Samsung, India’s largest consumer electronics brand, today announced that it has begun taking pre orders for the most advanced Galaxy Z series yet – Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7.

 

Galaxy Z Fold7 brings together the best of Galaxy design, camera functionality and AI innovation in the thinnest and lightest Galaxy Z Fold series to date. It delivers the premium performance and experience of an ultra-smartphone, while unlocking new levels of efficiency and productivity with a larger, more immersive display when unfolded.

 

Thinnest, Lightest Galaxy Z Fold To Date

Galaxy Z Fold7 is crafted for those who want the everyday portability and intuitive feel of a traditional smartphone, combined with the enhanced power and flexibility of a larger, unfolded display – all in one device. With its ultra-thin and light design and wider cover display, Galaxy Z Fold7 delivers a seamless on-the-go experience that makes typing and browsing effortless when it is folded.

 

  • At just 215 grams, Galaxy Z Fold7 is even lighter than Galaxy S25 Ultra.

  • It is just 8.9 mm thick when folded and 4.2 mm thick when unfolded.

  • The device comes with 6.5-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2x cover display, a wider screen with a new 21:9 aspect ratio. 

Most Expansive Screen on Galaxy Smartphone

When unfolded, Galaxy Z Fold7 reveals an expansive screen that expands the workspace for editing, multitasking and immersive viewing – getting more out of Galaxy AI. The main display on Galaxy Z Fold7 is 11% larger than the previous generation, providing even more screen real estate for content editing and multitasking across multiple apps.

 

  • The 8-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2x main display offers ultra-rich contrast, true blacks and vibrant detail that makes everything pop — from movies to tabs open while multitasking.

  • With Vision Booster and up to 2,600 nits of peak brightness, Galaxy Z Fold7 stays brilliantly visible even in direct sunlight. 

Looks Sleek, Built Tough

From repeated folding to being tossed in a bag, it’s engineered for everyday durability and built to last longer, with a restructured hinge and foldable display.

 

  • The Armor FlexHinge is thinner and lighter, thanks to an enhanced water droplet design and newly implemented multi-rail structure that reduces visible creasing and strengthens durability by evenly dispersing stress.

  • The cover display is made with Corning® Gorilla® Glass Ceramic 2, a new glass ceramic that has crystals intricately embedded within its glass matrix. This secures the screen’s durability and crack deflection capabilities and delivers protection in a remarkably thin form factor.

  • Advanced Armor Aluminum in the frame and hinge housing increases strength and hardness by 10%.

  • The main display is restructured to be thinner and lighter – yet stronger. This was achieved by implementing the Titanium plate layer. Additionally, Ultra-Thin Glass (UTG) was increased to be 50% thicker, making the display tougher.   

The Most Powerful Processor Customized for Galaxy

Under the hood, Galaxy Z Fold7 is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy delivers performance boosts of 41% in NPU, 38% in CPU, and 26% in GPU compared to the previous generation. This power fuels Galaxy Z Fold7’s ability to process more AI experiences on-device without compromise.

 

Ultra 200MP Camera

AI-enhanced imaging automatically optimizes lighting, detail and realism, so photos and videos stay sharp and vivid.

 

  • Featuring the first 200MP wide-angle camera in the Galaxy Z series, it captures 4x more detail, producing images that are 44% brighter.

  • The 10MP 100° camera on the main display expands the frame, so when users unfold their phone, it’s easy to capture group selfies, valuable moments and more of the world in a single shot.

  • Samsung’s next generation ProVisual Engine processes images faster, enabling every photo and video to be more crisp, vibrant and full of detail.

  • With Night Video, intelligent motion detection now separates moving subjects from still backgrounds to reduce noise.

  • 10-bit HDR provides more color depth. The result is videos with richer color, deeper contrast and more lifelike detail, no matter the time of day. 

Ultra AI Experience

AI Results View displays results from AI features in a separate Split View or in a Floating View, so the user’s original content remains unobstructed and visible. Users can be more efficient with Drag & Drop AI-generated content, including images and text, directly from Multi Window. With tools like Drawing Assist or Writing Assist, it’s easier than ever to move ideas and visuals, enabling a smoother creative process.

  • Shots look flawless with Photo Assist, which moves, erases or enlarges objects and adjusts angles and fills in backgrounds with AI-powered precision. Users can seize vibrant expressions, including pet profiles with Portrait Studio and refine their photos using Galaxy’s enhanced Generative Edit. It offers proactive suggestions with the new Suggest Erases. Moreover, Side-by-Side Editing and Show Original enables real-time comparison of original images and edited versions on the large screen, making it easier to decide what to modify and what to keep.  Audio Eraser has also been upgraded to be more intelligent and convenient. 

Galaxy Z Flip7 is a compact AI phone with multimodal capabilities, powered by a new FlexWindow. Small enough to slip into a pocket, yet powerful enough to deliver the handiest assistance, it melds Galaxy AI with a now edge-to-edge FlexWindow, a flagship level camera and an ultra-compact and iconic design.

  • The Armor FlexHinge is thinner than the hinge on the previous generation and features a restructured design and high-strength materials for smoother folds and long-lasting durability.

  • A robust Armor Aluminum Frame provides a tough exterior for resilience.

 

Power That Lasts Longer and Works Smarter

 

While the Galaxy Z Flip7 has been slimmed down and refined throughout, it now features a bigger battery and an even bigger display – all in a more compact form.

