Samsung’s foldable game is heating up, and the next addition might just be a more affordable clamshell model. Long rumored as the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, the budget-friendly foldable may actually debut under a different name — Galaxy Z Flip Xe. Recent certifications and leaks have thrown more light on this possible name change and the features we can expect.
Name
The biggest surprise right now is the potential name change. A device with model number SM-F761, previously linked to the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, has shown up again — this time on an eSIM compatibility listing, where it’s referred to as the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip Xe.
This same model number also surfaced on the GSMA IMEI database back in December 2024. While these listings give some insight into what’s coming, they don’t guarantee the final marketing name. Samsung has a history of keeping product names close to the chest until official announcements, so take this with a grain of salt for now.
Performance
If earlier leaks are accurate, the Galaxy Z Flip Xe (or Z Flip 7 FE, depending on the final name) will be powered by Samsung’s in-house Exynos 2400e chipset. This processor, along with 8GB of RAM, is expected to deliver smooth multitasking and decent gaming capabilities. While not top-tier, it’s a solid offering for a foldable aimed at a more budget-conscious audience.
Display
In terms of screen size, Samsung seems to be sticking to the familiar formula. The device is likely to feature a 6.7-inch main foldable display and a 3.4-inch cover screen — identical to what we saw on the Galaxy Z Flip 6. That’s a smart move, retaining the practical usability of the outer display without sacrificing the signature compact design.
Cameras
The Z Flip Xe is expected to come with a dual rear camera setup. That includes a 12-megapixel primary camera and a 12-megapixel ultra-wide sensor — a tried-and-tested combo for this style of phone. On the front, a 10-megapixel selfie camera should handle your video calls and social media snaps just fine.
It’s unlikely we’ll see major camera upgrades here, which makes sense for a model focused more on the foldable experience than photography innovation.
Battery and Charging
For power, the foldable is rumored to house a 3,700mAh battery, the same size used in its predecessors. It should be enough for a full day of moderate use. The device will likely support 25W wired fast charging, which is a decent offering for a foldable at this price point.
Dimensions and Build
According to leaks, the Galaxy Z Flip Xe will measure 71.9×165.2×6.9mm when unfolded, and 71.9×84.9×15.9/17.1mm when folded. That means it should be just as slim and pocketable as previous models — perfect for those who want a foldable phone without the bulk.
Price and Launch
Perhaps the most attractive part of this upcoming model is the price. The Z Flip Xe is expected to launch under EUR 1,000, which converts to around Rs. 92,000. That would make it Samsung’s most affordable foldable yet, widening access to foldable tech beyond premium buyers.
The phone is expected to launch alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Fold 7, likely sometime mid-2025. With more appearances on certification sites and leaks piling up, we could be looking at an official announcement in the coming weeks.
