FULL STORY ======================================================================A reputable Samsung-focused news site has suggested the Galaxy Z Flip 7 could get a decent battery capacity increase The Galaxy Z Flip 7 could ship with a 4,300mAh battery, up from 4,000mAh in the Galaxy Z Flip 6 Samsung has yet to confirm that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 is on the way The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 could be getting a welcome upgrade to a crucial bit of hardware over the current-gen Galaxy Z Flip 6 , if a new rumor is to be believed. According to Dutch site GalaxyClub , the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will ship with a 4,300mAh battery, up from the 4,000mAh battery in the Galaxy Z Flip 6. If this rumor is borne out, that would mark the second 300mAh boost in as many years for Samsungs most accessible foldable, as the Galaxy Z Flip 5 launched with a 3,700mAh battery back in 2023. Battery improvements of any kind are especially welcome for folding phones, which can struggle to provide the same longevity as their candy-bar counterparts due to the inherent inefficiency of splitting a battery cell between the two (or more as we start to see tri-folding devices) parts of the phone. Indeed, our Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 review found the phones battery to be a rare downside to an otherwise impressively capable handset. GalaxyClub notes that, due to the way battery capacities are advertised, the rated capacity of the phone will likely be lower, at around 4,174mAh. Thats still an improvement on the Galaxy Z Flip 6, which the report states had a rated capacity of 3,887mAh. As we previously reported, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 is otherwise largely expected to follow the form and function of last years model , with recent renders suggesting the two will almost be identical in appearance. That visual similarity tells us a bit about the phones hardware too were still expecting two cameras, a contoured cover display, and an inner screen with a tall aspect ratio, though the displays are tipped to very slightly increase in size. Still, the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 already holds a spot on our lists of the best folding phones and best Samsung phones , so a boost to battery would probably be enough to secure those spots for its follow-up, too.
