Here’s When the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 Will Probably Launch

There are conflicting reports about whether the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 will launch in early July or mid-July. This leaves us with two possible timelines, which can help us estimate when reservations might open and when the new foldables will actually hit store shelves. What seems more certain is that the event could be held in New York.

When will the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 launch actually?

Traditionally, Samsung has unveiled its new foldables on Wednesdays, and with two potential timelines in mind, it doesn’t take much to make an educated guess. There are two possible dates for the Unpacked event: July 9 and July 16. Both of which fall on a Wednesday.

If Samsung launches the Galaxy Z Fold 7 and Flip 7 on July 9, reservations could begin about two weeks earlier, likely between June 23 and 25. This timeline seems quite plausible based on past patterns. As for retail availability, we could expect the devices to hit store shelves between July 23 and 25. But that’s only if the launch happens on July 9.

• Reservations (expected): June 23-25
• Launch (expected): July 9
• Retail availability (expected): July 23-25

Now, let’s consider the mid-July timeline. If the launch is set for July 16 (also a Wednesday), reservations would likely open between July 1 and 3, placing the retail release somewhere between July 30 and August 1.

• Reservations (expected): July 1-3
• Launch (expected): July 16
• Retail availability (expected): July 30-August 1

Typically, reservations start around two weeks before the official announcement, followed by a pre-order period that lasts another two weeks. After that, the devices go on general sale without the usual pre-order perks. These perks often include bonus items, free storage upgrades, and other incentives. And we expect similar offers this time around.

While the exact date is still up in the air, we’re hoping Samsung sticks to the earlier timeline, with Unpacked taking place on July 9. Unpacked. Samsung is most likely to debut the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Flip 7 as well as the Galaxy Watch 8 series during the event.
