Somewhere in between those two statements, you’ll know whether the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is for you. I sometimes forget I’m using a folding phone when the Z Fold 7 is closed. That’s a point I kept revisiting as I used the Z Fold 7. How much you use the inner screen will dramatically affect battery life; I got through a day of moderate use and occasional inner screen use with around 50 percent left. If you compare the Z Fold 7 to a top-tier slab phone like the S25 Ultra spec by spec, the folding phone often comes up short.
