Samsung’s Galaxy Z Flip series has undergone several evolutionary stages as far as its cover display is concerned. The original Z Flip had a teeny-tiny display – just enough to show a few notification icons. The Z Flip3 (which is the second generation model) had enough for two lines of text, the same goes for the Z Flip4. Then the Z Flip5 and Z Flip6 expanded that to a larger 3.4” display – large enough to use apps, but still with massive bezels.

The upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 should bring the next – and likely last – evolution, an edge-to-edge screen. Here are some renders dug out from a leaked One UI 8 firmware by Android Authority:

Leaks give the size of the new cover display as 4” with the only dead space being the two camera lenses and the LED flash.
The Galaxy Z Flip7 will reportedly have a larger 6.85” inner display, up from 6.7” on the Z Flip6. The Z Flip7 reportedly will measure 166.6 x 75.2 x 6.9mm when unfolded, making it wider than the Z Flip6, which is 165.1 x 71.9 x 6.9mm. This, combined with the much thinner side bezels, promises a huge upgrade for the cover display. Meanwhile, the Z Fold7 will be super slim, going down from 5.6mm to 3.9mm unfolded.
The Z Flip7 is expected to have a mild 300mAh increase in battery capacity (charging will remain at 25W), the cameras should be the familiar 50MP wide and 12MP ultra-wide combo.
