We are just a few days away from the official launch of Samsung's premium foldables: the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7. The second Unpacked event is expected to take place in New York, marking Samsung's return to the city after two years.
Samsung has already shared two teasers with the Galaxy Z Fold7 in focus, suggesting that this year's Galaxy Z Fold7 will be taller and wider compared to last year's Galaxy Z Fold6. The teaser also highlights the thinness of the upcoming Z Fold7, claiming that it will be the thinnest and lightest foldable from Samsung ever.
Samsung's claims appear to be true, as, way ahead of its official unveiling, a Korean YouTuber, TheSINZA, has shared a video comparing the supposed Galaxy Z Fold7 with the standard Galaxy Z Fold6 and the Galaxy Z Fold6 Special Edition, which launched in China and Korea.
The dummy unit of the Galaxy Z Fold7, when compared with last year's foldables, reveals just how thin and lightweight the upcoming foldable could be. The video suggests that the Z Fold7 will weigh 215 grams, much lighter than the Galaxy Z Fold6 Special Edition, which weighed 236 grams.

When the Galaxy Z Fold7 dummy unit is put side-by-side against the Z Fold6 Special Edition, it appears to be noticeably thinner, measuring 9mm compared to the 10.6 mm thickness of the Galaxy Z Fold6 SE. From the front, the Galaxy Z Fold7 looks similar to the Galaxy Z Fold6 Special Edition, but different than the Galaxy Z Fold6.

Though the volume rockers and power buttons appear thin in the Galaxy Z Fold7 dummy unit, they are located in the same place as previous foldables. The dummy unit is also compared with the Galaxy S25 Ultra, and in terms of thickness, it is almost identical. This would mean that the foldable won't feel different compared to Samsung's premium slab phone.
Samsung could unveil its foldables on July 9. There are also rumors that an affordable Galaxy Z Flip7 FE could also debut during the event.
