[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I started this journey two years ago with the Z Fold 6. I chose to skip the Z Fold 7 with anticipation of what was to come with the Z Fold 8 Ultra. I am pleased that I chose to wait. The larger battery, the brightness of the screen, and the lightness of the device. I am glad I chose to wait. Hopefully in the upcoming years, the S Pen will make its return to the Fold Lineup. That is all. I came, I saw, I chose the Z Fold 8 Ultra.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra feels like a device from the future, not in a flashy way but in a way that makes you wonder why every phone is not built like this. I chose it after years of switching between large phones and tablets, and it is the first time one device has genuinely replaced both for me. Folded, it is slimmer and more comfortable than any previous Fold. Unfolded, the huge 8 inch display works like a pocket sized tablet. The extra screen space is actually useful. Side by Side Multi Window becomes something you rely on. Email on one side, notes on the other. Maps next to messages. A full browser next to a video call. It is the first time multitasking on a phone has felt natural instead of cramped.
Performance is instant and smooth. The Snapdragon Elite Gen 5 and improved cooling make it feel closer to a small laptop than a phone. The camera system is another highlight. The 200MP main sensor delivers crisp detail, great low light shots, and zoom performance that makes you double check that you are still using a phone. Battery life easily lasts a full day of heavy use. The hinge feels solid, and the whole device has a premium but not fragile feel.
If you have ever looked at a foldable and thought it was a cool idea that was not quite ready, this is the one that finally gets it right. The Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra is not just a great foldable. It is one of the best smartphones available today.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Everything about this phone is perfect! Samsung absolutely nailed it with the Galaxy Z Fold. It's so slim that, despite being a foldable, its thickness is very similar to a regular flagship phone when folded. Once you open it, the large inner display is incredible for multitasking, reading, and watching videos, yet it still feels comfortable to carry in your pocket.
The build quality feels premium, the software is smooth, and the battery easily gets me through the day. I was worried a foldable would feel bulky or fragile, but this phone completely changed my mind. It genuinely feels like you're carrying both a phone and a tablet without the usual compromises.
Samsung has come a long way with the Fold series, and this version finally feels like the perfect balance between innovation and practicality. I couldn't be happier with it.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After several days I am so happy with the new size and weight. The front screen is now easy to use and the larger display is great. I upgraded from the z fold 6 and it's night and day difference. Sleek, lightweight and super fast!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My Samsung Z Fold 8 Ultra just arrived today, and my first impressions have already exceeded my expectations. Right out of the box, the phone feels incredibly premium. The foldable display is stunning, everything is fast and responsive, and opening the larger screen for the first time was a real "wow" moment. Even on day one, I can tell this is going to completely change the way I use my phone. To complete the experience, I paired it with the Galaxy Buds 4 Pro, and they've been just as impressive. The setup was effortless, the sound is rich and crystal clear, and the noise cancellation is excellent. Together, they make an amazing combination. What impressed me most is how effortlessly everything works together. Even though it's only my first day with the Z Fold 8 Ultra and Galaxy Buds 4 Pro, the experience has already exceeded my expectations. If this is what day one feels like, I can't wait to see how much more I'll enjoy them over time.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I choose zfold. Since I chose to buy my first Zfold (4), I decided not to switch to other phones anymore.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to upgrade from the Fold 6 to the Fold 8 Ultra and overall I am happy. The 8 is much slimmer and delivers a far better pocket experience. I just can't understand why the camera sticking out the way it does continues year after year. I understand that it has to stick out, but why not make it so that when you set the device down in doesn't wobble? Other than the wobble causing camera bulge, I love it.
