Samsung just dropped the Galaxy Z Fold7, and it’s the biggest upgrade to their foldable lineup in years. After playing catch-up with Chinese brands, Samsung’s finally striking back with a device that’s thinner, lighter, and more capable than ever. This article will discuss everything about the latest Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7, including its price in Nepal, specifications, and availability.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 Overview
Design and Build Quality
The Z Fold7 appears to be a complete game-changer when it comes to design. At just 8.9mm thick when folded and 4.2mm when unfolded, it’s finally competitive with Chinese foldables like the Honor Magic V5. If you’ve held a Z Fold6, this should feel like a completely different phone.
At 215 grams, it’s actually lighter than Samsung’s own Galaxy S25 Ultra and 24 grams lighter than last year’s model. The new Armor FlexHinge uses a water droplet design with a multi-rail structure that reduces creasing while boosting durability. Samsung also went with Advanced Armor Aluminum, that’s 10% stronger and harder than before.
The cover display now rocks Corning Gorilla Glass Ceramic 2 with crystals embedded in the glass matrix for better crack resistance. The main display gets 50% thicker Ultra-Thin Glass (UTG) with a titanium plate. Meanwhile, you’re still getting IP48 water and dust resistance.
Display
The main display is now 8.0 inches — that’s 11% larger than the previous generation. Both the main and cover displays are Dynamic AMOLED 2X with 1-120Hz adaptive refresh rate and up to 2,600 nits peak brightness.
The cover screen is also 6.5 inches with a new 21:9 aspect ratio. Samsung finally ditched the problematic under-display camera and went with a traditional 10MP punch-hole on the main screen. One thing more to note is the fact that S Pen support is now gone. Samsung says removing the stylus support layer helped achieve the thinner profile.
Camera System Revolution
You’re getting a 200MP main camera, the same ISOCELL HP2 sensor from the Galaxy S25 Ultra. It captures 4x more detail and produces images that are 44% brighter than the previous generation.
The camera setup includes a 12MP ultra-wide with a 120° field of view and a 10MP telephoto with 3x optical zoom. Samsung’s new ProVisual Engine processes images faster, and Night Video now uses intelligent motion detection to separate moving subjects from still backgrounds. For selfies, there’s a 10MP camera on the cover screen and another 10MP sensor on the main display with a 100° field of view.
Performance and Software
Performance is handled by the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy, which Samsung says delivers 41% better NPU performance, 38% better CPU performance, and 26% better GPU performance compared to the previous generation. You can configure it with 12GB or 16GB of RAM and up to 1TB storage.
The software experience is where Samsung’s really pushing boundaries. One UI 8 based on Android 16 comes with enhanced Galaxy AI features optimized for the large screen. AI Results View displays AI-generated content in Split View or Floating View, and you can drag and drop AI-generated content between apps.
Gemini Live gets multimodal AI that understands what you see, say, and do. Plus, Circle to Search now shows gaming tips exactly when you need them. Samsung’s promising 7 years of Android updates and security patches.
Creative Tools and AI Features
The Z Fold7 packs some serious creative firepower. Photo Assist can move, erase, or enlarge objects with AI precision. Generative Edit gets smarter with “Suggest Erases” that automatically detects passersby with a tap.
Audio Eraser has been upgraded to intelligently remove background noise like wind or traffic from videos. Side-by-Side Editing lets you compare original and edited images in real-time on the large screen.
Drawing Assist and Writing Assist make creative workflows smoother, and Portrait Studio can enhance pet and people photography. Honestly, it’s like having a pro-grade creative studio in your pocket.
