There are plenty of times in life when thinner isn’t necessarily better, but in the case of tablet-style foldable phones, slimming down is definitely for the best.
That’s my big takeaway after several days playing with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, the latest flagship foldable from the Korean tech giant. It combines what I always liked best about this style of foldable (namely the incredible versatility of its display modes) with an almost unbelievably sleek form factor that makes it the best Samsung foldable yet.
Yes, it starts at $1,999, making it the textbook definition of a premium or luxury product. And beyond that, its battery life didn’t wow me during my testing, and what counts for new software features here mostly just bring the Fold line up to speed with previous Galaxy phones’ AI features. But there’s so much else to like about the Fold 7 that if you have $2,000 lying around and any part of it sounds appealing to you, it’s well worth your consideration. Plus, if you pre-order from Amazon, you can get a $300 gift card to soften the financial blow.
