Samsung has launched its latest foldable smartphones, the Galaxy Z Fold7, Z Flip7, and Flip7 FE, promising smarter features, better cameras, and sleeker designs for Nigerian users.
The new Galaxy Z Fold7 is Samsung’s thinnest and lightest foldable yet, weighing just 215 grams. It features a 6.5-inch cover display and unfolds to reveal an even larger screen, 11% bigger than last year’s model. This makes it easier for users to multitask, edit documents, or enjoy movies on the go.
Powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite processor, the Fold7 delivers a big boost in speed and AI performance. Samsung says the new chip is up to 41% faster for AI tasks, making real-time language translation and photo editing smoother than ever.
The Fold7’s camera system has also been upgraded. It uses AI to improve photos and videos, even in low light. Features like Photo Assist and Generative Edit let users erase unwanted objects or adjust backgrounds with a tap. Audio Eraser can now remove background noise from videos, like traffic or wind.
Samsung’s new One UI 8, based on Android 16, powers the Fold7 and Flip7 series. This software brings smarter multitasking, better privacy controls, and new AI-powered assistants. Gemini Live, for example, lets users ask questions by typing or speaking, and even get instant answers by showing the AI what’s on their screen.
Battery life is also improved. The Flip7’s 4,300mAh battery can last up to 31 hours of video playback. The phone runs on a new 3nm processor, offering faster performance and better energy efficiency.
Samsung has also introduced the Flip7 FE, a more affordable foldable with a 6.7-inch main display and a 50MP FlexCam for hands-free selfies and video calls.
On the security front, Samsung is rolling out new protections like Knox Enhanced Encrypted Protection and quantum-resistant encryption for safer connections, especially on public Wi-Fi.
The new foldables are available for pre-order in various colours, including Blue Shadow, Jetblack, Coral-red, Mint, Black, and White. Samsung Care+ is offered free, covering accidental damage and repairs for peace of mind.
Tae Sun Lee, CEO of Samsung Electronics West Africa, said at the launch, “With the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Flip7, we’re not just offering new phones, we’re giving Nigerians smarter tools to create, connect, and express themselves every day.”
With these launches, Samsung is raising the bar for smartphones in Nigeria, blending cutting-edge AI, durability, and style.
