Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 Unveiled, Immediately Challenges Motorola Razr Ultra in Foldable Market
Samsung has officially debuted its highly anticipated Galaxy Z Flip 7 at the recent Galaxy Unpacked event, setting the stage for a fierce competition in the foldable phone segment. This latest iteration boasts significant enhancements, including expanded inner and outer displays, increased battery capacity, and a suite of advanced AI tools designed to elevate the user experience.
The Z Flip 7 enters a market where Motorola’s Razr Ultra, launched just in April, has already established itself with a powerful processor, ample RAM, and an impressive battery. While both devices represent the high-end of foldable technology, initial spec comparisons reveal distinct strengths for each.
On pricing, the Z Flip 7 offers a more accessible starting point at $1,099.99 for 256GB, though the Razr Ultra provides more storage and RAM in its base configuration for a higher cost. In terms of display technology, the Razr Ultra stands out with a brighter and significantly more functional outer screen, allowing full app access without opening the device, a feature currently limited on the Z Flip 7.
Battery performance appears to be a clear win for the Razr Ultra, which boasts a larger 4,700mAh battery and faster 68W wired charging, offering exceptional longevity. Connectivity-wise, the Z Flip 7 gains an edge with support for faster mmWave 5G, which the Razr Ultra lacks. Both devices are equipped with robust AI capabilities, with Samsung integrating its comprehensive Galaxy AI suite and Motorola leveraging Moto AI with partnerships from Google, Meta, and Microsoft.
Perhaps the most significant differentiator for long-term value is software support: the Galaxy Z Flip 7 ships with Android 16 and promises an industry-leading seven years of OS upgrades and security patches, far surpassing Motorola’s three years of OS and four years of security support for the Razr Ultra. While a full, hands-on review of the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is still underway, these initial specifications indicate that consumers now have two compelling, yet distinct, choices in the premium flip phone category.
