Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 might come with a surprisingly thinner design

This year, Samsung’s new Flip is expected to come with a huge change to its outer display, with a larger screen wrapped around the cameras. But that’s not all. The phone may also come with a thinner profile, as can be seen in new leaked renders.

Evan Blass (@evleaks) has shared the new CAD renders for the Z Flip 7 on X, which corroborate the previous claim of a larger outer screen, and also show the new, thinner chassis. There has already been some discussion about Samsung reducing the side thickness of the larger ‘Fold,’ specifically from 12.1mm to 8.9mm.

While the book-style Folds have received their fair share of size reduction over the past few years, the Flips have been left behind. Even in these renders, there is no confirmation of the size changing, but what is being said is that, looking at the older Flip 6, and comparing the new renders side by side, there is a visible difference in the size above and below the SIM card tray on both phones.

The Z Flip 7 is also expected to come with Samsung’s in-house Exynos 2500, based on the 3nm process node. It will also be interesting to see how this SoC fares against the much more popular option of Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite series of chipsets.

This is all we know for now, but rest assured that we will keep you updated as new information becomes available.