Plus, all this information can be stored in Samsung Notes for easy access later. It’s like having a personal assistant, right on the cover screen. 

  • With camera sharing on Gemini Live, getting real-time help is as easy as pointing the camera.

A Pocket-Sized Selfie Studio

Future-Ready Mobile Security

As mobile experiences grow ever more intelligent and interconnected, Samsung is reinforcing the foundations that protect them – unveiling new protections for on-device AI, expanding cross-device threat detection and enhancing network security with quantum-resistant encryption. One UI 8 brings enhanced privacy to personalized AI experiences with the new Knox Enhanced Encrypted Protection (KEEP). KEEP creates encrypted, app-specific storage environments within the device’s secure storage area, ensuring each app can access only its own sensitive information and nothing more. With One UI 8, Samsung is advancing Knox Matrix to deliver more proactive and user-friendly protection across the Galaxy ecosystem.

Samsung Electronics to Unveil its Thinnest, Lightest and Most Durable Foldable Smartphones Today


South Korean tech giant Samsung Electronics is all set to launch its latest *foldable smartphones in Brooklyn, New York on July 9. Samsung is known for its visionary thinking and bold ideas that shape the future, so it’s only fitting that Samsung unveils the latest and greatest additions to the Galaxy portfolio in a place known for its culture, creativity and collaboration.  The company has teased that the upcoming foldables - now in their seventh generation - will be the thinnest, lightest and most durable of all. 

First introduced in 2019, Galaxy Z Fold signalled the herald of a new folding category of smartphones for consumers, combining the portability of a smartphone with the extensive productivity of a tablet. However, the category has remained small due to high prices and concerns around durability and longevity of foldable devices.

 

These are the key areas that Samsung is likely to address, when TM Roh, the acting head of the Company's Device eXperience (DX) Division, takes the stage in a Brooklyn Convention Centre later this week. The Company recently said that its engineers and designers are refining each generation of the Galaxy Z series to be thinner, lighter and more durable than the last.

 

Samsung has also teased camera innovations, indicating that the new foldable devices will feature a more powerful, dynamic and immersive camera system. According to Samsung's recent teasers, the company is likely to bring the Galaxy S25 series' Ultra camera experience to the new Galaxy Z Fold7. This means that the Galaxy Fold series may get its first flagship camera, removing a big pain point among consumers who wanted to adopt foldables phones but were not impressed with its camera.

 

Samsung is also likely to continue with its strategy to bring more AI features with Galaxy AI, which the company says goes beyond what devices can do and is about how people interact with them. The Company is also expected to launch a new AI-powered interface, supported by breakthrough hardware.

Thoughtfully designed to elevate the SUV’s already bold and sophisticated appeal, this exclusive accessory bundle offers customers an added layer of style, presence, and functionality for everyday driving.

Available from July 2025, the Prestige Package includes 10 high-value, dealer-fitted and genuine accessories that perfectly complement the strong, urban design of the Hyryder:

  1. Door Visor – Premium with SS Insert

  2. Hood Emblem

  4. Fender Garnish

  5. Body Cladding

  6. Front Bumper Garnish

  7. Head Lamp Garnish

  8. Rear Bumper Garnish

  9. Rear Lamp Garnish – Chrome

  10. Back Door Garnish

Each accessory has been curated to seamlessly blend with the Hyryder ’s distinct SUV character—amplifying its muscular stance, chrome highlights, and striking silhouette, while also offering added protection and durability.

A Benchmark in the B-SUV Segment

At the heart of the Urban Cruiser Hyryder is a first-in-segment self-charging strong hybrid electric powertrain that intelligently combines petrol and electric power for exceptional fuel efficiency and smooth, silent performance. Powered by Toyota’s 1.5L TNGA Atkinson cycle engine and an advanced electric motor, the hybrid variant is ideal for both city and highway drives. The Neo Drive (mild-hybrid) variants come with a 1.5L K-series engine, offered with a 5-speed manual or 6-speed automatic transmission. For added capability, select trims also feature an intelligent All-Wheel Drive (AWD) system—making the Hyryder as versatile as it is efficient.

Embodying Toyota’s global SUV DNA, the Hyryder features a bold Crystal Acrylic Grille, twin LED DRLs, sculpted character lines, and 17-inch alloy wheels. Inside, the cabin blends comfort and convenience with ventilated leather seats, a panoramic sunroof, 9-inch touchscreen with wireless Apple CarPlay/Android Auto, wireless charging, ambient lighting, and a 360-degree camera. Practical touches like rear reclining seats, rear AC vents, USB ports, and a 60:40 split rear seat make it an ideal fit for modern Indian families.

Toyota enhances ownership with 66 exclusive accessories, a 3-year/100,000 km warranty (extendable to 5 years/220,000 km), and an 8-year/160,000 km hybrid battery warranty, ensuring a premium and hassle-free driving experience

Making its debut in 2022, the Urban Cruiser Hyryder has steadily gained popularity among SUV buyers in India, recently surpassing the 1,00,000-unit sales milestone. This reflects growing trust in Toyota’s hybrid technology and its commitment to sustainable mobility. With its bold design, spacious interiors, and proven reliability, the Hyryder continues to offer a well-rounded ownership experience.

Toyota invites customers to visit their nearest dealership to explore the Prestige Package and experience the enhanced value and confidence of driving a Toyota hybrid SUV.
