Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 is shaping up to be one of its sleekest foldables yet. According to new leaks, the device won’t just be thinner but it will also have slimmer bezels and a wider display.

Recent reports suggest the Galaxy Z Fold 7 will be thinner than expected and might even set a record for foldable phone thickness. Well-known leaker Ice Universe has now added more details through a series of new posts. Sharing a comparison, the leaker wrote on X (formerly Twitter), “I made a table to compare the body sizes of Samsung Fold6, Fold SE, and Fold7.”

For starters, the leak includes a size comparison between the new Fold 7 and its predecessor. When opened, the Galaxy Z Fold 6 measured 153.5 x 132.6mm. In comparison, the Fold 7 will be slightly taller and wider at 158.4 x 143.1mm. That also makes it a bit bigger than last year’s Galaxy Z Fold SE, which came in at 157.9 x 142.6mm.

What really stands out is how much thinner the Fold 7 is. Its thickness when open drops from 5.6mm on the Fold 6 to just 3.9mm, which is a major improvement. That’s even slimmer than the Fold SE, which had a 4.9mm profile.

In another post, Ice Universe shared that the bezels around the inner display will also be much thinner. While the Galaxy Z Fold 6 had 1.9mm bezels, the Fold 7 will reduce that to around 1mm. The upcoming Flip 7 is also expected to drop its bezels to just 1.2mm. This is a big step forward for foldables, which have often had chunkier bezels compared to regular smartphones.
