The device comes in four colors: gray, navy blue, black and a special mint green color that is only sold on the company's website.

One big change to the Galaxy Z Fold7 is its thinness. It changes its size from 153.5 x 68.1 x 12.1 mm on the Galaxy Z Fold6 to 158.4 x 72.8 x 8.9 mm when folded, and from 153.5 x 132.6 x 5.6 mm to 158.4 x 143.2 x 4.2 mm when opened.

Water resistance remains at IPX8 and there is no dust resistance. The crease in the middle of the screen remains but is fainter and less noticeable when viewed straight on.

Samsung compares the hinge system of the Galaxy Z Fold6 and Galaxy Z Fold7. The hinge system of the Z Fold7 is more compact and has less detail. The inner screen is equipped with an additional layer of titanium to increase durability and screen protection.

The device supports a series of AI-generated features with the ability to understand Vietnamese that is rated the best on the market. In addition to familiar tools from the previous generation such as translation, text editing, and instant translation, this year's most impressive feature is Gemini Live.

Users can let Gemini read information directly on the screen and give suggestions or use the camera to search directly, the ability to understand natural Vietnamese is improved better. The search circle feature is upgraded with the ability to search even when playing games, to receive instructions via the screen.

The AI generative feature applied to photo shooting and editing has also been upgraded. The camera automatically recognizes images and suggests subjects to delete or move, users just need to select the subject they want to change and do not have to manually paint as before. When taking photos, the camera will automatically recognize and suggest the best shooting angle for users. As for video recording, a useful feature is to remove noise with AI with just one touch.

The two selfie cameras have the same 10 megapixel resolution, with improved lenses for wider shooting angles. Samsung does not use a hidden camera under the screen for the main screen like before. Better photo quality thanks to new sensors, processors, AI and algorithms.
