0.12 in) thicker when closed. Setsuna Digital also supported earlier reports about the phone’s other specs, including its 215 g (7.58 oz) weight, 200 MP main shooter, 10 MP self camera, 8-inch main display, and 6.5-inch cover screen.
 


Meanwhile, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is expected to measure 13.7 mm (0.54 in) thick when folded and 6.5 mm (0.26 in) when unfolded, shaving off 1.2 mm (0.05 in) and 0.4 mm (0.02 in), respectively, compared to its predecessor. Despite the slimmer design, battery capacity is tipped to increase by 7.5% to 4,300 mAh, whilst the device weight is likely to remain largely unchanged at 188 g (6.63 oz).

The leaker also suggests that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will feature a 4.1-inch secondary screen – larger than previously assumed – alongside significantly narrower bezels measuring just 1.25 mm (0.05 in). Similarly, the main display could potentially grow to 6.9 inches and adopt a 21:9 aspect ratio. Both screens are rumoured to support 120 Hz and deliver peak HDR brightness of 2,600 nits.
