Buying call

Skip the Galaxy Z Flip7 new, because the newer Galaxy Z Flip8 adds a Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 and a lighter 180 g body. The Flip7 has a 4.1-inch edge-to-edge cover screen and a 6.9-inch inner display, and it lasted 12 h 24 min in one battery test. Buy it only renewed or deeply discounted if you want that cover screen for less. The cons are its Exynos 2500, 25W charging that reached 55% in 30 minutes in one test, no telephoto lens and IP48 dust protection.
