With Samsung’s Unpacked event happening this week, here’s my wishlist for new/better features on the Flip’s 7th installment (as a series enthusiast).
5: A Full Cover Screen
This one is basically a freebie to Samsung since every leak that we have seen so far of the Flip 7 as well as its cases shows this feature. Nonetheless, I am so glad it’s here because I was never a fan of the ugly manila folder cutout design. In fact, that folder shape was the reason why I skipped over the Flip 5. I would not have even bought the Flip 6 were it not for my Flip 4 breaking & not being able to fix it in Japan due to having bought it in America.
4: Internal Magsafe Ring
I’m by no means an Apple fan but, credit where credit is due, magsafe is great. While Samsung has made the back of the Flip phones somewhat magnetic, they are not fully compatible with magsafe accessories. While this can be somewhat alleviated by buying a magsafe case, this is not a full solution. Unfortunately, cases have always been a weak point for the Flip series. With the hinge being considered the most vulnerable part of these somewhat delicate phones, & many cases not covering the hinge or only partially covering it, it has always been a pain point to find a case with both a magsafe ring AND hinge protection. Even among those that can be found for the Flip 6, a good deal of them have hinges which swing upward when the phone is fully opened, thereby covering part of the cover screen. This is not ideal when using the cover screen for filming with the back camera. With this being an issue on the Flip 6, I can’t imagine it would get much better with the Flip 7 having a much larger outer display. Samsung should take the initiative to put in a proper magsafe magnet ring, even if it nneeds to be a vaguely squirqle shape like the Watch 8 in order to avoid copyright/trademark infringement allegations from Apple. I’m sure Samsung would make up for any cost by having fewer phones to repair or replace since a lot of people seem to struggle with the current weak magnets falling off of actual magsafe accessories such as tripods or mounts.
3: More Colour Variants
According to leaks, the Flip 7 is only coming in three main colors – black, red & blue. This is very disappointing. Given that previous installments of the Flip series offered much more colour variety. I guess it was already dwindling last year since there was not even a purple as part of the lineup, but I was happy to pick up the mint. There’s a small possibility that the mint this year will be an online exclusive for Samsung’s own website. However, due to my bad experience using the Samsung.com website to order my phone last year, I hope this is not the case since I would much rather buy it in the Harajuku store.
2: More Memory Options (Japan)
This might be confusing to some overseas readers, but that is because they are blissfully unaware of the limitations Samsung users face in Japan. Despite being much closer to Samsung’s Korean headquarters, we often do not get Samsung devices until months later than the west. Here we are, about to see the new Unpacked event, but Samsung Japan has yet to even launch sales of the S25 Edge. Getting back to the Flip series, last year, we only had the 256GB option for all Flip colours except silver which had a 512GB option. Seeing how, in America, every colour option had both a 256GB & 512GB variant, this was very disappointing as a content creator who would have upgraded for the extra space if it was possible for mint. You might be thinking, “Why not just import an American one?” However, overseas Samsung devices do not have what is called a Felica Chip, making them incompatible with Japan’s IC payment systems, including Suica. With the latest advancements to Japan’s transit system slowly allowing it to accept regular credit cards in addition to its proprietary transit cards, the necessity for Felica Chips may eventually become outdated but, as of now, it is hard to sell secondhand Samsung devices from overseas in Japan due to there being no Felica support.
1: A Good Trade-In/Upgrade Deal
The thing I want the very most with the Flip 7 is a good trade-in deal. Looking on Samsung’s website now, trying to trade in the Flip 6 For the S25 only provides about ¥60,000 in credit. With a brand new Flip 6 retailing for roughly 160,000 yen, this is only slightly more than 1/3 of the retail price. That’s not very accommodating or promising. Looking for such a trade-in deal in Japan for the first time, I am not sure if I can expect there to be a better trade in deal for a direct upgrade from the Flip 6 to the Flip 7, but I am hoping that will be the case because, if not, I will likely hold on to this Flip 6 until the Flip 8 is released.

