200 megapixel camera debuts in GALAXY Z fold7
Samsung Electronics introduces the Galaxy Z Fold7, its thinnest and lightest foldable smartphone yet, equipped with 200 megapixel wide-angle camera. Announced during the Samsung Unpacked conference on July 9th, 2025, the company showcases the dubbed high-resolution camera with AI-enhanced imaging that automatically edits the lighting, detail, and realism of the photos and videos so they can stay sharp and vivid, even in low-light settings. Aside from the debut of the 200 megapixel wide-angle camera, there’s also a 10 megapixel 100-degree camera on the main display for group selfies. Several camera settings help improve the look of the images and videos.
Samsung says that for its thinnest foldable smartphone, the upgraded ProVisual Engine can process images faster so they save immediately in a single click and keep their crispness and detail. There’s also a Night Video, which comes with intelligent motion detection to separate moving subjects from still backgrounds and reduce noise in movements. For additional color depth, the 10-bit HDR can result in videos and photos with richer color, deeper contrast, and lifelike detail, ‘no matter the time of day,’ the company adds.

Unveiling Samsung’s thinnest foldable smartphone
Samsung’s thinnest foldable smartphone, the Galaxy Z Fold7, weighs only 215 grams, which is even lighter than Samsung’s Galaxy S25 Ultra. When the phone is folded, it is 8.9 mm thick, and when unfolded, it becomes only 4.2 mm thick. On the outside, the device has a 6.5-inch screen, which is wider than the last model and uses a 21:9 aspect ratio, meaning the screen is easier to read, type on, and scroll through. It is also good for one-hand use, just like a normal phone. When users unfold Samsung’s thinnest foldable smartphone yet, the Galaxy Z Fold7 looks like a small tablet. The main screen is 8 inches wide, and it is 11 percent larger than the screen on the older version.
The screen uses a Dynamic AMOLED 2X display, showing deep black colors and bright, vivid details, and this screen also uses Vision Booster, and its brightness can go up to 2,600 nits to make it easier for the users to see the display during the day. Because of its large screen, the Galaxy Z Fold7 can double as a portable workspace, which is also ideal for multitasking. Users can open several apps at once, copy and paste between them, or drag files across the screen. In the same conference, the company also unveils the pocket-sized Z Flip7, with a 9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X display. It is also the company’s slimmest Galaxy Z Flip yet, measuring only 13.7mm when folded. Samsung’s thinnest foldable smartphone, the Galaxy Z Fold7, as well as the Galaxy Z Flip7 are available from July 25th, 2025.
