Hey @SamsungMobile, I have some feature suggestions for the upcoming Z Fold series that I believe could enhance the user experience. 

 

1. Gesture-Controlled Volume Button:

A flat, gesture-sensitive volume button where users can slide up or down to adjust the volume, similar to how the power button integrates the fingerprint sensor.

The button could still be physically pressable for added flexibility.

Adding customizable single and double-tap actions (e.g., app shortcuts or quick commands) would make it even more functional.

 

2. Built-in S Pen:

Integrating an internal S Pen slot would solve a real issue for users like me who don’t like using phone pouches just to carry the S Pen.

Offering two versions—one with an S Pen and one without—could cater to different budgets and preferences.

 

3. Refined Camera Design:

The under-display camera (UDC) on the unfolded inner screen is fantastic and adds to the seamless design.

 

However, the visible hole-punch camera on the outer screen breaks the uniform aesthetic. It would be amazing if Samsung could introduce an under-display camera on the outer screen as well, creating a clean, uninterrupted look on both displays.

I truly believe these improvements would make the Z Fold 7 stand out even more and reinforce Samsung's leadership in foldable innovation.

 

Thank you for considering these suggestions. I’m excited to see what’s next for the Fold series!

 

Best regards,

Jonah Obiman

Right! Can you imagine it in your pocket with keys. That won't be covered under a warranty.

I'm sorry, but that design is just asking for trouble. Both folds should fold in with the display enclosed on the inside of the hinges, period. For three thousand dollars that's the least they should have done.

No email, but I saw a report the other day about it just being the Fold 7, not an Ultra model.

I just signed up for the preorder for the Z Fold 7, bummed that the S25U wasn't listed for trade-in.

I am hoping that this was an oversight. This is the first year I am interested in getting the Fold, the only way for me to afford that device is to trade in my S25U. 

Say it anit so!
