Why Indian Consumers Are Going Crazy for Foldables
JB Park, President and CEO of Samsung Southwest Asia, attributes this success to young Indian consumers’ eagerness to adopt the latest technology. The “Made in India” aspect adds patriotic appeal while the One UI 8 and Android 16 integration delivers true multimodal AI experiences right out of the box.
Engineering Marvels That Justify the Hype
The Galaxy Z Fold7 achieves something remarkable – at just 215 grams, it’s actually lighter than the Galaxy S25 Ultra while delivering a massive 8-inch display when unfolded. The 4.2mm thickness when opened creates an almost tablet-like experience in pocket-sized form.
Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Flip7 revolutionizes compact smartphones with its edge-to-edge 4.1-inch FlexWindow – the largest ever on a Galaxy Z Flip. The 4,300mAh battery delivers up to 31 hours of video playback, solving the perennial compact phone battery problem.
AI-Powered Features That Actually Matter
Both devices showcase Samsung’s commitment to practical AI integration. Google’s Gemini Live enables real-time screen sharing with the AI assistant, while Knox Enhanced Encrypted Protection (KEEP) ensures app-specific storage environments for maximum privacy.
The Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor delivers massive performance boosts: 41% in NPU, 38% in CPU, and 26% in GPU compared to previous generations.
Color Options That Please Everyone
Samsung offers stunning variety – Blue Shadow, Silver Shadow, and Jet Black for the Z Fold7, while the Z Flip7 adds Coral Red to the mix. Exclusive Mint colorways are available through Samsung.com for both flagship models.
For enthusiasts tracking Samsung launches and foldable smartphone trends, these pre-order numbers prove that innovative form factors can achieve mainstream success when executed properly.
