Samsung says the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold7 will be the thinnest and lightest foldable yet
Last week, Samsung teased the Galaxy Z Fold7 and claimed it would offer "an Ultra-experience that goes beyond a simple list of upgraded features." Today, the Korean brand dropped another teaser, telling us the Galaxy Z Fold7 is "built to last."
Additionally, Samsung said the Galaxy Z Fold7 is the "thinnest, lightest and most advanced foldable yet" without providing further details. While Samsung didn't explicitly mention the Galaxy Z Fold7, the teaser video, included below, confirms that Samsung is referring to the book-style foldable and not the clamshell Galaxy Z Flip7.
There's no word from Samsung yet about when it will launch the 2025 foldables, but rumors claim these smartphones will be unveiled in mid-July.

Motorola Razr+ 2025 in for review
We did the Motorola Razr 60 Ultra review, and the Razr 2025 review is underway. Now it's time to welcome the third and final member of the series - the Razr+ 2025, which is exclusive to North America and doesn't have a global version unlike its siblings. Motorola Razr+ 2025 This one sits in the middle of the pack, below the Ultra, above the vanilla. Indeed, it packs some superior specs to the regular Razr 2025 in most categories. The SoC is a more powerful Snapdragon 8s Gen 3 with more RAM (12GB vs 8GB). It lacks an ultrawide but offers a 50MP 2x zoom instead. Both displays are better - the inner one has 165Hz refresh rate, while the cover screen is larger at 4 inches vs 3.6 inches. Where the Razr+ 2025 is below its counterparts is in the battery capacity - it's 4,000mAh vs the 4,500mAh on the vanilla and 4,700mAh on the Ultra. Our Razr+ 2025 features the Mocha Mousse paint job. There're also Hot Pink, Peach Fuzz, Spring Green, and Midnight Blue versions. There's a single 12/256GB config to choose from, and it ships with a USB-C cable. The Razr+ 2025 is $799 at the time of this article - down from $999. We've said it time and time again, but Motorola is truly in a league of its own when it comes to phone colors. The Razr+ 2025 looks unique. It feels great too, with a very grippy leather-like finish on the back panel. The hinge is perfectly weighed - not too firm, but it's not soft and vague. Top marks on hardware! Motorola Razr+ 2025 in Mocha Mousse There's also something to be said of Motorola's take on Android. Some of us would go as far as calling it the best Android skin there is, thanks to pixel-perfect scaling throughout the OS, and lovely visuals. On the other hand we need to mention a gripe we have with the Razr+ 2025. Its display came in a Neutral color profile by default, and it's lifeless - very desaturated and dull. Not a big issue, though - you can put the screen in a Vivid mode to rectify this. Interestingly, the Razr 2025 came in Vivid by default. Our review is underway so stay tuned!

Honor Magic V5 could debut with striking new color as Galaxy Z Fold 7 rivalry heats up
Referential image of the Honor Magic V3. | Image credit — PhoneArena Honor is expected to launch its next foldable phone, the Magic V5, later this month, and new leaks suggest it could arrive with a new color option that might catch some attention. According to a tipster on Weibo, the device is rumored to come in four color variants: Velvet Black, Snow White, Tundra Green, and a brand-new Silk Gold finish. Tipster claims the Honor Magic V5 foldable will sport a new gold color option . | Image credit — Weibo The first three colorways match those of last year's Magic V3, but the addition of gold could be a fresh move by Honor to give the device a more premium appearance. While color alone won't determine a phone's success, it can help a product stand out in a competitive market, especially as more brands start offering similar foldable designs. The Honor Magic V5 is rumored to skip the "V4" name and jump directly to V5. According to early reports, the device could be one of the thinnest foldables yet, with a folded thickness of under 9mm. If accurate, this would make it slightly slimmer than the latest Oppo Find N5, which measures 8.93mm when folded. The Magic V3 already offered a 5150mAh battery with 66W fast charging and solid wireless charging support, so this year's model could improve on that without sacrificing slimness. The timing of the Magic V5's release puts it right up against the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7, which is also expected to be revealed in July. Samsung's next foldable is rumored to bring modest design changes and upgraded internals, but so far, there have been no major leaks pointing to bold new colors or significant changes in appearance. That's where the Silk Gold color on the Magic V5 might give Honor a visual edge, even if just for initial impressions. While Samsung continues to lead the global foldables market, Honor has been quietly gaining ground, especially in the ultra-thin segment. Whether the Magic V5 can compete on performance remains to be seen, but a slimmer design, larger battery, and refreshed styling suggest Honor is aiming to push its foldable series forward in both form and function. We'll be watching closely as the official launch approaches.
