Samsung Z Fold 8 Ultra Hits Record Low of $1,699 During October Prime Day

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra has reached its lowest price ever, dropping to $1,699.99 for the 256GB model during Amazon's October Prime Day event. This $400 discount applies to both 256GB and 512GB configurations, making the flagship foldable significantly more accessible. The device features an 8.0-inch inner display, Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 processor, and a 200MP main camera. While the price remains high, it represents a substantial saving compared to its launch price of $2,099.99. Competing outlets note that the standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 is also discounted, though the Ultra remains the premium choice for those seeking top-tier performance and camera capabilities.

Premium Foldable Showdown: iPhone Duo vs. Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra

Apple's iPhone Duo and Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra battle as premium foldables with different design philosophies: the Duo is compact with a 5.4-inch cover, 7.6-inch inner display, IP68 dust/water resistance, dual 48MP cameras (no telephoto), and MagSafe wireless charging, while the Z Fold 8 Ultra features a larger closed/officer footprint, a bigger 8-inch inner display, a triple rear camera system (up to 200MP wide), Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, a 5,000 mAh battery, faster wired charging, and an IP48 rating. Preorders/eavailability differ (Duo preorder Oct 16 for Oct 23 release; Ultra available now), and price is similar around $2,000. The choice comes down to use: the Duo suits those who value compactness and Apple’s ecosystem, whereas the Ultra offers a slab-like feel with a larger tablet-like display and top-tier cameras for multitasking and media.

Pixel 11 Pro Fold: thinner and lighter, but not enough to beat rivals

The Pixel 11 Pro Fold trims weight and thickness but sacrifices battery capacity and charging speed, delivering only modest upgrades over last year. With a smaller 4,750mAh battery, 30W charging, and Tensor G6 concerns, it struggles to justify its $1,899 price against Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra and Motorola Razr Fold. The review questions Google’s continued foldable strategy and suggests a more ambitious redesign or a temporary skip of a generation might be necessary to compete.

Galaxy Z Fold 8: the Goldilocks foldable—buy or skip?

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 nails a pocketable, tablet-like form factor with strong performance (Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, 12–16GB RAM), a near-creaseless inner display, and handy AI features, making it a compelling all‑around foldable. Yet its cameras are just decent, there’s no S Pen, and at roughly $1,900 it’s a steep ask; if you want the best folding experience and bigger battery/camera, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is only about $200 more and arguably worth it.

Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra review: premium foldable power comes with a premium price

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is a premium foldable that feels like a pocket tablet—brighter, crease-minimized, and fast, with a 5,000 mAh battery, 45W charging, and a top-tier triple camera led by a 200MP sensor, plus on-device Galaxy AI features—yet its $2,100 price, a protruding camera hump, and uneven AI tools temper its appeal for all but power users.

EU labels confirm faster battery wear for Samsung's Galaxy Z8 foldables

The EU’s EPREL energy database reveals the Galaxy Z Flip 8, Z Fold 8, and Z Fold 8 Ultra are rated for 1,200 charging cycles before about 20% capacity loss, down from 2,000 cycles on the Z Flip 7/Z Fold 7. Silicon‑carbon batteries boost capacity but degrade faster, with the Z Flip 8 likely dropping to ~3,440mAh after 1,200 cycles and the Fold 8 Ultra and Fold 8 reducing to ~4,000mAh and ~3,840mAh respectively. Samsung notes this trade‑off and has increased pack sizes (notably in the Ultra) to offset it; the S26 line appears to share the same 1,200‑cycle figure. Overall, these foldables offer higher capacity but shorter longevity than their immediate predecessors.
