Table of Contents
leaked European Union energy labels are giving consumers a sneak peek at the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, revealing key details about their battery performance, durability, and repairability. The labels, uncovered by YTechB, offer insights into what users can expect from these highly anticipated foldable smartphones.
Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Z Flip 7 FE: Key Specs Unveiled
The EU’s Energy label provides a standardized way to compare the energy efficiency and performance of electronic devices. For the Galaxy Z Flip 7 series, the labels highlight several significant features:
- Dust and Water Resistance: Both phones boast an IP48 rating, indicating protection against dust and water.
- Free-Fall Reliability: Impressively, both models achieve a Class A rating for free-fall reliability, suggesting robust resistance to damage from drops.
- Repairability: Both phones earned a Class C rating for repairability.
- Energy efficiency: both phones have Class B energy efficiency.
Did You Know? IP48 rating means the device is protected from immersion in fresh water wiht a depth of more than 1 meter for a duration of more than 30 minutes,and is dust resistant.
Battery Performance: A Tale of Two Flips
One of the most significant differences between the two models lies in their battery performance:
- Galaxy Z Flip 7: Rated to last 42 hours and 4 minutes on a single charge. The battery is expected to retain at least 80% of its rated capacity for up to 2,000 charge cycles.
- Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE: Offers a slightly shorter battery life of 37 hours on a single charge. Its battery is projected to maintain at least 80% capacity for 1,700 charge cycles.
This suggests that the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE not only has a smaller battery but also perhaps uses a battery of a slightly lower grade than its counterpart.
Pro Tip: To maximize your smartphone’s battery life, consider adjusting screen brightness, disabling unnecessary background app refresh, and utilizing power-saving modes.
Durability and Repairability: Impressive Ratings for Foldable Devices
Despite their complex design, featuring clamshell form factors, intricate hinges, and foldable displays, both the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Z Flip 7 FE have achieved a Class A rating for free-fall reliability and a Class C rating for repairability. This is especially noteworthy, as foldable phones are often perceived as being more fragile than conventional smartphones.
