We are reporting live from the big Galaxy Unpacked event that opened a new chapter in Samsung’s foldable smartphone design. We even got the opportunity to test out the new cameras.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 upgrades to an “Ultra 200MP camera” as its main – this uses the large 1/1.3” ISOCELL HP2 sensor. It’s joined by a 10MP 3x telephoto and a 12MP ultra-wide cameras. By the way, the ultra-wide lens now has autofocus, which allows it to shoot macro images. The under-display selfie camera inside is gone, replaced by a more standard 10MP punch hole camera with a wide 100° lens. The selfie camera on the cover display also has a 10MP sensor but with a narrower 85° lens.

Here are some 2x crop zoom and 3x telephoto camera photos from the Galaxy Z Fold7 as well.

We even took some selfies with the new front-facing camera. The one on the internal screen is wider, as you can see from the photos below.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 sticks to the familiar formula with a 50MP main and 12MP ultra-wide (usable for selfies on the expansive 4.1” cover display) and a 10MP 85° selfie camera inside. New features allow you to enable automatic framing and image adjustments for hands-free operation – the Flip can act as its own tripod.
We snapped some samples with the main camera, including some 2x crop zooms.

One major addition on both the Z Flip7 and Z Fold7 is support for 10-bit HDR videos, which offer richer colors and deeper contrast. For now, regular 4K videos should suffice. We will take a deeper dive in our upcoming full reviews.
