Why Is Samsung Betting Big on Foldables Again?

Foldable phones once felt like a gimmick — but Samsung is doubling down. The Galaxy Z Fold and Z Flip are slimmer, more durable, and packed with serious hardware. Samsung’s big idea? That multitasking and compact design can actually coexist. Paired with Android 14, the foldables now support better split-screen features and app continuity. Battery life has improved, and the crease is barely noticeable. Plus, AI integration is making these devices feel futuristic. While some still hesitate at the price, Samsung sees foldables as more than a trend. It’s not just about the wow factor — it’s about redefining the phone.

It seems that consumers love the new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7. More and more customers are showing interest in the foldable phones. But it’s two specific Google features that are particularly popular on the smartphone.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7: These Features Make It a Hit

In addition to many smart TVs or smartwatches, Samsung offers its customers a wide selection of powerful phones. This year, the manufacturer is impressing not only with premium smartphones like the Samsung Galaxy S25, but also with the Galaxy Z Fold series and Galaxy Z Flip series. According to Android Central, Samsung’s models have become a real sales hit this year, exceeding some expectations. Compared to the previous model, sales in the US are said to have increased by up to 30 percent.

The reason for this success with the Galaxy Z Fold7 is reportedly the improved display, making the phones significantly thinner and lighter than the previous Fold generation. The increased battery performance and a larger cover display are said to have garnered more approval from those using the Galaxy Z Flip 7 series. Additionally, both models are equipped with a Snapdragon 8 Elite chip, which provides the necessary performance and efficiency.

Latest News

Samsung stated that the new generation of the Galaxy Z series already led to “record-setting” pre-order figures at its sales launch in July 2025. In a press release, the company said:

This unrivaled interest in the latest generation of the Galaxy Z series set new benchmarks for Samsung foldables during a record-setting preorder period in July. The strong consumer response seen at launch continues, with Galaxy Z Fold7 purchases currently exceeding the previous generation by 50%.

Besides a powerful processor and a high-quality camera, the AI features of Samsung Galaxy phones seem to be particularly satisfying. The majority of users likely make use of Galaxy AI. It’s surprising, however, that two specific Google features, Google Gemini and Circle to Search, appear to be very popular. These smart AI features are already integrated into many newer Android phones and are frequently used on the Galaxy Z Fold7 and Galaxy Z Flip7.
