This is the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 FE. It’s on sale (ours shipped a few days earlier than the projected July 25th date), starting from €999, and you have a choice of Black and White.
The Flip7 FE is nearly identical to the Galaxy Z Flip6, only it runs an in-house 4nm Exynos 2400 with 8GB of RAM. The older Flip6 packs a Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 with 12GB of RAM. We’ll run our own tests, but the Snapdragon will likely be a bit faster than the new Exynos.
On the surface, the Flip7 FE doesn’t seem like much of an upgrade, especially considering that you can find the Galaxy Z Flip6 with twice the base storage (256GB) of the Flip7 FE, for less.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 and Z Flip7 FE
You get a USB-C cable with the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE.
Having identical hardware to last year’s Galaxy Z Flip6, the Flip7 FE has an outdated cover screen (especially compared to the Flip7). It’s only 60Hz and it doesn’t stretch to the entire available panel.
On the surface at least, the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE doesn’t look like a very compelling proposition. If you look over at Motorola’s Razr 60 series, you’ll get a bigger, more functioning cover display, a bigger battery with slightly faster charging for less money.
Still, the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE may not be all bad. We’ll need to do our full review treatment on it to see what’s what so stay tuned!
