Summary
Samsung introduced the Galaxy Z Fold8 and Z Fold8 Ultra, positioning the new foldables around thinner, lighter hardware and AI-driven multitasking rather than a single one-size-fits-all design.
At 201g, the Z Fold8 is Samsung’s lightest Fold yet, while the Ultra weighs 215g and measures 4.1mm unfolded, enabled by a redesigned hinge, display and internal architecture plus new Flex Titanium construction.
The standard Fold8 targets media and everyday use with a 7.6-inch main screen, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, 4,800mAh battery and up to 3,000 nits brightness.
The Ultra shifts toward productivity with an 8-inch main display, 5,000mAh battery, 45W charging and Galaxy AI features including Now Nudge, Gemini Notebook, drag-and-drop and resizable split-screen windows.
Samsung also updated Smart Switch and One UI 9 to ease migration from iPhone and Android devices, adding transfers for passwords, passkeys, call history, accessibility settings and eSIM data.
