Compare Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 vs Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7

The Galaxy Z Flip7 and Z Flip8 share the pocket-perfect design, both folding down into something compact, both pack a 6.9-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X main display and a 4.1-inch FlexWindow cover screen, and both use FlexCam to give you hands-free shooting from any angle. Galaxy AI runs across both phones, so features like Now Brief and Google Gemini on the cover screen are present in each. The difference is in the details. The Galaxy Z Flip8 is the lightest and thinnest Galaxy Flip ever, measuring only 6.1mm and weighing just 180g, while the Flip7 measures 6.5mm and 188g. That’s a meaningful step down in bulk that you’ll notice every time it slips in and out of your pocket.

There are similarities in their everyday use as well. Both have the same 4300mAh battery and sport two rear cameras – a 50MP wide and a 12MP ultra-wide – with a 10MP front camera. Both phones have superfast and wireless charging. Both are dual SIM and eSIM compatible and have an IP48 water resistance rating. However, the Flip8 runs on an Exynos 2600 (2nm) chipset, which is a step up from the Flip7’s Exynos 2500 (3nm). A redesigned curved hinge makes opening the Flip8 feel smoother and more effortless than its predecessor, and slimmer bezels mean FlexWindow feels more immersive than ever before.

Overall, the Galaxy Z Flip7 is a brilliant Flip phone if you want a premium foldable experience without paying for the very latest generation. The Galaxy Z Flip8 is the right choice if you want the absolute best: Samsung’s slimmest, lightest, and most refined Flip to date, with a more powerful chip, a smoother opening experience, and the most immersive FlexWindow yet.
