Why the Galaxy Z Fold7 has a 'surprisingly thin' design

The Galaxy Z Fold7 has made a strong impression on the market by becoming one of the thinnest folding smartphones today.

Measuring just 8.9mm thick when folded and 4.2mm when unfolded, the Galaxy Z Fold7 sets a new record for the thinnest phone ever made by Samsung. To achieve this, Samsung has made many improvements in design. In a post on its official website, the company revealed the secrets that make the Galaxy Z Fold7 nearly 50% thinner than the first version.

Hinge and screen

One of the most notable improvements is the Galaxy Z Fold7's hinge. Samsung says the new hinge is 27% thinner and 43% lighter than the previous version. To achieve this, the company used thinner rotating support parts that reduce the size without sacrificing durability.

The new hinge on the Galaxy Z Fold7 also has a wing panel with a wider opening angle, making the screen flatter and minimizing wrinkles. Samsung claims the Galaxy Z Fold7's hinge is still durable, capable of withstanding "thousands of folds."

The Galaxy Z Fold7's display is also optimized with a thinner panel thanks to the use of advanced materials and a redesigned structure. This helps to increase uniform rigidity and reduce the thickness of the display.

Redesigned 200 MP camera cluster

Another factor contributing to the Galaxy Z Fold7's slimness is its redesigned camera module. Samsung developed a thinner "actuator" that allows the lens to move without affecting image quality.

Samsung determined to increase foldable phone sales

Samsung said that after more than 30,000 simulations, the company finally created a thin camera module that fits the design of a folding smartphone.

Removing the S Pen from the Galaxy Z Fold7

Although not mentioned in Samsung's article, it's clear that removing S Pen support has also contributed to making the Galaxy Z Fold7's display thinner than the previous generation.

All of these elements have created a Galaxy Z Fold7 that is more elegant and impressive than ever, marking a new step forward for Samsung in competing with strong rivals from China.
