TL;DR<\/p>\n

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 is apparently receiving more pre-orders than the Galaxy Z Flip 7 in Korea.
\nThis is reportedly the first time the Fold model has been more popular than the Flip device.
\nSamsung\u2019s newest Fold offers a super-thin and light design, larger screens, and a powerful Snapdragon 8 Elite chip.<\/p>\n

Samsung\u2019s Galaxy Z Flip series has traditionally been its most popular foldable phone<\/a>, accounting for most pre-orders and sales over the years. However, it looks like things have tentatively changed in 2025.<\/p>\n

FNN News<\/a> reports that the Galaxy Z Fold 7<\/a> is receiving more pre-orders than the Galaxy Z Flip 7<\/a> in Korea. This is reportedly the first time the Fold model has been more popular than the Flip.<\/p>\n

More specifically, the Korean website reports that the Fold 7 accounted for 60% of preorders versus the Flip 7\u2019s 40%. By contrast, the Flip 6 reportedly accounted for 60% of pre-orders last year versus the Fold 6\u2019s 40%. Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Flip 5 apparently accounted for 70% of preorders in the market versus the Fold 5\u2019s 30%.<\/p>\n

Analysts are reportedly forecasting that Galaxy Z7 series pre-orders could surpass the 1.02 million record set by the Galaxy Z5 series. Of course, it\u2019s worth noting that this forecast applies to the Korean market. Nevertheless, I\u2019m keen to see whether the Galaxy Z Fold 7 can maintain this momentum throughout the year or if the Z Flip 7 will catch up after general sales.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s not a total surprise to hear that the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is apparently performing well at this stage, though. The Z Fold 7 has a dramatically thin and light design compared to the Z Fold 6. In fact, it\u2019s the lightest book-style foldable phone on the market while also being among the thinnest models. So we can understand why many people may have decided to hop on the Fold bandwagon.<\/p>\n
