Cover display (FlexWindow)4.1-inch Super AMOLED; 1048 × 948; 60/120 Hz; 2600 nits peak brightness

In this generation Samsung extended the outer screen edge to edge, widening what you can do without opening the phone: notifications, camera preview and apps.

ProcessorSamsung Exynos 2500

The Flip7 uses Samsung’s own Exynos 2500 rather than the Snapdragon 8 Elite for Galaxy found in the Fold7.

Samsung
Google Tensor G4; Titan M2 security coprocessor

It is the same chip as the Pixel 9 and Pixel 9 Pro XL; there is no performance difference.

Google
Memory and storage12 GB RAM; 256 or 512 GB

Samsung notes memory options may vary by market; available space is lower because of preloaded software.

Samsung
16 GB RAM; 128 GB, 256 GB, 512 GB or 1 TB storage

There is no card slot; storage and colour options vary by region.

Google
CamerasRear: 50 MP wide (ƒ/1.8, OIS, Dual Pixel AF) and 12 MP ultra-wide (ƒ/2.2, 123°); front: 10 MP (ƒ/2.2)

Battery and charging4300 mAh (typical), 4174 mAh (rated); about 50% in 30 minutes with a 25 W adapter and 3 A USB-C cable; Fast Wireless Charging 2.0; Wireless PowerShare

Wireless PowerShare lets the back of the phone charge accessories such as earbuds or a watch. Samsung notes charging speed depends on battery level and the adapter used.

Body and durabilityArmor FlexHinge; Armor Aluminum frame; Gorilla Glass Victus 2 on cover and back; IP48

The 4 in IP48 means protection against solid objects larger than 1 mm, not dust-tightness; the 8 means resistance to immersion in fresh water. Samsung describes the new hinge as thinner and restructured compared with the previous generation.

Display—6.3-inch (161 mm) Super Actua LTPO OLED; 1280 × 2856, 495 ppi, 20:9; HDR support

It is a higher-resolution panel in the same body as the Pixel 9; 495 ppi renders text and photo edges more sharply. Because the corners are rounded, the visible area is slightly smaller than the measured diagonal.

Google
Refresh rate—Smooth Display, 1–120 Hz (LTPO)

The LTPO panel drops as low as 1 Hz for static content and the always-on display to save power, and rises to 120 Hz when scrolling. Google notes 120 Hz is not available in every app.

Google
Brightness and contrast—Up to 2,000 nits (HDR) and up to 3,000 nits peak; >2,000,000:1 contrast

HDR brightness is measured with the whole screen lit and peak brightness with only 5% lit; the peak applies to small bright areas in sunlight.

Google
Cover glass and build—Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2 front and back (silky matte back); polished aluminium frame

The finishes are the reverse of the Pixel 9, which has a glossy back and a matte frame. The aluminium in the housing is 100% recycled.

Google
Durability—IP68 dust and water resistance (IEC 60529)

Google notes the protection can diminish with wear, repair or drops and that liquid damage voids the warranty.

Google
Main camera—50 MP Octa PD wide; f/1.68, 82° field of view, 1/1.31-inch sensor; optical + electronic stabilisation

Pro controls allow full 50 MP capture; the Pixel 9 only saves binned 12.5 MP photos. Optical quality is offered at 0.5x, 1x, 2x, 5x and 10x.

Google
Ultrawide camera—48 MP Quad PD; f/1.7, 123° field of view, 1/2.55-inch sensor, autofocus, Macro Focus Google
Telephoto camera—48 MP Quad PD; f/2.8, 22° field of view, 5x optical zoom, 1/2.55-inch sensor, optical stabilisation; Super Res Zoom up to 30x

Magnification beyond 5x is done in software; Google says 10x still gives near-optical quality. A multi-zone laser (LDAF) sensor assists focusing.

Google
Front camera—42 MP Dual PD with autofocus; f/2.2, 103° ultrawide Google
Video—Rear: 8K 30 fps with Video Boost, 4K and 1080p at 24/30/60 fps, 10-bit HDR, Super Res Zoom Video up to 20x, Night Sight Video; front: 4K 30/60 fps

Video Boost processes recorded video on Google’s cloud servers to improve colour, lighting and stabilisation, so the result is not available immediately and an internet connection is needed. 8K and Super Res Zoom Video are only available with Video Boost on.

Google
Battery—4,700 mAh typical (minimum 4,558 mAh); 24+ hours, up to 100 hours with Extreme Battery Saver

The battery matches the Pixel 9’s capacity. Figures come from pre-production tests in the US using a median user profile.

Google
Charging—Wired up to 27 W (about 55% in 30 minutes with the Google 45 W USB-C charger); Qi wireless charging, 21 W with Pixel Stand (2nd gen), 12 W with Qi EPP; Battery Share reverse wireless charging

No charger is included. 37 W wired charging is only on the larger Pixel 9 Pro XL.

Google
Wireless—Wi-Fi 7 (2.4/5/6 GHz, 2x2 + 2x2 MIMO; Wi-Fi 6 in India); Bluetooth 5.3 with dual antennas; NFC; Google Cast; ultra-wideband (UWB) chip

The UWB chip measures distance and direction to compatible devices and tags with centimetre-level precision; the standard Pixel 9 lacks it.

Google
Location—Dual-band GNSS: GPS, GLONASS, Galileo, BeiDou, QZSS, NavIC (GPS, GLONASS, Galileo on the US model) Google
Cellular and SIM—5G Sub-6 (rest-of-world model GEC77, Japan GWVK6 with FeliCa); the US model GR83Y adds mmWave; single nano-SIM + eSIM Google
Sensors—Proximity, ambient light, accelerometer, gyrometer, magnetometer, barometer, temperature sensor; spectral and flicker sensor

The rear temperature sensor measures surface temperatures of objects through the Thermometer app; the standard Pixel 9 lacks it.

Google
USB and audio—USB-C 3.2; stereo speakers, three microphones, audio zoom Google
Software and updates—Launched with Android 14; seven years of OS, security and Pixel Drop updates

The period counts from the first sale date on the US Google Store. Satellite SOS works only in the US.

Google
Dimensions and weight—152.8 × 72.0 × 8.5 mm; 199 g

The size matches the Pixel 9; it weighs 1 g more.

Google
Colours and warranty—Obsidian, Porcelain, Hazel, Rose Quartz; one-year warranty in the US, Canada, Japan and some Asian countries, two years in EU countries and the UK Google
