The latest Galaxy S series is now available, but Samsung’s work continues. Another major product launch focusing on foldable devices is expected later this year.
Firmware development for the upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 7 is now confirmed. Samsung is currently developing firmware for the next generation Flip phone for the European market. Firmware for other regions, as well as the Galaxy Z Fold 7, are likely also in development.
It remains to be seen whether the Galaxy Z Flip 7 will launch with One UI 7 or One UI 7.1, but historically, it is likely to be the latter. Each flagship launch typically introduces a minor One UI update.
Samsung’s Plans for the Coming Year
The Galaxy Z Flip 7 may not be significantly different from its predecessor. Early information suggests that it may not feature extensive changes.
However, Samsung has unveiled plans for the year. They previewed a dual-hinge foldable phone earlier this year.
Therefore, the next Unpacked event could still offer some surprises, even if the Galaxy Z Flip 7 largely retains its current design. The most important news is that Samsung has begun firmware development for the next generation Galaxy Z Flip 7.
Given the features of One UI 7, it will be interesting to see how Samsung improves the 2025 foldable series and what Galaxy AI enhancements are in store. Further updates will be provided as they become available.
The commencement of firmware development signals the approaching launch of the next-generation foldable phone. We will continue to monitor the updates to see what it brings in the coming months.
