Samsung Expects Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 to Break Sales Records—But Flip 7 FE May Fall Flat
Samsung is betting big on its next-generation foldable lineup. According to new reports out of Korea, the tech giant is forecasting double-digit growth for its upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Z Flip 7 models—an ambitious leap following a year of lukewarm reception for foldables.
With aggressive production targets and strong pre-order momentum, Samsung appears more confident than ever in its foldable future. But while the Fold 7 and Flip 7 shine, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE might not receive the same enthusiasm.
Strong Demand Drives Higher Production Goals
As reported by The Elec, Samsung is planning to ship over 2 million units each of the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7. That’s a 9–10% increase over last year’s numbers, with a production plan of:
2.4 million units for the Galaxy Z Fold 7
2.3 million units for the Galaxy Z Flip 7
These targets reflect renewed momentum in Samsung’s foldables business. Insiders say the numbers are still flexible—Samsung may increase them further depending on how pre-orders perform, which already show double-digit growth, especially for the Fold 7.
That’s a significant shift from 2024, when Samsung's foldables struggled to capture mainstream interest despite advancements in design and durability.
Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE: A Footnote, Not a Flagship
While Samsung is pushing its flagship foldables into the spotlight, the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE is being treated more cautiously. The company reportedly plans to produce just 700,000 units of the FE variant—less than one-third the volume of its premium siblings.
Early reactions suggest why: priced at $899, the Flip 7 FE is being labeled overpriced and underwhelming. It received minimal attention during Samsung’s launch event, and initial plans to manufacture 1.6 million units have been cut by more than half.
It’s clear that Samsung expects limited market interest, and the Flip 7 FE may be aimed at niche or budget-conscious users rather than the mainstream foldable crowd.
Galaxy Z TriFold: Ambition in Limited Supply
Adding to the intrigue, Samsung reportedly plans to launch the Galaxy Z TriFold—its first tri-folding device. But with a production run of just 100,000 units, this futuristic phone will likely be region-restricted and highly exclusive.
The TriFold may serve more as a proof of concept than a mass-market product, introducing a new form factor without the pressure of high expectations. Given the complexity and price point of such a device, a cautious rollout seems wise.
With the arrival of the Fold 7 and Flip 7, many users will be upgrading their phones—and that’s where Smart Transfer becomes essential. This third-party phone clone and device clone app makes transitioning to a new device fast, secure, and effortless.

Samsung’s strategy for 2025 is clear: double down on its flagship foldables, cautiously experiment with new form factors, and test the waters with lower-cost alternatives. While the Fold 7 and Flip 7 are set to thrive, the Flip 7 FE may serve as a quiet experiment in value engineering.
And as users begin their upgrade journeys, tools like Smart Transfer will be key in ensuring a smooth, stress-free transition.
