On the makers’ published figures, the Galaxy Z Flip7 wins on display size (6.9 in against 6.2 in) and storage (base) (256 GB against 128 GB). 4 gaps are borderline, differences most people would not notice: weight (162 g against 188 g) for the Galaxy S25, battery per charge (42.07 h against 37.27 h) for the Galaxy Z Flip7, claimed video playback (31 h against 29 h) for the Galaxy Z Flip7 and 3DMark Wild Life Extreme (5,664 against 4,373, both from 3DMark) for the Galaxy S25. The difference in battery capacity is below the threshold you would notice. Both state the same refresh rate, peak brightness, RAM, battery lifespan, fast charging and wireless charging. The other 34 rows have no threshold or no direction to judge by, so nobody wins them.
Specifications
A win is marked only where the figures can be ranked and the gap is one you could notice. A row the site has no threshold for says whether the two differ, and that it is not ranking them. = marks the same figure on both, ≠ not ranked a difference with no ranking. Every figure carries its source.
