Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Unpacked event on July 9 is expected to feature three major foldable phones: the Galaxy Z Fold7, the Galaxy Z Flip7, and a new, more affordable version—the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE.
Thanks to fresh leaks from trusted insider Evan Blass, we now have a much clearer picture of what these devices might look like—and how much they’ll cost.
Galaxy Z Flip7: A Familiar Look with a Modern Twist
The Z Flip7 retains the familiar clamshell form factor but introduces a few important visual changes.
Key Design Highlights:
- Cover Screen Upgrade: The biggest change? A larger 4-inch Super AMOLED outer display—up from the 3.4-inch panel on the Flip6. It now stretches across the entire top half, only interrupted by two camera cutouts and a flash.
- Color Options: So far, three main colors have been spotted—Jet Black, Blue Shadow, and Coral Red. Samsung might offer more exclusive colors through Samsung.com, but those haven’t been revealed yet.
- Chipset: Rumors suggest the Flip7 will be powered by the new Exynos 2500, a chip Samsung just unveiled.
If you like compact phones but want powerful specs and cutting-edge design, this upgrade might be worth a look.
Galaxy Z Flip7 FE: A Budget-Friendly Foldable?
The Flip7 FE (Fan Edition) looks like it’ll bring the same design as the Z Flip6—with a few compromises to keep the cost down.
What to Expect from the FE:
- Display: A 3.4-inch folder-style cover screen (same as the Flip6).
- Design: No major changes, likely using more affordable materials.
- Colors: Basic options—Black and White, nothing flashy here.
- Processor: Also expected to use the Exynos 2500, keeping performance consistent.
If you’ve wanted to try Samsung’s foldable ecosystem but found the price a barrier, the FE might be the entry point you’ve been waiting for.
Leak Alert: Galaxy Z Flip7 and Fold7 Prices May Rise in Europe
While we wait for official confirmation, recent leaks suggest that European customers might be facing higher prices this year.
According to listings spotted on an Italian retailer’s website:
Model | Storage | Expected Price (EUR) |
---|---|---|
Galaxy Z Fold7 | 256GB | €2,227 |
Galaxy Z Flip7 | 512GB | €1,425 |
These prices mark an increase of €200 for the Fold7 and €100 for the Flip7, compared to last year’s models.
What About Other Markets?
- In Europe, similar price hikes are expected across multiple countries.
- In the U.S., pricing could remain stable—for now. Reports suggest the Z Fold7 may start at $1,899 and the Z Flip7 at $1,099, matching last year’s pricing. However, potential tariffs or trade risks could cause changes down the line.
When Will We Know for Sure?
Samsung’s next Unpacked event is expected to be held on July 9 in New York City. That’s when the company will likely confirm final specs, features, and pricing.
Until then, the leaks provide a solid preview—but we’d recommend waiting for the official word before making a final buying decision.
Quick Summary
Feature | Galaxy Z Flip7 | Galaxy Z Flip7 FE |
---|---|---|
Cover Screen | 4-inch Super AMOLED | 3.4-inch AMOLED (Flip6-style) |
Processor (rumored) | Exynos 2500 | Exynos 2500 |
Colors | Jet Black, Blue Shadow, Coral Red | Black, White |
Expected EU Price | ~€1,425 (512GB) | TBD (likely lower) |

Final Thought
Samsung appears to be sticking to a strategy that blends innovation with broader accessibility. The Flip7 is pushing boundaries with design, while the Flip7 FE is trying to bring foldables to more people without the premium price tag.
