Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is shown in live photos for the first time: thinner, lighter and in a new Blue Shadow colour
Only a few days are left until the official premiere of Galaxy Z Fold7 at Samsung Unpacked on 9 July, and now it's time for the leaks to start pouring in. It started, of course, with Twitter. The images show a new Blue Shadow shade, an updated camera design and a record-setting slim profile.

The cameras are reminiscent of Galaxy Z Fold 6, but now they are surrounded by metal rings, and the LED flash has been moved lower. The Fold 7 is expected to be only 4.2mm thick when open and 8.9mm when folded. This makes it Samsung's thinnest foldable smartphone yet. The weight should also be reduced: 215 grams compared to 239 grams for the Fold 6.
