ETnews, a South Korean news website, reports rumors that Samsung’s next foldable phone, likely to be called Galaxy Z Fold 7, will feature a redesigned larger display and a thinner profile similar to the Galaxy Z Fold Special Edition sold in select countries.
According to ETnews, the main foldable screen will expand to 8 inches, while the cover display will increase to 6.5 inches (up from 7.6 inches and 6.3 inches respectively). Samsung aims to reduce the device’s thickness to 10 millimeters (compared to the 10.6 millimeters of the Z Fold SE).
One intriguing detail is Samsung’s decision to remove the digitizer used to detect input from the S Pen stylus, allowing for a thinner design by 0.3 millimeters (when considering both sides of the fold, it totals 0.6 millimeters). Samsung plans to alter the S Pen mechanism to include an internal battery, enabling writing on the screen without the need for a digitizer.
