# Samsung’s New Foldables Are Here – Which One Should You Choose?
Samsung just dropped its latest generation of foldable smartphones, and tech enthusiasts everywhere are buzzing. This year’s lineup brings some exciting updates, including a surprise budget-friendly option. But with multiple models to choose from, which one deserves your hard-earned cash?
## Meet the New Galaxy Z Series
The tech giant unveiled three fresh contenders this week:
– Galaxy Z Fold7 (the premium foldable tablet hybrid)
– Galaxy Z Flip7 (the compact clamshell favorite)
– Galaxy Z Flip7 FE (a new “Fan Edition” budget option)
### The Slimmer, Lighter Z Fold7
Samsung’s engineers clearly put the Z Fold7 on a diet. Compared to last year’s model:
– Thickness reduced dramatically: Now just 8.9mm when folded (down from 12.1mm) and 4.2mm unfolded (was 5.6mm)
– Weight savings: At 215g, it’s 24g lighter than its predecessor
– Perspective: That’s actually 3g lighter than the rumored S25 Ultra!
But before you rush to pre-order, there are some compromises to note. The battery capacity remains unchanged at 4,400mAh, and charging speeds stay at 25W wired/15W wireless. S Pen support also appears unchanged from previous models.
## Which Model Fits Your Lifestyle?
For productivity power users: The Z Fold7’s expansive screen real estate makes it ideal for multitasking, though the trade-offs in battery and charging might give pause to heavy users.
For style-conscious buyers: The Z Flip7 maintains its position as the most pocket-friendly foldable, now potentially with camera upgrades (details still emerging).
For budget-minded early adopters: The new Flip7 FE could be Samsung’s play to bring foldables to the masses, though we’re still waiting on full specs and pricing details.
What’s your take? Are you ready to fold into Samsung’s latest, or waiting to see how these stack up against upcoming competitors? The foldable market just got a lot more interesting!
