- Samsung's long-rumored Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE is supposedly "confirmed" in a recent leak on social media.
- The device is supposedly preparing to launch alongside Samsung's flagship foldables this summer "globally."
- Rumors claim the phone will see the Exynos 2400 SoC, a two-year-old chip which was previously rumored for the device.
- A rendering leak for the Flip 7 FE suggests it will look like the Flip 6, and it might even sport its same display tech.
Here's a Samsung rumor to kick off your week, and it's about the company's (long-alleged) Fan Edition clamshell foldable.
The rumors today (June 23) stem from X tipster PandaFlash, who claims that "it's 100% confirmed" that Samsung will launch a Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE. According to their post, this (ideally) cheaper Flip FE will launch alongside Samsung's upcoming flagship duo: the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and the Galaxy Z Fold 7. The replies to the rumor diverged into speculation about the phone's supposed chip of choice.
The tipster's response claims the Flip 7 FE will feature Samsung's Exynos 2400 SoC—something we've heard previously last year. It's worth mentioning that this is a chip from 2023, and was notably slower than Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Gen 3.
What's more, the Flip 7 FE is supposedly gearing up for a "global" launch, which should place it everywhere the flagship duo will be.
Flipping the Script on FE?

We've had rumors about a Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE for almost a year now, and they've only continued, with new ones speculating on its display. A display expert alleged that Samsung could utilize its screen from the Galaxy Z Flip 6 on the upcoming Flip 7 FE variation. Of course, putting "FE" on a device typically means there will be an area or two with cutbacks. However, it seems that Samsung might not cut back on its display for the FE, giving consumers a flagship experience in that regard.
In March, renderings of the alleged Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE surfaced, and it pretty much rocked a design we've all seen before. The tab-reminiscent indent for the cameras, there's a chance the Flip FE will look like the Flip 6. Rumors purported the phone could have a 3.4-inch cover display and a 6.7-inch internal screen.
Those cameras could also be 50MP and 12MP.
There hasn't been much else about the Flip 7 FE, especially amid the Flip 7 and Fold 7 leaks recently. Both foldables could see bigger screens and slimmer form factors when they launch later this summer.
