FULL STORY
======================================================================Samsung 
has confirmed that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 will be thinner, lighter, and more 
durable than the previous model The company appears to also be saying that 
the same will be true of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 Unsurprisingly, these 
phones are also said to be the company's most advanced foldables 

Were expecting the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 to 
both be unveiled in July, but ahead of that Samsung is already teasing these 
devices, and a new blog post gives us some idea of what to expect from their 
designs. 

A post on Samsung Newsroom specifically states that the newest Galaxy Z 
series is the thinnest, lightest and most advanced foldable yet. 

So in other words the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 will be thinner and lighter 
than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 , and while the article seems focused on the 
Fold, it says Galaxy Z rather than Galaxy Z Fold, suggesting that the Samsung 
Galaxy Z Flip 7 will also probably be thinner and lighter than the Samsung 
Galaxy Z Flip 6 . 

Samsung doesnt get specific about how slim and light, but leaks have 
suggested the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 could be just 3.9mm thick when unfolded 
and either 8.2mm or 8.9mm thick when folded. Thats down from 5.6mm and 12.1mm 
for the Z Fold 6 when unfolded and folded respectively. The Z Fold 6 is also 
239g, so the Galaxy Z Fold 7 should be lighter than that. 

Prior to today we hadnt heard any reports of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 
being slimmer, but for reference the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 is 6.9mm thick 
when unfolded and 14.9mm when folded, and it weighs 187g. The Samsung Galaxy

As well as being slimmer and lighter than their predecessors, Samsungs 
upcoming foldables will also be more advanced and more durable according to 
this post. 

It would be surprising if they werent more advanced, but hearing that theyre 
set to be more durable is reassuring, since foldable phones are inherently 
quite fragile. 

Again, Samsung doesnt get specific about how the durability will be improved, 
but leaks have suggested that both the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and the Galaxy 
Z Flip 7 could have a more durable hinge mechanism, while the former could 
also have better water resistance and a tough titanium backplate . 

We should find out exactly what upgrades Samsung has planned soon, as leaks 
suggest both phones could land on July 10 . You might also like The Samsung
