    What customers dislike about Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 (12GB + 256GB)?

    • The phone and processor (Exynos 2500) can get warm, especially during gaming, filming videos, or using DeX mode.
    • Cover screen software is limited and restrictive; some actions still require opening the main screen, a significant drawback compared to competitors.
    • Battery life, while improved in capacity from its predecessor, still typically only lasts one full day with normal use and may need an early evening top-off for heavy users.
    • Charging speeds are considered slow (25W wired) compared to many non-folding flagship phones.
    • Lacks a telephoto lens, meaning zoom shots beyond 2x result in a loss of detail and quality.
    • Inner screen is more delicate than a traditional glass slab phone and can be susceptible to scratches or crease-related issues over long-term use.
    • Not officially dust resistant, which poses a risk to the hinge mechanism.
    • Camera performance, while decent, is not on par with other flagship phones in the same price range, particularly in low-light situations.
    • The phone is expensive, and some users feel the build materials don't fully justify the premium cost.
    • Some basic functions like customizing quick settings on the outer screen or connecting to a new Wi-Fi network require the phone to be opened.
