@SamsungIndia @SamsungMobile After 4 months of continuous use, durability, hinge feel, and performance remain solid. Overall, the Fold 7 meaningfully reduces my need for a tablet and boosts productivity and reading/OTT consumption in a single device. (5/5)

@SamsungIndia @SamsungMobile For content consumption, the big AMOLED display makes OTT, YouTube, and long-form reading (Kindle, articles, reports) incredibly immersive. Battery holds up well for mixed usage, though heavy inner-screen sessions need a top-up. (4/5)

@SamsungIndia @SamsungMobile Light productivity is where it really shines: reviewing PPTs, editing Word/Excel files, reading PDFs, and multitasking with 2–3 apps feels smooth and genuinely useful. Drag-and-drop, split-screen, and S Pen support (optional) add real value. (3/5)

@SamsungIndia @SamsungMobile After 4 months with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 it is clear that this is the best blend of phone + mini-tablet I’ve used. The outer screen works great for quick tasks, while the inner display transforms email, browsing, and document reviews. (2/5)

Be prepared for more expensive flagships but it might not necessarily be a bad thing. Some trusted insiders and reports make me believe that the prices of smartphones are going up. Reason is plain and simple, the rising cost of components — in particular RAM and SoC. Which is

Sources said the latest round of price hikes is driven by rising memory component costs, broader supply chain pressures affecting other key components, and rupee’s depreciation against US dollar
