We just got another big hint that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is on the way

• Software spotted that appears to be for the Galaxy Z Fold 7
• The foldable could be operational in July.
• Expect a thinner body and better cameras.

We expect the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 to show up in the next few months (though Samsung hasn't officially said anything about it), and we got another big clue about the existence of this book-style foldable.

According to Tipster @tarunvast33 (via 9to5Google), a new build of UI 7 has appeared on Samsung's servers — and it appears to be specifically for a new device with a model number that lines up with the numbers used on Samsung's previous Fold.

It's not the most comprehensive of leaks, but we'll take it. One UI 7 is Samsung's take on Android 15 and is already available on the Samsung Galaxy S25 phones, and should be rolling out to older Galaxy devices before long.

Given that the current Z model is set to launch in July 2024—see our Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 review for details—the Galaxy Z Fold 7 should land in July 2025, likely alongside the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 (and possibly a tri-fold model as well).

What we think we know so far

We've already heard a bit of rumour mill buzz when it comes to the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, but don't get your hopes up, as it looks as though the next version of the foldable might not bump up the internal specs too much.

On the plus side, battery life is the best thing that's been talked about. Both the Galaxy Z lold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 have been upgraded to come with more efficient displays, which should mean longer times between recharging.

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 also appears to be in line for a camera upgrade, borrowing from the special edition Galaxy Z Fold that's only available in Asia: Specifically, the 200MP primary camera is rumored to be heading to the Galaxy Z Fold 7.

There were also hints that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 It will be significantly thinner than the Z Folds that came before it – although it's unlikely to beat the thinnest foldable to date, the OPPO Find N5, which is just 4.21mm thick when unfolded.
