Samsung has released the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, marking its first entry into the Ultra-branded book-style foldable segment. This launch matters because it pushes the physical limits of thinness and display brightness in a device that folds in half. Buyers looking for the most compact large-screen Android experience now have a new benchmark to consider.

Samsung introduces its first Ultra-branded foldable with a massive 8-inch inner screen and silicon-carbon battery technology

The phone relies on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy processor to handle its demanding hardware. It runs on One UI 9 and features a Flex Titanium support structure to maintain durability. The device balances high performance with a chassis that measures just 4.1mm when unfolded.

Specifications

  • Cover Display: 6.5-inch FHD+, Gorilla Glass Ceramic 3
  • Main Display: 8-inch QXGA+, Dynamic AMOLED 2X, 3000 nits peak brightness, anti-reflective coating
  • Refresh Rate: 120Hz adaptive
  • Rear Camera: 200MP main (2x optical zoom), 50MP ultra-wide, 10MP 3x telephoto
  • Front Camera: Dual 10MP

Display specifications include a 6.5-inch FHD+ cover screen and a massive 8-inch QXGA+ inner panel. The main screen uses Dynamic AMOLED 2X technology with an anti-reflective coating and reaches 3000 nits peak brightness. Both panels support 120Hz adaptive refresh rates for smooth scrolling.

Samsung equipped the rear camera with a 200MP main sensor featuring 2x optical zoom, a 50MP ultra-wide lens, and a 10MP 3x telephoto. Users get dual 10MP front cameras, with one positioned on each display. Power comes from a 5000mAh silicon-carbon battery that supports 45W wired and 20W wireless charging.

Pricing starts at $2,099 for the 12GB RAM and 256GB storage configuration. The 12GB/512GB model costs $2,299, while the top-tier 16GB/1TB version is priced at $2,699. Global shipping begins on August 7, 2025, making the device available to early adopters immediately.
