Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 Review: An 8-inch workspace that folds shut

The Fold7 earns its extra complexity if you regularly read wide documents or consult two apps at once. Samsung lists an 8-inch main display and a 6.5-inch cover screen. The cover screen makes quick replies practical without unfolding the device every time.

Think about the apps you open every day

The inner screen is most useful for reading, comparing a booking with a calendar, or keeping notes next to a browser. A wide screen alone cannot make every app work well in that space. Try your essential apps, including any work apps, on a demonstration unit if you can. Check how they adapt when you move between the two displays.

Cameras and long-term ownership

Samsung specifies a 200 MP main camera and a 3x optical telephoto. Those options help when framing varies, although resolution alone says little about a specific shot. The folding construction also makes service terms and case fit worth checking. The Fold7 has no S Pen support. If you buy it for the tablet-like screen, make sure your workflow works with touch.
