Thinner and lighter than I thought it would be.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I was used to the heavier S21 Ultra, which i had used since it's release and the ZFold 8 Ultra is much lighter and thinner which is doing wonders for hand cramps. The camera bump is quite large, but is easy to get used to. The fold is barely noticeable and only if I'm looking for it. Looking forward to using this phone for years to come.
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I loved the Z Fold 6 but the ZFold 8 upgrade is way better, so I chose to send this review, of the my new zfold 8 ultra
I use it for my mortgage brokerage its like have a full computer with me all the time, I am glade that I held out for the zfold8 ultra better battery brighter out doors,less reflective in the sun .
But I know when people see this in action they are so interested to see what it is and how it works great product great service also .

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra coming from the Galaxy S26 Ultra, and the transition has been seamless. The Samsung ecosystem, including my Galaxy Watch 8 and Ray-Ban Meta glasses, paired without any friction.
The inner display delivers exactly what I expected. Reading manga in landscape mode is a completely different experience; full pages display with correct proportions, no black bars, no zooming or scrolling. It feels natural immediately.
Worth noting for anyone comparing the standard Fold 8 and the Ultra for media: rotating the Ultra to landscape adds nearly half an inch to the overall screen dimension from top to bottom, effectively matching the standard Fold 8 for media consumption. The media oriented advantage of the standard model largely disappears in landscape orientation, which is how most people watch video content anyway.
The outer display has its own charm; narrower than a traditional flagship but effective for quick interactions and daily tasks. The hinge feels solid and the crease becomes a non-issue during actual use.
Performance is flagship level across the board. Battery life needs slight adjustment in expectations; powering two displays means drain is somewhat higher than a traditional flagship of the same capacity, a reasonable tradeoff for what the device offers.
For anyone who consumes media, reads, or wants genuine tablet functionality without carrying two devices, the Fold 8 Ultra is the right choice.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I absolutely love my new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra! The innovation, performance, and display are outstanding. The multitasking features have made both my work and personal life much easier. The phone feels premium, the battery life has been great, and the cameras take excellent photos. Samsung continues to impress with its technology and customer experience. I highly recommend the Galaxy Z series to anyone looking for the best foldable smartphone. Thank you, Samsung
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] After having a Z Flip for a few years I chose to upgrade to the Z Fold8 Ultra, and I'm glad I did. The bigger battery and incredible main screen are a massive upgrade, and make for a significantly better multitasking and media consuming experience!
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose because of reduced crease and mproved battery. Crease is notably improved from the Z Fold7. Love this phone for productivity. I do wish I had an S Pen for notes for work.

[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Samsung Z Fold 8 Ultra and so far the experience is superb. Coming from the Z Fold 5 it is incredible how thin the lineup has gotten and how premium these devices feel. 10/10 I would definitely recommend!
