Week one of the Galaxy Z pre-orders is over and we\u2019re now heading into week two with additional incentives to pick up a next-gen foldable. Last week<\/a>, you could get a free storage upgrade \u2013 and you still can.<\/p>\n

On top of that, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold7 comes with a $300 Amazon Gift Card. The phone may be the thinnest-ever horizontal foldable \u2013 it certainly is in the US market \u2013 and brings large displays (6.5\u201d cover, 8.0\u201d main), a 200MP main camera (plus 10MP 3x\/67mm tele and 12MP ultra-wide) and DeX capabilities.<\/p>\n

It\u2019s powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite in a 12\/512GB configuration for the price of a 256GB unit. What\u2019s not so great is the battery (4,400mAh capacity, 25W\/15W charging) and the lack of S Pen support.<\/p>\n

The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip7 comes with a $200 Amazon Gift Card. Samsung managed to keep the same pricing as last year\u2019s model \u2013 you can find a detailed Galaxy Z pricing breakdown here<\/a> \u2013 but part of that involved using the Exynos 2500 chipset over the pricey Snapdragon.<\/p>\n

The Z Flip7 also has larger displays (4.1\u201d cover, 6.9\u201d main) and is thinner than its predecessor, while also equipping a larger battery \u2013 almost as large as the Z Fold7 at 4,300mAh (with the same 25W\/15W charging). What\u2019s lacking is camera upgrades, the phone only really got HDR video support (as did the Fold).<\/p>\n


\n \"Samsung
\n <\/a><\/p>\n

To answer the need for cheaper foldables, Samsung built the Galaxy Z Flip7 FE. It\u2019s basically a Z Flip6 with a different chipset, last year\u2019s Exynos 2400, and less memory \u2013 the base configuration is 8\/128GB, but you get a free upgrade to the 8\/256GB unit during the pre-order period. And this week you also get a $100 Amazon Gift Card.<\/p>\n

The Z Flip7 FE is thicker, slower and has a smaller battery than the Z Flip7. That folder-shaped 3.4\u201d cover screen is a bit limiting and the 6.7\u201d inner screen is smaller. The 4,000mAh battery is smaller too. That said, you spend $200 less and get basically the same cameras as the Z Flip7.<\/p>\n

Meanwhile, the Nothing Phone (3) didn\u2019t get the best reception from fans, but maybe a free storage upgrade will help you look past its design. This is the first high-end Nothing phone and has a 6.67\u201d 1260p+ OLED display (LTPS), a 5,150mAh battery with 65W\/15W charging and four 50MP cameras. This includes a large 1\/1.3\u201d sensor in the main, a 3x periscope and an ultra-wide on the back, plus a selfie camera on the front.<\/p>\n


\n \"Nothing
\n <\/a><\/p>\n

Hold up. The OnePlus 13 has dropped to its lowest price in a while \u2013 $830 for a 16\/512GB unit or just $30 more than the Nothing. This comes with a better display, a 6.82\u201d 1440p+ LTPO panel, a proper flagship chipset, the Snapdragon 8 Elite, and a 6,000mAh battery with 80W\/50W charging. The rear cameras all have 50MP sensors \u2013 a 1\/1.43\u201d in the main, a bigger 1\/1.95\u201d in the 3x periscope (vs. 1\/2.75\u201d in the Nothing tele camera) and a 120\u00b0 ultra-wide.<\/p>\n


\n \"OnePlus
\n <\/a><\/p>\n

You can also get the OnePlus 13R for $300 less. It has an LTPO display too, a 6.78\u201d 1264p+ panel, and the Snapdragon 8 Gen 3 is actually faster than the 8s Gen 4 inside the Nothing. Not by much, but it\u2019s faster. The 6,000mAh battery with 80W wired-only charging is bigger too. The camera is not as good with a 50MP main (1\/1.56\u201d), 50MP with a 2x lens and an 8MP ultra-wide. Still, this costs $270 less than the Nothing flagship.<\/p>\n


\n \"OnePlus
\n <\/a><\/p>\n

The new Watch8 series from Samsung is in short supply for some reason. You can still pick up a Samsung Galaxy Watch8 (40mm, Bluetooth) with a $50 Amazon Gift Card.<\/p>\n


\n \"Samsung
\n <\/a><\/p>\n

Or a Samsung Galaxy Watch8 Classic (46mm, 4G) if you want a rotating bezel. Both have the new squircle design and the same screen size, 1.34\u201d, despite their different body sizes.<\/p>\n


\n \"Samsung
\n <\/a><\/p>\n

You can also pick up the Samsung Galaxy Watch7 for less than half the price of the Watch8. It has a round body and uses the same Exynos W1000 as the Watch8 models. The battery is slightly smaller, but only slightly (300mAh vs. 325mAh).<\/p>\n
