I tested Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7, and it became my new favorite foldable (despite the limitations)

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 7 surpassed my expectations as one of the best book-style foldables I've used, despite its telephoto camera limitations.

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.
