I've spent a few weeks testing Samsung's $900 Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE, and while I'd love to say it's just a slightly less powerful version of last year's Z Flip 6 and a less-expensive alternative to the $1,

Samsung's latest announcement just made the Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE even more pointless than it already was – and that's saying something.

For those unaware, Samsung says all Certified Re-Newed phones are "serviced by Samsung specialists" and repaired with 100% Samsung genuine parts. These devices have a brand-new battery and are backed by the same one-year brand warranty as buying new phones from the brand.
