Response from Samsung USBy R&R, August 12, 2026
Hi there Nish,
Thank you for taking the time to share your experience with your Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra. The Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra combines a sleek design, slim profile, and lightweight foldable form for a refined user experience. We appreciate your feedback regarding the phone becoming noticeably warm while recording video. It's normal for your device to feel warmer during processor-intensive activities. Functions like the camera, Bluetooth, and GPS can use a lot of processing power, which in turn consumes more battery and may cause the device to heat up slightly. This indicates that all components are working together to deliver the expected performance. Your feedback is invaluable in helping Samsung continue to refine performance during demanding tasks. Thank you for being a part of the Samsung community.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Only had this phone for a few days. I've dropped it once with an OtterBox case no damage. Apps are fast battery is long life. Love how thin the phone is.

Why I Keep Coming Back to the Z Fold
on August 9, 2026
Posted by: Tonewiththephone
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I’ve been using the Galaxy Z Fold since the Z Fold 3 and I upgrade pretty much every year. I chose the Fold because I actually use the larger screen and multitasking features on a daily basis, both for work and entertainment.
For work, I’m in commercial construction safety management, and my Fold has become one of the tools I use throughout the day. I take a lot of jobsite photos and use the editing and markup features in Gallery to add arrows, notes, dates, times and other information directly to my pictures. This makes it much easier to give my workers clear directions and point out exactly what I’m talking about.
I also use voice recordings and transcripts quite a bit for work. One of my favorite things about the Fold is being able to have multiple things open at once. I can be watching a YouTube video, have market charts open in another window, and still have a third window available to send work messages or handle something else.
I’ve also recently upgraded my other Galaxy devices, including the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 a the newest Galaxy Buds. I like having my phone, watch and earbuds all working together, especially since I use them throughout both my workday and personal time.
Outside of work, I use my Fold constantly for entertainment, YouTube, following and trading the markets, and just about everything else I would normally use a computer or tablet for. After using Fold phones for this many years, it would be difficult for me to go back to a regular phone. I’ve gotten

This phone is awesome!

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the z fold 8 ultra because it is such a sleek looking phone that has powerful components inside. This phone has absolutely blown me away and exceeded my expectations. It is so slim in my hands I feel like it's the same as my old galaxy phone, but this one folds open! Everything that I do boots up so fast and the transitions on screen look beautiful. I have tried to talk several friends into getting this phone. The deal they are offering right now is also incredible!!!

Z Fold8 Ultra Phone
on August 9, 2026
Posted by: RANDAL
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Z Fold8 after comparing the specs to my current s26 ultra
The Specs are great and the fold is now almost seamless. The only question now, do I carry my tablet on trips going forward? This fold screen is big enough to stream on for my old eyes

The Upgrade I Was Waiting For!A Huge Leap From My
on August 9, 2026
Posted by: Eric88
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I upgraded from the Galaxy Z Fold 6, and the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra has exceeded my expectations. Samsung took everything I already loved about the Fold and made the entire experience feel more refined, powerful, and premium.
The large inner display is incredible for multitasking, watching videos, handling work, and getting things done without reaching for a tablet. The phone feels fast and responsive, the displays look beautiful, and the slimmer, more polished design makes it much more enjoyable to use every day. Even the outer screen feels more practical, while unfolding it still gives you that “wow” factor.
As someone who already owned a Fold, I was worried the upgrade might feel minor but it absolutely does not. The Fold8 Ultra feels like the most complete version of Samsung’s foldable vision yet. It gives me the convenience of a phone, the workspace of a tablet, and a genuinely futuristic experience in one device. I love it, and I would have a very hard time going back to a regular phone.
