Due to the circumstances of the work (and of life), since the end of the summer of 2021 did not have a folding mobile at my analysis table. It was then that I analyzed the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold3 and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip3two models that already seemed to me that they had improved a lot with respect to their predecessors. For a couple of days I am in New York on the occasion of the Galaxy Unpacked and confirmed it: I have flipped with the new Galaxy Fold7 y Flip7. So much, that They have changed my mind.

This fold yes

Although with fold3 they had already refined the design, it still seems quite brick. When I folded it, The feeling was to have two mobiles in the handNot one. In fact, this was what least convinced me of this format. In the end we are not going to display the mobile every time we want to look at it and the folding thickness was very uncomfortable. In addition, the exterior screen was too elongated and the format was strange. For all this I liked the concept of flip much more: fold to transport it, but when we want to use it we open it and we have a normal mobile.

When I saw the fold7 galaxy, I had to look twice to make sure, but the best came when folding it and checking that already It feels like a normal smartphonewithout strange format or impossible thickness. In fact, being folded, I could go through any galaxy s if we don’t look at the edge.

Samsung needs a lifeguard to keep its chips division alive. And just found him

Fold7 has a thickness of 8.9 millimeters when it is folded, only 0.7 millimeters more than the Ultra Galaxy S25. If we compare it with the latest model he had tried, the jump is brutal: fold3 had a thickness of 16 millimeters folded and weighed 271 grams. Has lost 7 millimeters and 56 gramswhich is said soon.

The external screen that Flip deserved

When I tried flip3, the format convinced me much more than that of fold; He had not been able to put a mobile in his pocket without stood out almost half. However, although it was very comfortable to transport it, I had a problem: With the closed mobile we could not do almost anything. That model had already expanded the screen of the first generations, but it was still a small window where we could see the notifications and little else.

The jump with Flip7 is brutal, both in size and quality. The screen occupies the entire front and has been drilled to place the cameras, reaching 4.1 inches diagonally and a 1.048×948 resolution. In addition, the refreshment rate is 120Hz. For its part, the FLIP3 had a small 1.9 -inch screen with 260×512 resolution. The bad thing is that the functions are still limited, that is, we cannot use any app from here.

The jump with Flip7 is brutal, both in size and quality. The screen occupies the entire front.

The design has also improved and is thinner and light, but here the difference is not as abysmal as with fold. Deployed has a thickness of 6.5 millimeters and in Flip3 it was 6.9 millimeters, where it shows the most is when closing it, going from the 17 millimeters of the flip3 to only 13.7 millimeters. The secret is in the hinge that Finally, the screen folds totally without leaving a space.

As I said, Flip was my favorite, but seeing the evolution of both models in these four years, I have changed my mind. My fold complaints have been solved, while Flip has not improved so much and has been a little stagnant. If I had to choose a folding today, it would be the fold without a doubt.

The competition has spurred Samsung

It would not be fair to compare Samsung only with herself and with the advantage that four years of evolution give her. Although they were pioneers, other brands entered the folding market later and managed to improve those negative aspects of those that Samsung has cost to part. An example is the outer screen of the flip, which finally occupies the entire front but it is something we already saw a year ago in the Motorola Razr 50 Ultra.

As for the thickness, if we only compare it with fold3, the difference is abysmal, but the reality is that there have been marks that have advanced to Samsung. Honor surprised us more than a year ago with the Honor Magic V2 and its 9.9 millimeters thick (folding). We also have the OPPO N5 announcerohace just a few days, honor announced the Honor Magic V5 that goes down to 8.8 millimeters and The possibility of advertising as a finer folding in the world has stolen to Fold7. Instead, it is “the thinnest fold to date.” Something is something.

The bad of renewing every year

The surprise effect on the releases of new mobiles has long abandoned us. More and more continuous mobiles that barely change Regarding the previous generation already often We wonder if it makes sense to maintain this frequency of launches. It makes sense from the point of view of business strategy, but what we are looking for is that there are substantial changes, it does not have it.

What happened to me after these four years away from folding is the perfect example. He spoke with colleagues that have followed all the presentations of Samsung’s folding and It didn’t seem so innovative. The thinness of fold7 was the most commented, but little else. In the end it will turn out that the secret for us to freak out with the new mobiles is to spend a few years “in a coma.”
