This Galaxy Z Fold 7 model offers a much longer warranty
Ryan Haines / Android Authority TL;DR Samsung has launched the Galaxy Z Fold 7 Enterprise Edition in Europe. The phone comes with a three-year manufacturer's warranty instead of the standard two-year warranty. The device is otherwise identical to the standard Galaxy Z Fold 7. Samsung launched the Galaxy Z Fold 7 last month, and it offers a more durable folding screen than previous models. What if you want peace of mind regarding any issues, though? Well, the company offers Samsung Care Plus, but it's also offering a specific model. Samsung has just announced the Galaxy Z Fold 7 Enterprise Edition (h/t: SammyGuru), starting in Germany. This model comes with a three-year manufacturer's warranty, which is an extra year over the standard two-year warranty in Europe. That should give you peace of mind if you're worried about hardware issues down the line. This model also comes with one year of Knox Suite for device management. Once that first year has elapsed, Samsung's fine print notes that you'll need to pay for one, two, or three years, although there's no automatic renewal. Otherwise, the phone comes with seven years of software updates, much like the standard device. Do you think foldable phones are more durable in 2025? 0 votes Yes, they are NaN % Yes, but still not durable enough NaN % No, they aren't NaN % The Galaxy Z Fold 7 Enterprise Edition also features the same hardware as the standard Fold 7. That means you can expect a super-slim and light design, coming in at 8.9mm and weighing 215 grams. The phone also offers a Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy processor, a 4,400mAh battery with 25W wired charging (and 15W wireless charging), a 6.5-inch cover screen (21:9), and an eight-inch folding screen. Samsung still offers an IP48 rating, though, which means it's not dust-resistant. However, the phone is now rated for 500,000 folds compared to 200,000 folds before. Furthermore, Samsung Display told us that the folding screen is more durable in extreme temperatures. There's no word on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 Enterprise Edition's price, and it's unclear if this specific model will come to the US. Nevertheless, this extended warranty is welcome news for corporate/enterprise users. Follow

Samsung launches Galaxy Z Fold7 Enterprise Edition with premium perks
The Galaxy Z Fold7 has so far been Samsung's most successful foldable smartphone ever, based on pre-order numbers and first-week sales, at least in some markets. Now, the company is expanding the device's availability, but not geographically - it's launched the Galaxy Z Fold7 Enterprise Edition. Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 This is currently only available in Germany but will undoubtedly spread across the world in the coming days and weeks. The Enterprise Edition is identical in specs to the non-Enterprise model, but comes with extra perks. For example, in Germany, the Fold7 Enterprise Edition has three years of warranty instead of the two that the non-Enterprise model gets, and the businesses who purchase one will also receive one year of Samsung Knox Suite for device management for free. The downside is that, of course, you need to be a business to buy one of these, but there's also the fact that the Enterprise Edition is only offered in the Jetblack colorway, with 512GB of storage. There are no other versions. If you're interested in the Galaxy Z Fold7, don't miss our comprehensive in-depth written review.

HEDNO Advances Grid Modernization with Itron Intelligent Edge Solution in Greece
LIBERTY LAKE, Wash., June 24, 2025 (GLOBE NEWSWIRE) -- Itron, Inc. (NASDAQ: ITRI), which is innovating new ways for utilities and cities to manage energy and water, signed a contract on May 28, 2025 with Hellenic Electricity Distribution Network Operator S.A. ( HEDNO ), the sole electricity Distribution System Operator in Greece and one of the largest in Europe, to lay the foundation for grid edge intelligence. Itron's Grid Edge Intelligence portfolio will enable HEDNO to improve its customers' experience with enhanced energy consumption insights and modernize its electric grid to advance its long-term goals, which include integrating more distributed energy resources and achieving net-zero emissions by 2050. HEDNO will deploy Itron's Enterprise Edition (IEE) Meter Data Management (MDM) system, which will manage 7.7 million meters, and Itron's Utility IQ headend system to manage nearly 1 million new intelligent narrowband-IoT (NB-IoT) cellular smart meters designed and manufactured by Itron technology partner ZIV Automation, a provider of advanced digital solutions for power grids. These solutions will enable HEDNO to improve operational efficiency while enhancing customer service through increased visibility into energy consumption, faster resolution of issues and flexible billing options. Once deployed, HEDNO will gain immediate access to entire meter datasets, enabling more accurate detection and measurement of technical and non-technical losses, improved revenue collection, powerful asset management, secure data sharing and predictive maintenance capabilities. Itron's IEE MDM system will connect with HEDNO's multiple headend and customer information systems, allowing the utility to collect, process, store and analyze smart device data, device events and alarms. As a hosted software-as-a-service (SaaS) solution, Itron's system ensures reliable availability, allowing HEDNO to focus on business operations while realizing operational and cost-saving benefits more quickly. The future-proof solution will enable HEDNO to easily adopt new grid edge use cases over time. IEE MDM is pre-integrated with Itron's Intelligent Edge Operating System (IEOS), a platform-as-a-service that simplifies integration and establishes a strong foundation for advanced grid capabilities like distributed intelligence, energy forecasting, distributed energy resource management, advanced analytics and more. HEDNO, already utilizing the Azure cloud, can also benefit from Itron's strategic collaboration with Microsoft to integrate generative AI technologies – starting with Microsoft Azure OpenAI, part of Azure AI Foundry – into Itron's IEOS, further future proofing Itron's solution. 'Smart Metering is the most important project for the modernisation of the Greek electricity market. For the scope of this project, Itron has been assigned the supply of the Meter Data Management System, which will serve as the central system for the collection, storage, processing and advanced analysis of data from all meters. This system, the most widely used globally for meter data management, will enable us to offer significantly enhanced digital service capabilities to electricity suppliers, consumers and prosumers. At HEDNO, we remain committed to our promise of modernizing the Greek electricity energy market,' said Anastasios Manos, HEDNO CEO. 'Itron is proud to be a part of this project to enable a modernized electric grid in Greece with our proven MDM and headend systems, which each manage more than 50 million endpoints globally. Together with HEDNO and ZIV, we're creating a scalable foundation to meet HEDNO's evolving operational needs,' said Don Reeves, senior vice president of Outcomes at Itron.
