Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra
on August 7, 2026
Posted by: IamWheaties
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to upgrade from my Z Fold 6 to the new Z Fold 8 Ultra because of the advancements made over two generations, giving one of the slimmest foldable phones that I think is possible (unfolded, it's literally only as thick as the USB C port) without sacrificing anything at all.
It has a larger screen, both folded and unfolded, and even a larger battery to make sure I last the entire day - though I never ran into that issue with my Z Fold 6 either.

Samsung getting better and better
on August 7, 2026
Posted by: Sam2sung
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I choose Galaxy long before. Being products user since Galaxy 7 (dont miss with foldable Z 7). And this devices getting better and better. First time I got foldable while having previous version - 7. I really afraid it would be problematic. But not. It works well and sooo convenient. Especially when you are not already has a good vision and can switch to a wider screen. . Also watching movies very good..
It use to be a problematic to move from one phone to another. And now technology gives us help to it smoothly.
OK. As usual good devise. Thank you Sumsung. Keep using it.

The Fold 8 Ultra is light years ahead of previous
on August 7, 2026
Posted by: Heather4Frogs
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've been the proud owner of a Galaxy Fold since, beginning with the Galaxy Fold 2. I've owned every version since then, and always appreciated the improvements/changes that came with the upgrading my device. I was expecting a similar experience when I chose to purchase this Galaxy Fold 8 Ultra. Boy, was I wrong!
This phone feels completely revamped, upgraded, and improved in every single way. From the size and ratio of the display to how the phone opens and closes. It's so light and thin, with a dazzling sharp display.
I can't begin to describe how over the moon I am about this phone. It's unbelievable how many improvements were packed into the 8 Ultra, for such a minor price point increase.
The longer I use it, the more new features I discover that make me fall in love with it even more. Hats off to Samsung and all of their developers. They really hit this one out of the park!

From Fold 6 to 8 Ultra
on August 7, 2026
Posted by: Urbantechie
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I choose the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra. Although the form factor is the same candy bar style, it physically feels like a totally different phone. The front screen is wider but still managed to reduce thickness and weight even with a bigger battery. With the addition of faster charging speeds, this a great upgrade. Even when I put on a case, it's still thinner and lighter than the 6.

Minor Changes that make a difference.
on August 7, 2026
Posted by: rubyonrails
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The changes are marginal so I don't think if you are on the 7 you need to upgrade but I chose the phone mainly for faster charging and a larger battery. It was nice to see some of the small difference most notable to me was that it was slightly nicer to hold and easier to open than the 7 do to the chamfered edges

More than just another foldable!
on August 7, 2026
Posted by: Ultra8Mc
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Z Fold 8 Ultra after owning the Z Fold 4, and Z fold 6 ultra. This foldable is light-years better. Don't get me wrong I loved the z fold 6 ultra and used it for business, personal, travel, and keeping the kids busy. However, after using the new Z Fold 8 ultra, I can definitely say this is the phone foldable users have been waiting for. It's lightweight, has an ultra clear, vivid bright screen, awesome camera setup and enough storage options that you won't ever worry about running out of space. I find myself reaching for my fold 8 ultra for just about all my socalmedia, entertainment, and quick gaming needs. Samsung, keep up the great work and thanks for listening to what customers have been asking for!

The Best Foldable Yet – A Massive Upgrade From Pre
on August 7, 2026
Posted by: PlayersClub
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] Having owned every Galaxy Fold since the Z Fold 4, I’ve seen this lineup evolve year after year, but the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra feels like the biggest leap forward yet. "I chose" this model because Samsung finally nailed the balance between screen real estate and everyday usability.
Why It Stands Out:
Noticeably Lighter & Sleeker: Compared to the older models I've used, the updated form factor is significantly thinner and lighter in the hand. It no longer feels heavy in your pocket, making it feel much more like a standard flagship phone when closed.
Genuinely Useful AI Features: The new Galaxy AI integration makes multitasking on the larger 8-inch screen even better. Features like live translations, smarter note summarization, and generative photo editing feel fast, intuitive, and practical for daily use.
Refined Build & Display: The screen crease is less visible than ever thanks to the improved hinge design, and the battery life finally keeps up with a full day of heavy productivity and media consumption.
Final Verdict
If you’re coming from an older fold, this upgrade is worth every penny. It gives you the power of a tablet with zero compromise on comfort. Absolutely loving it!
