Samsung has confirmed the names of its upcoming foldable phones, Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, through a quiet update to its own Galaxy Store.
This didn’t come from leaks or tech analysts this time; the company itself gave it away.
In an apparent oversight, the beta version of Samsung’s Internet Browser app was listed with explicit mention of support for the “Fold7 and Flip7”.
This listing, spotted by GalaxyClub, remains visible in the Galaxy Store at the time of reporting. Although the company has not officially announced the devices, this accidental reveal leaves little to imagination.
I verified that the listing appears when using a Galaxy device running One UI 8, currently in beta and only available on the Galaxy S25 series. Anyone on older software simply won’t see it. This means the leak was hidden in plain sight, visible only to users who knew where (and how) to look.
Interestingly, there’s no indication that this browser version is functionally different from the one used on existing devices. It’s likely the browser has been optimised for the Fold 7 and Flip 7 display formats, but technically it remains version 28.0.2.43, the same as its standard counterpart. We don’t know if these upcoming phones ship with unique browser features.
This also confirms, in practical terms, that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 will launch with Android 16 and One UI 8 pre-installed. That had been speculated for some time, but the app listing now settles the matter.
What about the long-rumoured Fold Ultra or the cheaper Flip FE? Samsung did tease a device bearing the “Ultra” name recently, leading to speculation about a premium foldable model. But there’s nothing in the Galaxy Store listing that supports the existence of such a device. It appears, for now, that “Ultra” might have been just marketing noise.
At this point, we can expect at least two models, the Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7, at Samsung’s next Unpacked event. Sources suggest the event is scheduled for early July and might take place in New York, but there’s still no official word from Samsung.
As for the tri-fold model rumoured for later in the year? We’ve heard whispers that it might be launched exclusively in South Korea and China, but at this stage, nothing is confirmed.
