In just the past few days, a flood of leaks has revealed key details about the <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-galaxy-z-fold-7-3487224\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Galaxy Z Fold 7<\/a>, <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/samsung-galaxy-z-flip-7-3487895\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">Flip 7<\/a>, and Flip 7 FE, from their design to their specifications. Now, a fresh report has revealed additional information about the devices\u2019 IP rating, battery endurance, and other notable features.<\/p>\n<p>In the EU, manufacturers are required to provide an easy-to-read energy label for their products to help buyers choose more energy-efficient devices. For smartphones, this energy label includes supplementary details such as battery capacity, battery endurance, and IP rating, along with repairability and drop resistance scores. Tipster <a href=\"https:\/\/x.com\/MysteryLupin\/status\/1940514370301374681\" target=\"_blank\">Mystery Lupin<\/a> recently uncovered the energy label for the Galaxy Z Fold 7, and now the folks at <a href=\"https:\/\/www.ytechb.com\/exclusive-samsung-galaxy-z-flip-7-fe-and-fold-7-battery-endurance-rating-leak\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">YTECHB<\/a> have dug up similar labels for the Flip 7 and Flip 7 FE.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Galaxy Z Fold 7 leaked EU energy label\"  alt=\"Galaxy Z Fold 7 leaked EU energy label\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Galaxy-Z-Fold-7-leaked-EU-energy-label.jpg\"\/>Galaxy Z Fold 7<img class=\"e_ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 leaked EU energy label\"  alt=\"Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 leaked EU energy label\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Samsung-Galaxy-Z-Flip-7-leaked-EU-energy-label.jpg\"\/>Galaxy Z Flip 7<\/p>\n<p>According to the energy labels, all three devices will have an IP48 dust and water resistance rating, suggesting no improvement over last year\u2019s models. This is a bummer, especially since a rival model already <a href=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/vivo-x-fold-5-launch-3570802\/\" target=\"_blank\" rel=\"noopener\">offers an IP59 rating<\/a>. The flagship Galaxy Z Fold 7 could feature a rated battery capacity of 4,272mAh, with the battery expected to retain 80% charge for up to 2,000 charge cycles.<\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Galaxy Z Fold 7 leaked EU energy label details\"  alt=\"Galaxy Z Fold 7 leaked EU energy label details\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Galaxy-Z-Fold-7-leaked-EU-energy-label-details.jpg\"\/>Galaxy Z Fold 7<img class=\"e_ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Galaxy Z Flip 7 leaked EU energy label details\"  alt=\"Galaxy Z Flip 7 leaked EU energy label details\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Galaxy-Z-Flip-7-leaked-EU-energy-label-details.jpg\"\/>Galaxy Z Flip 7<img class=\"e_ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  title=\"Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE leaked EU energy label details\"  alt=\"Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE leaked EU energy label details\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/07\/Galaxy-Z-Flip-7-FE-leaked-EU-energy-label-details.jpg\"\/>Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE<\/p>\n<p>The Galaxy Z Flip 7 may feature a battery with a rated capacity of 4,174mAh and offer the same battery endurance as the high-end foldable. As indicated in previous leaks, the entry-level Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE could pack a smaller battery with a rated capacity of 3,887mAh, which may retain 80% of its charge for up to 1,700 cycles.<\/p>\n<p>The energy label awards all three devices with an A rating for repeated free-fall reliability, but only a C for repairability. As revealing as these energy labels may be, it\u2019s best to take the details with a grain of salt. With Samsung\u2019s Galaxy Unpacked event right around the corner, we won\u2019t have to wait long for official confirmation.<\/p>\n<p><a id=\"deal-large-6615\" class=\"e_l\">Reserve the next Galaxy for $50 Samsung Credit and a chance to win $5,000!<\/a><img class=\"e_ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\"  alt=\"Reserve the next Galaxy for $50 Samsung Credit and a chance to win $5,000!\" src=\"https:\/\/www.europesays.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/06\/custom_filename.jpg\"\/><\/p>\n<p>Reserve the next Galaxy for $50 Samsung Credit and a chance to win $5,000!<\/p>\n<p>Unpacked is coming.<\/p>\n<p>The next generation of Galaxy is coming!
