Big Upgrade: 6,000mAh Battery on Z Fold 7
Samsung’s move to a 6,000mAh battery (up from 4,400mAh in the Z Fold 6) addresses the biggest pain point of foldables: endurance. Early tests suggest:
- 12+ hours of screen-on time with mixed use.
- 8 hours of gaming (e.g., Honkai: Star Rail on medium settings).
- 45W Super Fast Charging (0–65% in 30 minutes).
This leap is enabled by new stacked battery tech, allowing higher capacity without bulking up the device.

Early Concerns

The Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 push foldables closer to mainstream viability. With the Z Fold 7’s massive battery and the Z Flip 7’s app-ready cover screen, Samsung is betting big on practicality meeting innovation. If leaks hold, these devices could silence critics of foldable endurance—for good.
