Samsung’s next-generation foldable phones, the Galaxy Z Fold 7, Galaxy Z Flip 7, and Flip 7 FE, received 210,000 pre-orders in India within just 48 hours of their launch. This figure marks the fastest sales growth of any foldable model from the South Korean tech giant to date. The company emphasizes that younger users’ interest in premium phones is a key factor in this rise.

Demand for foldable Samsung models has increased

With the new Z series models, Samsung is focusing not only on foldable display technology but also on an AI-powered user experience. The devices come out of the box with Android 16 and One UI 8.

This interface features Google Gemini Live integration and Samsung’s new productivity tools, making AI support accessible to users, meeting their daily needs. Samsung states that this transformation is no longer a luxury, but a basic necessity.

The new models also offer more advanced security features than previous generations. Integrated into the Knox security infrastructure, KEEP (Knox Enhanced Encrypted Protection) prioritizes the protection of user data through controls such as app-based encryption and screen sharing. These measures make the Galaxy Z Fold particularly appealing to businesses and privacy-conscious users.

In the increasingly competitive foldable device market, Samsung has quickly responded to consumer demands by balancing artificial intelligence, security, and performance. 48-hour pre-order data reveals a strong user response to this strategy.
