Samsung Galaxy Fold8 series and Z Flip8 coverage wrap-up
Posted on July 23, 2026, 4 p.m.
Yesterday, Samsung introduced the third new model of the Galaxy foldable line-up – confusingly, it’s called the Galaxy Z Fold8, but it is not a Z Fold7 successor. Instead, it is a new (for Samsung) form factor that combines a 16:10 cover display with a 4:3 inner display.
The Z Fold7 successor is called the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra now. With the magic of Silicon-Carbon, it has a 5,000mAh battery – 600mAh more than its predecessor. There’s also the Galaxy Z Flip8, which is slimmer and lighter, but there is no Flip FE this time around. And both the Flip and the Fold got more expensive.
