The most "nailed it" device ever
on August 13, 2026
Posted by: JasonR73
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After years and years of owning Samsung devices, I chose the Fold 8 specifically because of the form factor. I always missed this passport form factor and I knew that once you open this device it would be no compromises. I use my phone extensively for work and now find myself increasingly not even carrying a laptop with me.
With the new Fold 8 this has become the reality. This is the one device to rule them all! I don't need a laptop to do meetings, I don't need a laptop to type long documents. I don't need a laptop to review documents. Just fold open this device and you have the perfect tablet for everything you need to do.
I am shocked at how thin this device is folded up. It's even more impossibly thin once you unfold the device. Battery life is stellar and no one does screens as exceptionally as Samsung.
This might very well become my favorite phone of all time.

Z Fold 8, a very welcomed change in design!
on August 13, 2026
Posted by: 2Nerdy4U
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I have never experienced the pleasure of using any other brand of foldable, but this change in design fits my needs perfectly. I chose to upgrade.from the Z Fold 7, simply because of this form factor. This is both my work phone and daily driver. It has gotten me through an entire work day of HEAVY usage just fine. A 7AM-6PM leaves me with about 40% battery. This is HUGE improvement over my Z Fold 7.
Do I wish the screen was taller? Maybe a little bit. Magsafe wallet hangs off the back about an inch. So much so, that I am not comfortable and no longer use it.
I love the way this design fits in my hands, both folded and unfolded. Rotating the phone gives a different implementation of the software. For example, Google Messages is often glitchy. The messages get bunched together and a brief rotation sets things right again. I'm hopeful that developers fix a lot of these type of quirks
Overall, it's a homerun for Samsung and to those of you reading this, if you are considering a switch, I would say that you won't be disappointed. I really like it.

The Galaxy Z Fold8 is incredible

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Z Fold8 as my primary device for everyday use due to its capabilities and versatility. The form factor is excellent and has exceeded expectations. I use it for nearly everything, paying bills, emails, calls, consuming media, creating content, it really does it all.

My favorite phone ever.
on August 12, 2026
Posted by: Anna2026
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my new phone. I chose the new Galaxy Z Fold 8 for a couple of reasons, but mainly due to its form factor and it ended up being perfect for me. It's small and big at the same time. I use it at work a lot more than expected. It's light, easy to hold, FITS IN MY POCKET, and at the same time it can become pretty much like a tablet, which is amazing. It's everything I need. Apparently it wasn't supposed to have the flex mode but it works- I use it many times in flex mode if I want to follow a recipe or watch something on small screen. If Samsung decides to somehow fit a pen into it, I would be even happier. That's the only thing I slightly miss from my previous phone. I keep telling my husband what a perfect phone this. It's everything I ever wanted in a phone. Thank you Samsung! Also I really appreciated the trade in value.

I chose to upgrade from the fold 7! Great Decision
on August 12, 2026
Posted by: MrJ9T5
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to make the switch from the fold7 (which I LOVED) and I couldn't be happier! The only complaint I ever had about my fold was the elongated screen was hard for even my large hands to maneuver one handed. I wanted a shorter and wider screen. Asked and samsung delivered! I love my new fold8 and am so glad I chose to get it!

Galaxy Z Fold 8
on August 12, 2026
Posted by: ChapteRnByte
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This is my first foldable device and my first Samsung device ever owned. I absolutely LOVE this device. The size, the capability, the endless possibilities with this device makes me love it more and more. I chose the Z fold8 and will continue to choose Samsung for a lifetime. The route this company is going is definitely up my alley and I just can't wait to see what other amazing devices they create!
