Recent reports from the Greek website Techmaniacs suggest that they have acquired substantial information regarding the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7, possibly ahead of its official announcement. This new foldable device is anticipated to bring significant design improvements, particularly in terms of thickness.
According to Techmaniacs, the Galaxy Z Fold7 is expected to measure only 8.2 mm in thickness when closed. If these claims hold true, this would make it slimmer than the current leading foldable device, the Oppo Find N5, by 0.7 mm. This reduction in thickness marks a notable achievement for Samsung, as it would represent a 2.4 mm decrease from the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition and a substantial 3.9 mm reduction compared to the Galaxy Z Fold6, which is currently priced at $1,600 on Amazon.
Furthermore, the reported dimensions of the Galaxy Z Fold7 when opened indicate that it will be around 4 mm on each side. In comparison, the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition have thicknesses of 5.6 mm and 4.9 mm, respectively. This design refinement could enhance user experience, making the device more portable and easier to handle.
It is important to note that the data shared by Techmaniacs contrasts with information from typically reliable sources, which estimate the thickness of the Galaxy Z Fold7 to be approximately 9.5 mm. As the release date approaches, it remains to be seen which set of figures will prove to be accurate.
As Samsung continues to innovate in the foldable smartphone market, the Galaxy Z Fold7 is shaping up to be a game-changer, particularly with its anticipated slimmer profile. Stay tuned for more updates as we get closer to the official launch of this exciting new device.
