Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 8 The shorter and wider design he prepared for was clearly revealed in the new images released a week before the Galaxy Unpacked event on July 22. The images show the phone side by side with the Galaxy Z Flip 8, Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Galaxy Watch 9. This comparison shows that Samsung has opted for a new body approaching the passport shape in the standard Fold model, which is clearly different from previous generations.
In the images sourced from Android Headlines, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 looks larger than the Galaxy Z Flip 8 but more compact than the long-body Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra. Unlike the long and narrow phone structure that Samsung uses in the current Galaxy Z Fold 7 model, the new model seems to offer a larger screen area in the closed position. Thus, users can encounter a screen ratio closer to classic smartphones when writing messages, opening websites or using social media applications.

Approximate price for Galaxy Z Fold 8 in new leaks 123.7 x 161.3 x 4.8mm Clear body dimensions stand out. If these figures are correct, the new phone will come with a shorter but significantly wider structure than the Fold 7. Approximately 200 grams The estimated weight will also make the phone lighter than the 215 gram Fold 7.
We can say that with this design, Samsung aims to divide the foldable phone family into two different usage styles. While Galaxy Z Fold 8 highlights the tablet experience with its larger internal screen and compact body, Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra will continue the long design line of Fold 7. The company has not yet officially announced the model names and specifications. Hence both the name “Ultra” and the measurements on leaks on July 22 We have to wait for the introduction.
