Amazing new Fold 8

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to upgrade to the new Fold 8 instead of the 8 ultra and I couldn't be happier. The smaller closed size is so much more convenient and the inner screen is perfect for media consumption. It's amazing the video playback size is the same size or bigger than the old fold 7 or the new fold 8 ultra. I couldn't be happier with the screen quality, the size and the fact you can barely see the crease anymore.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose to get the new z fold 8 because of the new form factor and the upgraded screen tech - this is my 1st new phone and i am so glad i chose to get this wide form factor Samsung foldable
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Z Fold 8, expecting it to bring more ease and flow into the way I move through my day. The moment it opens, it gives me this quiet sense of possibility, like I’m stepping into a bigger, more creative version of my day. The new shape feels confident and refined, and the whole experience stays fast, fluid, and empowering.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] My previous phone was the Galaxy Z Fold 7 which I loved, but I chose to try the new passport-like form factor with with the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and so far I am loving it. It is a bit smaller in total screen size but the new form instantly clicked for my normal phone use, which is primarily video watching and some light mobile gaming. Also with the 7 I found myself immediately rotating the device sideways to get the widest screen possible, whereas with the 8 you are already at the widest possible immediately upon unfolding. I appreciate the lighter weight and I'm also finding the cover screen much more usable than the 7 and a better fit in both my front and back pocket. Recommended.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] The Z Fold 8 is a wonderful phone that takes the best of the fold design and results in a smaller phone akin to the flip series. It is powerful, light and easy to use. the only downside is the lack of a 200mp zoom camera. hopefully the next version will have a better camera setup. However the pictures this one takes are just fine.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] When I saw the new Z Fold 8 during the launch event, I knew I was going to love it. The excitement I used to feel for new phones back when innovations popped up with every release suddenly made a resurgence. I know the Fold 8 isn't the first passport-style foldable, but it FEELS like the first because Samsung has made so much progress on perfecting foldable technology. What once would have been a phone for enthusiasts living on the bleeding edge is now a polished device in a new, ergonomic format. I've owned the Z Fold 3 and 5, and then switched to the Flip 6 because the Fold was just too much phone. I chose to flip on the Z Flip series because the new Fold 8 is.. not a compromise.. a culmination of what makes both Z lines great. Portability, form, function, versatility, aesthetic.. this phone has it all. I'm happy that Samsung has decided to give consumers choices this year, but I won't be going back. I'm not saying this phone is perfect. The camera array is obviously a step down from other flagships and there are certain difficulties that are bound to stem from a whole new form factor when it comes to MagSafe accessories, but it fits my lifestyle perfectly. The cover screen reminds me of a certain other productivity-centered, berry-flavored phone from the past, but so much more refined. The inner display feels like an ultra-thin mini tablet. If Samsung upgrades the camera array and makes it horizontal, I'll upgrade next year as well.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I wanted this form factor for years and I love the outer screen, You can do so much with the phone closed, On all my fold devices before this I used the inner screen and rarely used the outer display
