Still undecided about Fold 8 or Ultra
on August 7, 2026
Posted by: RecentlyRetiredAcademic
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have used and loved Samsung folds since they began. I chose to go with the Fold 8 despite some hesitancy about the new, smaller form factor, given that my work benefits from lots of real estate.
So far though I love it. While the Fold 8 inner screen is noticeably smaller than my former Fold 7 screen, I'm using the Fold 8's inner screen lots more because the Fold 8's weight, balance, and smooth edges make it so much easier to hold. I also love that I can readily optimize for either vertical or horizontal media. Turning my Fold 7 ninety degrees didn't help much at all because of its squarish format.
I have always loved Samsung displays and the Fold 8 lives up to the standard. Rich colors, sharp details in nearly any light. And I love the Fold 8's buttery smooth ooperations. Due to the larger battery, more efficient processor, and perhaps the somewhat smaller screen, my Fold 8 easily makes it through the day, unlike my Fold 7. I do miss the optical zoom and hope it returns soon; 10x digital zoom is pretty fuzzy. Otherwise my pictures are excellent.
Thus, so far I am mostly thrilled with the Fold 8. So much so that I enjoy using it for its own sake, not just to get things done. It's fun!

Was scared at first

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After using this phone for a week. I am no longer scared Simply Amazing. I thought the wide small factor was going to be to different. But turns out I like it a little better than the new ultra version. The gaming and movie watching is amazing. Look forward to diving in it more.. Great job Samsung.

Very Impressed!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] It's everything I wanted. Coming from the S Ultra line the Z Fold 8 has surpassed my expectations. To be as think as a S Ultra when folded and as thin as it is when it is unfolded is mind blowing. No lost of speed or major functionality either has been a big relief too. It doesn't have an s-pen like the ultra, but in my opinion it makes up for that by transforming from a standard phone to a tablet.

Samsung Fold 8
on August 7, 2026
Posted by: DHall1
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Fold and couldn't be happier. I am a longtime Samsung Note and Z Fold user, dating back to 2011, when I was stationed in England. The Fold 8 is the perfect size and form factor and has been my daily driver after using my Fold 7 for the past 12 months. Battery life has been nothing short of excellent. Screen clarity has been superb, and the phone's pocket-friendly size has made this a great purchase. Samsung has built a beautiful masterpiece!!!

Great feel and size for media use
on August 7, 2026
Posted by: TechyMarkbo
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Really enjoying the new wider but shorter form factor. While I enjoyed the prior Fold 7, sometimes it was just too narrow for good use and text readability due to less space. The wide but short Fold 8 is the answer to the problem. Playing videos and using social media is a new great experience.
