To put things simply, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is a hit. After years of complaints about its incremental refinements, Samsung really went all out this time, delivering a significant design change, along with new hardware. While the slim design will be the thing that’s talked about most, Samsung also improved the cameras on the phone as well, utilizing new hardware and also some AI.

Exactly what people have been asking for

Samsung shared insight on why the cameras on the Galaxy Z Fold 7 are so good, and the piece of hardware that stands out most is the new 200MP sensor used for the main camera. Of course, it’s not all about hardware this time around, with Samsung also crediting its “ProVisual Engine boasting more than 160 AI-powered imaging technologies.”

Now, despite the camera being new for the Galaxy Z Fold 7, it’s a piece of hardware that we’ve seen before, because it is the same camera found in the Galaxy S25 Ultra. In addition, Samsung also highlights the 12MP ultrawide camera found on the Z Fold 7 as well, sharing that this camera delivers better image quality thanks to its ability to autofocus.

The front-facing camera’s 100-degree angle makes it possible to get everyone in the shot now without a huge struggle, and the brand also makes use of its “Dual Camera Depth Calibration” technology, which allows cameras to seamlessly switch from one lens to another when needed in order to get the clearest images possible.

As you can imagine, Samsung also focused its efforts in improving nighttime photos and videos as well, because that’s where most cameras tend to struggle. With the Galaxy Z Fold 7, you get crisper images with less pixelation thanks to Samsung’s AI tech, which is really putting in some work in order to achieve these new enhanced levels of photography and videography.

This really is the best camera experience that you’ll get from any Samsung foldable phone. While preorder promotions have now come and gone, you can still get a pretty good deal on the phone if you’re looking to buy one. Amazon and other retailers are now offering up to a $200 gift card when you purchase the phone, which is quite a good deal.
