0:00Hey guys, this is Ser from Yugate and
0:01today we are at another Samsung Galaxy
0:04Unpacked event and today’s we are
0:06launching two new devices that are going
0:09to be talked about a lot. The first is
0:11the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 and
0:13alongside it is the Z Flip FE and if you
0:16want to know more about that, you can
0:17check out TY’s video which is out right
0:20now. But for today in this video, we’re
0:22going to be talking about the new Galaxy
0:25Zfold 7. And as you can tell, it’s a lot
0:28slimmer. And there’s a lot of new
0:31updates, too. There are new cameras, a
0:33new OS, and of course, a new chipset.
0:36But what else does the Galaxy Zfold 7
0:39have in store? Well, stay tuned as we
0:41talk about it in this hands-on review
0:42video of the Galaxy ZFold 7.
0:51Let’s start things off with the biggest
0:53change Samsung made to the Galaxy ZFold
0:557, the design. We’re not talking about
0:57the overall design of the ZFold 7,
0:59though. It still features the same
1:01Samsung design language we’re very much
1:03familiar with. Instead, I’m talking
1:05about the size of the phone itself. It’s
1:07usually hard to tell when a company says
1:09their new phone is slimmer than before,
1:11but not for the Galaxy ZFold 7. At one
1:14glance, you can tell just how slim it
1:16has become, both folded and especially
1:19unfolded. To give you a better
1:20reference, we compared it to TY’s Galaxy
1:22S23, which is already a slim phone to
1:24begin with. Unfolded, the ZFold 7 is
1:27even thinner. I’m quite surprised how
1:29Samsung managed to fit a physical SIM
1:31card slot as well as the USBC port in
1:33this phone given how slim it is. Because
1:36of the slimmer body, the Galaxy ZFold 7
1:38feels a lot better in our pockets. And
1:40despite it being a lot slimmer, the
1:41Galaxy ZFold 7 didn’t feel fragile. It
1:44still feels solid and sturdy. Even with
1:46a thinner body, it doesn’t seem like it
1:47will easily break despite numerous
1:49cycles of opening and closing the main
1:50display. Speaking of the display, the
1:52cover screen has also become slightly
1:54larger. There are thinner borders all
1:56around. And from our short experience
1:57with the phone, you can do almost
1:59everything on the cover screen already.
2:01Still an LTPO AMOLED panel with 120 Hz
2:03refresh rate, meaning you can already
2:05play games and enjoy watching videos
2:07from the cover screen alone. But of
2:09course, that’s best done on the main
2:10display. Similar to the cover screen,
2:12the main display of the Samsung Galaxy
2:13Zfold 7 is also bigger than before. And
2:16it’s here where you will really enjoy
2:18watching videos or playing games. And
2:19just like before, you can set it up
2:21folded where in half the screen displays
2:22the video with the other half just as
2:24your controller. Alternatively, you can
2:26just open it fully and watch everything
2:28from there. The crease is also a lot
2:30less noticeable as compared to before.
2:32It’s still there, but the majority of
2:33the time you’re using the phone, you
2:34won’t really notice it at all. Now,
2:36under the hood, Samsung did upgrade the
2:38chipset of the Galaxy Zfold 7. It now
2:41uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset,
2:43which is similar to what you’d find in
2:44the flagship Samsung Galaxy S25 series.
2:47Depending on the variant you choose, it
2:48is available with up to 16 GB of RAM and
2:51up to 1 TB of storage. Since this is
2:53just a hands-on video, and given our
2:54short time with the phone, we weren’t
2:56really able to run our usual benchmarks.
2:58However, we were able to play a few
2:59games. On Genjin, it handled everything
3:01maxed out and surprisingly for a phone
3:03this thin, there weren’t any heating
3:05issues either. But it’s no surprise that
3:07the ZFold 7 could run graphic intensive
3:10titles given the very capable chipset.
3:12What we were more interested in was the
3:14OS. The Galaxy ZFold 7 ships with
3:16Android 16 out of the box skin with 1 UI
3:198. It comes with improved AI features
3:21and even better quick share to name a
3:22few. We didn’t get to tinker with it too
3:24much, but just like the chipset, we’ll
3:26have more info about it in the full
3:27review. Moving on to the cameras,
3:29Samsung made some major changes here as
3:31well. The cameras of the previous ZFold
3:33series weren’t exactly the best,
3:35especially compared to the S23 or even
3:37the S24 Ultra that were launched
3:39alongside it. But on the Galaxy ZFold 7,
3:42it now comes with a 200 megapixel main
3:44shooter similar to that on the Galaxy
3:46S25 Ultra. We did get to try it out a
3:49bit, and there is certainly a big
3:51improvement in terms of the quality,
3:53especially in not so well-lit
3:54environments like the one we were in. As
3:56for the rest of the cameras, they seem
3:57to be a carryover from before. But hey,
4:00at least the main camera is now a lot
4:02more capable than ever. And just like
4:04before, you can turn on the cover screen
4:06while using the camera to show what the
4:08person you’re taking a photo of what
4:10they look like. It also makes it a lot
4:11easier to take selfies using the main
4:13camera as opposed to the cover or the
4:15front camera. As for the battery, there
4:17appears to be no changes here. It still
4:18uses the same 4,400 mAh battery pack as
4:22before with similar charging speeds.
4:24Unfortunately, that’s all the time we
4:26had with the Samsung Galaxy ZFold 7, but
4:28stay tuned for our full review, which
4:30will be coming out very soon. What we do
4:32have is the price. It’s a lot more
4:34expensive now, starting at 112,990
4:38pesos for the 12 + 256 GB variant and
4:42120,990 pesos for the 12 + 512 GB
4:46variant. As for the topsp spec 16 GB
4:48plus 1 TB model, that will set you back
4:51141,990 pesos. You do have four colors
4:54to choose from: blue shadow, jet black,
4:56silver shadow, and the online exclusive
4:59mint color. Oh, so that about wraps up
5:02our video on the Samsung Galaxy ZFold 7.
5:05What do you guys think of this new
5:07foldable phone from Samsung? It has a
5:10new chipset, the Snapdragon 8 Elite,
5:12which is a lot more powerful. It also
5:14has a new camera with a 200 megapixel
5:16main shooter. And of course, it’s a lot
5:18thinner, so it now fits in your pocket a
5:21lot easier. And when you unfold it, it’s
5:23even a lot thinner. It’s a lot of money,
5:25but you do get a lot of improvements as
5:28compared to before. But whatever the
5:30case, what do you guys think of the new
5:32Samsung Galaxy Zfold 7? Would you cop it
5:36or would you rather cop the Samsung
5:38Galaxy Z Flip 7? Whatever the case,
