Caviar has released a set of heavily customized Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra phones that cost more than most cars. These limited edition devices target collectors who want to display movie-inspired art on their pocket screens rather than people who need better camera performance. The pricing starts at $12,560 and goes up to $13,700 for the most elaborate versions. Spending this kind of money on a phone modification is a unique choice in the tech market.
Caviar releases three movie-themed custom Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra phones
The new devices belong to the "Cinema Legends" collection and feature three distinct designs. Each design draws inspiration from the film series Joker, The Godfather, and Scarface. Caviar plates the gold elements on the back of the phones with 24-karat gold. They also add handcrafted enamel portraits to complete the look. The company produces exactly 19 units for each of the three themes.
Specifications
- Edition Name: Cinema Legends

- Production Limit: 19 units per design
- Price Range: $12,560 – $13,700
Notebookcheck notes that Caviar regularly reissues flagship smartphones from Apple and Samsung as expensive limited editions with exclusive designs. This practice explains why the company charges such high premiums for these custom units. The phones are now available in Caviar’s online store for immediate purchase. Buyers should note that Caviar only offers a one-year warranty on the smartphones. This warranty period is standard for third-party customizers but short for a flagship device.
The heavy materials used for the back cover likely disable wireless charging capabilities. This is a speculative consequence based on the material changes described in the source data. We looked at Samsung Unveils Official Cases for Galaxy in our earlier Samsung coverage.
Caviar has confirmed the release of the Cinema Legends collection for the Galaxy Z Fold8 and Z Fold8 Ultra. The three movie-inspired designs are limited to 19 units each. The prices range from $12,560 to $13,700 depending on the specific model and storage configuration.
