A really pretty phone
on September 4, 2026
Posted by: Lyranite
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] This phone is really pretty and feels good in my hand. It isn't overally big and feels very sleek. The screens, inside and out, are nice and crisp and very bright. It has lots of settings to modulate the brightness on the screens. One really fun thing it does is let you choose 15 pictures for it to rotate between on the lock screen so you don't know which one you will see when you turn your screen on. I chose this phone because I wanted to be able to do things on the large inner screen. While I love this phone, it unfortunately is triggering my migraines because of its pwm flicker rate. Even after changing the large amount of settings, I have been unable to improve this. If you aren't sensitive to flicker, I absolutely recommend this phone.

No need to be nervous about jumping from S26 Ultra
on September 3, 2026
Posted by: Chris
from Portland, OR
My family and I have used Samsung phones for over 20 years and that was primarily due to their great reliability. We've had every S series and most were usually Ultras. They are fantastic. But now I've moved on to the Zfold8 Ultra and was nervous about the move. I shouldn't have been, this is a spectacular device with excellent cameras and fast charging. The bonus is a big, bright screen! Reading with the Kindle app and editing videos are marvelous. No need to ever carry a tablet in my camera backpack. I can't recommend the S26 Ultra and the Z Fold8 Ultra enough. Top of the line!

I Ultra Love This Phone!
on September 3, 2026
Posted by: Cap335
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I've had the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra as my main phone for a couple of weeks now, and honestly? It finally feels like the foldable line has hit its stride.
Here is my real-world take on what it’s actually like to live with this thing every day.
What I’m Loving
The Anti-Glare Display is a Game-Changer: I used to hate reading ebooks or checking maps in bright sunlight on foldables because of the reflection off the inner screen protector. Whatever anti-reflective coating Samsung used this time makes a massive difference. You can actually use the 8-inch screen outdoors without staring at your own reflection.
The Crease Is (Finally) Barely Noticeable: You can still find it if you tilt the phone under a lamp and hunt for it, but the new titanium plate under the glass flattens things out completely. Scrolling through Twitter or Reddit, my thumb barely registers a bump anymore.
Battery Life Easily Lasts All Day: My biggest beef with older Folds was battery anxiety. With the bump to 5,000mAh, I'm routinely ending 16-hour days with 25–30% battery left, even with heavy multitasking, GPS navigation, and some gaming.

A Big Upgrade from the Z Fold 5
on September 3, 2026
Posted by: contactdp
[This review was collected as part of a promotion.] I chose the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra because, coming from the Z Fold 5, I was excited to see how much Samsung could improve an experience I already loved. The difference was noticeable right away. It feels significantly sleeker, thinner, and lighter, which makes such a big difference when carrying and using a foldable phone every day.
The battery life has been excellent, and I can comfortably get through the day without constantly worrying about charging, even when I am using the larger display frequently. The camera quality has also impressed me, with bright, sharp, detailed photos that feel like a real step up from my Fold 5.
What I love most is that Samsung kept the best parts of the Fold experience while making the phone feel more refined, practical, and enjoyable to use. The lighter design, great battery life, improved cameras, and large folding display make the Z Fold 8 Ultra feel like the upgrade I was hoping for.
