I replaced my Galaxy S25 Ultra with the Samsung Z Fold 7 - and didn't regret it


The Galaxy Z Fold 7 exceeded my expectations and stands out as one of the best book-style foldables I've used - even if its telephoto camera still leaves room for improvement.

You get an easy-to-hold form factor, virtually no crease, a cover screen that's close to a regular phone in itself, a solid hinge, and the same main camera as the Galaxy S25 Ultra. It's no longer fixated on the narrow form factor, enabling the 6.5-inch AMOLED screen with a 21:9 aspect ratio so apps interact better and play along well with the whole slab phone-like feel. I'd love for it to have a bigger battery and a better zoom camera -- the Vivo X Fold 5 has both -- but Samsung's foldable has U.S availability, longer software support, and a better user interface.
