Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 leak reveals 40+ HOURS of battery life & military-grade durability! But the IP48 rating & repairability will shock you. Check it out!
Samsung is all set to unveil its next-generation foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold 7, at the Galaxy Unpacked event on July 9. However, ahead of the official reveal, a leak from the European Product Registry for Energy Labelling (EPREL) has uncovered some major details about the phone’s battery life, durability, and more.
The leak, shared by tipster @MysteryLupin on X, includes the EU-mandated energy label that rates products for energy use, battery performance, drop resistance, water resistance, and repairability. Here’s a detailed look at what’s been revealed.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 Battery and Durability Specs
According to the leaked label, the Galaxy Z Fold 7 is equipped with a 4,400mAh battery, which is a slight upgrade over previous models. The phone reportedly delivers up to 40 hours and 28 minutes of usage on a single charge.
- Battery Capacity: 4,400mAh
- Battery Lifespan: Retains 80% after 2,000 charging cycles
- Charging: 25W wired fast charging
- Energy Efficiency: Rated Class B, showing improved power management
This long battery life is said to be supported by the Snapdragon 8 Gen 4 Elite chip and Samsung’s optimized One UI 8.0, running on Android 16.
What makes this foldable stand out is its durability score. The device has received a Class A rating for drop resistance, which is impressive for such a slim phone.
- Folded Thickness: 8.9mm
- Unfolded Thickness: 3.9mm
- Drop Resistance: Class A (High)
- Water and Dust Resistance: IP48 (Same as Z Fold 6)
- Repairability Rating: Class C (Below Average)
Despite its sleek form factor, it manages to beat many foldables in durability. However, the IP48 rating hasn’t improved, staying behind competitors like the Vivo X Fold5 which boasts an IP59 rating. Also, the repairability is not great, likely due to the foldable’s complex internal design.

The leaked EPREL document hints at a foldable phone that’s powerful, durable, and energy-efficient. While the IP48 rating and repairability score may disappoint some users, the battery life, slimmer body, and camera upgrade could win over many.