I’m not sure, but judging by leaked images of its supposedly new design, it certainly seems possible. If true, I may finally be able to switch from my Apple Watch 8 to a Samsung wearable.
Unconfirmed Samsung Watch 8 standard edition design leaked by Android Headlines
The reason I haven’t switched yet isn’t that I particularly like the Apple Watch 8. It’s because when I bought it in 2022, I also bought a silver band for it from famous Japanese silver jeweller, Artemis Classic, & this band isn’t compatible with Samsung devices. At 55,000 yen, this silver band costs about as much as a smartwatch itself. Switching to a device that cannot accommodate this band therefore isn’t appealing, as I don’t want this beautiful, ornate piece to go unworn.
While adapters exist that could conceivably work with this band, since the band itself is not even slightly adjustable it was custom-resized for me already. So, unless a smartwatch is 41mm like my Apple Watch 8 or below, the band won’t fit & would need further resizing. To this point, I was somewhat dismayed by leaked images of the Samsung Watch 8 Classic, which, at 46mm, would be much too large for this silver band to work. Moreover, its attachment points didn’t appear compatible with the band, even with an adapter. However, subsequent leaks of the standard Samsung Watch 8 suggest it may be the most compatible Samsung device for Apple Watch bands yet, featuring a squarish design similar to the Apple Watch, & a track record of 40mm & 44mm size variations. However, it is hard to tell without a rear image of the band connection points like this one like this one here.
Though I strongly prefer the rotating bezel design of the Watch 8 Classic, if my assumptions prove correct & my silver band fits, I will likely make the switch with the standard Watch 8 model. While nothing is wrong with my Apple Watch 8, & it’s still going strong after 3 years, it’s inconvenient to have it connected to an old iPhone I don’t carry. I can’t track health stats beyond a daily period, & advanced features like emergency crash detection are useless as are any other web-enabled features since the watch isn’t linked to my daily carry device. It’s also difficult to reload Suica on the go, as connecting the Apple Watch 8 to my Samsung Flip 6 via a Wi-Fi hotspot is not only a slow hassle, it’s unreliable since the watch sometimes refuses to connect. It’s not that I’m missing basic smartwatch features, which seem to have plateaued across the industry; it’s about being able to them when I need to.
Still, I’m somewhat worried we may have reached this point too late. Recent rumours suggest Samsung plans to charge subscription-based fees for their Watch devices. One of the attractive points about Samsung is its lack of such subscriptions. I don’t want them to lose that & become more like Apple. I despise subscription-based services &, band compatibility or not, will likely not switch if this rumour proves true.
With the Samsung Unpacked event expected within the next three weeks, we can only wait & see.

通常、俺はセレブリティニュース、特にセレブリティの恋愛に関するニュースを取り上げることはありません。しかし、Cradle of Filthは20年以上にわたり俺が最も愛するバンドであり、ダニ自身が数年前に俺のゴシックなゲームの広告を録音してくれて助けてくれたこともあるので、この喜ばしいニュースを共有するのは正当なことだと考えます。
I don’t usually cover celebrity news, especially not celebrity relationship news. However, Cradle of Filth is my very favorite band of over 20 years & Dani himself helped me out by recording an ad for my goth game several years back, so I think it’s justified to share this bit of joy.
You can see the moment for yourself in the video below. Thank you to the Youtuber who caught it on camera & uploaded it.
Here’s wishing a lifetime of health & happiness to Dani & his new bride 🥂

『Journal of Medical Internet Research』（2022年）の研究が、この原因を明らかにしています。クラッシュ検出は、加速度計と機械学習を用いて急激で高衝撃の動きを識別します。車両事故では有効ですが、モッシュピットの動的かつ合意に基づくカオスでは機能が低下します。特にApple Watchが問題視されており、2022年に導入されたクラッシュ検出機能がシンシナティのテーマパークでも誤報を引き起こしました。これにより、現在のウェアラブル技術が、オフィスワーカーからハードコアな音楽ファンまで多様なライフスタイルに対応できるのかという疑問が浮上しています。
