Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 leaks in CAD-based renders
Yesterday we saw the first set of leaked renders depicting the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7, and today the Galaxy Z Flip7 has received the exact same treatment. Like the Fold7's, these are also CAD-based, so minor details could still be different with the final product, but they do give us a very good idea of what to expect, design-wise, from Samsung's next flagship flip-style foldable.
The source of the renders claims the Flip7 will measure 166.6 x 75.2 x 6.9 mm when unfolded (9.1 mm thick with the camera bumps). This means the device will be ever so slightly taller, much wider, and the same thickness as its predecessor.
The added size is there to accommodate larger screens - 6.8" on the inside and 3.6" on the outside. The Flip7 will still have just two main cameras, a 50 MP main one and a 12 MP ultrawide. Apparently we could be getting upgraded sensors compared to the Flip6, even though the resolutions are the same.
The Flip7 might be powered by the Exynos 2500 SoC, depending on how much the yields improve. If not, it will go with the Snapdragon 8 Elite, though it's not clear if it will use the seven-core version. RAM will be 12GB and storage options will be 256GB and 512GB.
Pricing is expected to remain the same as last year when the Flip6 launched, which is a good thing since we're not seeing a hike, but a not-so-great thing considering how we've been waiting for foldable smartphone prices to go down for years and yet they never have to any considerable extent. Finally, some good news: the crease will be less visible than it is on the Flip6.

unorthodox battery shapes will be beneficial optimizing internal space for sure. so, SSB is a work in progress and will be commercialized in 2-3 years. samsung is probably extra cautious about new battery tech due to bad experience with note7 and swo...

First let me say mobile phones are not the reason for this push to commercialize SSBs. This came about in pursuit of cheaper, safer and more durable EVs. From what I've read, the advantages are the solid electrolyte makes the batteries m...

Valuable information. What is the reason of going for solid state instead of silicon carbon? Are they more dense,sustainable or...samsung facilities will produce them? I wonder the motivation of the choice if you don't mind. Cheers...
