Samsung Fold 7 and Flip 7 in production! Whenever there is talk of revolution in the world of smartphones, the name of Samsung is always taken first. Be it the AMOLED displays, the immersive experience of the S Pen or now the exciting world of foldable smartphones—Samsung has set new benchmarks by breaking the boundaries of technology. Now once again the company is in the headlines with its foldable series’ latest models, Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7. The production of these phones has started and they will soon hit the market. This news is not only a big achievement for technology lovers but for the entire industry.
Timely production: A bold move
Samsung had already indicated that it was going to start production of Fold 7 and Flip 7 from May 2025. And now it has been confirmed that the company has started production on time. When most tech companies globally are facing supply chain problems, this timely move by Samsung is commendable. This will not only increase consumer confidence, but it is also a proof of the company’s business efficiency.
Reduced production target: The truth of the changing market
Although these devices will be technically cutting edge, the company has still cut the production target this time. Only 3 million units of Galaxy Z Flip 7 and only 2 million units of Galaxy Z Fold 7 will be made. This figure is about 40% less than the previous generation. The main reason for this is—the sales of foldable phones are not happening as expected. No matter how good the technology is, if it is out of the reach of the general public, its effect will be limited.
From foldable to tri-foldable: Next step
Samsung is not stopping at just the Fold 7 and Flip 7. The company is preparing for another bold move—the Galaxy Tri-Foldable Phone. This phone could arrive by the end of this year. But the company is very cautious about this device, and its production target is only 2 lakh units. The main reason for this is its extremely expensive. This device may be a technological marvel, but its price will limit it to a specific class.
Processor conundrum: Snapdragon or Exynos?
The biggest technical information about the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is that it will have the same Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset that powers the Galaxy S25 series. This chipset is not only fast but is also considered unmatched in terms of energy efficiency and AI performance.
On the other hand, there is still uncertainty about the processor of the Galaxy Z Flip 7. Some reports say that Samsung wanted to launch it with its new Exynos 2500 chipset. But this chip has not been ready in time. If this happens, then Flip 7 will also come with Snapdragon chipset.
Apple’s plan: Competition is going to intensify
The real competition of Samsung’s foldable devices will begin when Apple enters the fray. According to reports, Apple is planning to launch its first foldable iPhone in 2027 on the occasion of the 20th anniversary of the iPhone. This competition will not only be of technology, but also of innovation and consumer experience.
Apple is currently facing supply chain problems, and CEO Tim Cook is said to be very concerned about these challenges. Especially regarding RAM configuration—Apple is planning to give 12GB of RAM in every iPhone 17 model, but supply constraints may get in the way.
Thinness or durability: Will Fold 7 be the thinnest?
Some rumors said that the Fold 7 will be one of the thinnest foldable phones ever, possibly even thinner than the Oppo Find N5. But the veracity of these rumors is questionable. The Fold 7 was said to fold to a thickness of 8.2 mm, but from a practical perspective, this does not seem possible at the moment. Thin foldable phones have a limit—if you make them too thin, their durability and battery capacity are affected.
The future of foldable phones: Exciting but challenging
Samsung’s approach to the Fold 7 and Flip 7 clearly shows that the company is not shying away from innovation. But it is also not ignoring the realities of the market. Cutting down production targets is a sign of business intelligence—not weakness.
In fact, foldable technology is still in its early stages. With every new generation we are seeing better designs, more durable construction, and improved user experience. But for this technology to be widely adopted, solid progress will also be needed in areas such as price reduction, improved app optimization, and battery life.
Conclusion: Will the wait be worth it?
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 are a dream come true for tech lovers. But will the average consumer be able to get their hands on them and be a part of the next smartphone revolution? This question is still open.
While the limited availability of these devices makes them exclusive, it also makes you wonder if this technology will really become accessible to the masses. Hopefully in the coming years, Samsung and other companies will make efforts in this direction so that foldable smartphones become a common experience—not just a part of the tech exhibition.
