Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8: lighter design and faster charging redefine foldables

Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold8 debuts a lighter regular model and a flagship Z Fold8 Ultra, both with 120Hz LTPO displays and the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5. The regular Fold8 trims the camera setup for a slimmer body, while retaining performance; it also delivers Samsung’s fastest foldable charging yet at 45W and ships with a minimal box (no charger). Prices start around $1,899 for 256GB, with higher capacities up to about £2,209 for 1TB in the UK. The phones offer strong cameras, 8K video, 5G, Wi‑Fi 7, and robust build quality, continuing Samsung’s premium foldable strategy.
