Description:
A Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Z Fold 7 leak suggests the former could have a desirable chipset, and the latter could have an undesirable price.

FULL STORY ======================================================================The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 could use a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset rather than an Exynos 2500 We're also hearing that the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 could cost more than its predecessor However, it might at least be very slim

One of the more concerning Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 rumors weve been hearing
is that it might use an Exynos 2500 chipset, as while this would be an
upgrade on the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 used by the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 , its not the most desirable chipset.

That would be the Snapdragon 8 Elite , which is the successor to the Gen 3, and likely more capable than Samsungs own Exynos alternative. But now, theres hope that we might get the Snapdragon 8 Elite after all.

Greek site TechManiacs claims to have learned that the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip
7 will use this chipset, as well as having a larger battery than its predecessor at 4,300mAh, a bigger 4-inch cover screen (up from 3.4 inches on the Z Flip 6), and the same 50-megapixel main and 12MP ultra-wide cameras.

With the exception of the chipset these are things weve heard before, and while most previous leaks pointed to an Exynos 2500 chipset, one did suggest that there are Galaxy Z Flip 7 prototypes with both chipsets .

So TechManiacs isnt totally alone in claiming the Snapdragon 8 Elite will be used. But if Samsung was prototyping both versions, its possible that either the company still hasnt decided, or that some regions will use one and some the other.

In any case, TechManiacs has also shared some details about the Samsung
Galaxy Z Fold 7 , claiming that it will be just 8.2mm thick when folded,
which would make it far slimmer than the 12.1mm Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6 .

They also say that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 will have a Snapdragon 8 Elite chipset
though unlike for the Z Flip 7, this was always rumored for the Z Fold 7.

Additionally, as rumored previously it might have a new 200MP main camera (up from 50MP on the Galaxy Z Fold 6), joined by the same 12MP ultra-wide and
10MP 3x telephoto cameras as last year.

Finally, it will apparently cost around 100 (roughly $115 / 85 / AU$180) more than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 6, though wed take this with a pinch of salt, as other Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 price rumors put it at the same price as
last year.

We should find out exactly how much the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 costs and everything else about it and the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 fairly soon, as rumors suggest both phones will land in July.
