Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Fold8 and Flip8 officially announced

Samsung has officially launched the new Galaxy Z series, with the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, Fold8 and Flip8.

Galaxy AI is designed for different devices. Each insight is more useful, and actions feel more connected. Multitasking is simpler on the larger screens of Galaxy Z Fold8 and Fold8 Ultra, while Flip8’s FlexWindow keeps important information and shortcuts easily accessible. With partner AI experiences like Gemini Intelligence, Galaxy helps users accomplish tasks with fewer steps, ensuring transparency, privacy, and control.

“As AI becomes more agentic, mobile devices will become the most personal entry point to experiences that understand and adapt to each user,” said TM Roh, Chief Executive Officer, President and Head of the Device eXperience (DX) Division at Samsung Electronics. “By setting a new standard for foldables, we are once again advancing the premium mobile experience and opening the next era of intelligence to more people.”

The All-New Galaxy Z Fold8: A New Galaxy Fold Experience for Everyday Immersion

Galaxy Z Fold8 is designed for users who seek a natural foldable experience during exploration. It transitions smoothly from quick tasks on the cover screen to immersive viewing, reading, and gaming on the main display. With user-friendly display sizes and reliable performance, Fold8 enhances engagement with important content, stories, and ideas.

Galaxy Z Fold8’s display ratios are tailored to how people use content daily. By adjusting the screen for different activities, it offers a more engaging experience for browsing, watching, reading, or gaming. Weighing only 201 g, Fold8 is Samsung’s lightest Galaxy Z Fold. It features the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Mobile Platform for Galaxy and a larger 4,800 mAh battery, providing smooth performance and long battery life for extended use.

When folded, the 10:16 cover screen feels familiar and comfortable for the short moments people return to most often, such as messaging, social updates, browsing and short-form video.
When unfolded, the 4:3 main display creates a larger canvas that helps users lose themselves in games and films.
When rotated, the same display ratio becomes naturally suited to reading, giving users a more comfortable way to settle into articles, e-books and long-form content without carrying another device.
Together, these display ratios are designed around the way people naturally consume content, helping Fold8 feel more immersive whether users are quickly checking in or settling in for longer sessions.

A Display Engineered From the Inside Out

Samsung’s display engineering expertise in the new Galaxy Z series enhances the foldable experience with slimmer designs, greater durability, and seamless viewing.

Samsung’s new Flex Titanium technology introduces a titanium-based display structure designed to help make foldables thinner while maintaining durability. Combining a titanium-alloy film with an enhanced titanium plate, Flex Titanium helps strengthen display support, absorb pressure and impact, and reduce crease visibility over time. This structure also refines the way the device opens, balancing hinge mechanics, display tension and magnetic force to make unfolding feel smoother, lighter and more natural.
With up to 3,000 nits of brightness, Vision Booster and a low-reflection display finish, the main screen stays vivid and easy to see even in outdoor settings.

A Clear and Versatile Camera Experience

Galaxy Z Fold8 helps users easily capture and share important moments, whether it’s a landscape, a group photo, or a quick shot on the go. It simplifies photography and video editing.

Dual 50 MP cameras deliver consistent high-resolution detail across wide and ultra-wide perspectives, helping preserve image quality across different scenes and shooting conditions.
Dual Recording lets users capture both sides of the moment while previewing themselves through the cover screen, making reactions and shared experiences easier to frame.
My FanCam automatically tracks a selected subject and reframes footage into a preferred aspect ratio, turning dynamic scenes into social-ready videos with less manual editing.

Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra: The Ultra Foldable Built for Maximum Productivity

Ultra is Galaxy’s leading standard for performance and innovation. The Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra has a foldable design with a large 8-inch main display for multitasking. Its strong camera and long-lasting battery allow users to create all day. It’s also the slimmest Z Fold design, just 4.1 mm thick when unfolded and weighing 215 g, perfect for productivity on the go.

Professional-Grade Creativity With an Ultra-Level Camera System

Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra is built to give creators more freedom from capture to edit, with an Ultra-level camera system and creative tools that make high-quality content easier to produce from one device.

The 200 MP main camera system captures rich, detailed photos with greater clarity, and is now enhanced with High Dynamic Range (HDR) capability in 200 MP mode for more true-to-life images.
A new 50 MP ultra-wide camera brings greater detail and clarity to wider scenes and macro shots, giving users more flexibility when capturing landscapes, interiors, group shots and close-up details.
Improved Nightography helps photos and videos look brighter and clearer in low light, so users can capture standout moments even in challenging lighting conditions.
For advanced creators, 8K video recording through the new APV codec gives users greater flexibility and quality for editing and production workflows, while Cine LUT adds cinematic color and tone control directly from a mobile device.

Power, Battery and Cooling Built for All-Day Productivity

Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra is designed to be fast, responsive, and reliable for demanding tasks, from multitasking and content creation to AI workflows.

With Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 Mobile Platform for Galaxyat its core, Fold8 Ultra delivers the performance users need to switch between apps, work across a larger screen and keep demanding tasks moving smoothly.
A larger 5,000 mAh battery helps users stay productive for longer, supporting a full day of work, creation and entertainment in a slimmer foldable design.
Fold8 Ultra introduces a new dual-path charging architecture with 45W fast charging, helping distribute power more efficiently across the battery system for faster, more stable and reliable charging throughout the day.
Fold8 Ultra uses an expanded graphite cooling structure engineered for improved thermal conductivity, helping dissipate heat more effectively to keep the device responsive during demanding tasks.

Galaxy Z Flip8: The Sleekest, Most Expressive AI-Native Flip Experience

Galaxy Z Flip8 is designed for users who want a dynamic phone. It focuses on quick interactions, personal expression, and AI experiences, making Galaxy AI accessible for daily tasks with its reimagined FlexWindow and flexible Flip design. Weighing only 180 g and just 6.1 mm thick, it’s Samsung’s slimmest and lightest Flip, bringing information and creativity closer to everyday life.

A Smarter, More Intuitive FlexWindow Experience

Galaxy Z Flip8 transforms the FlexWindow into a smart everyday tool, giving users information and help right when they need it.

The new FlexWindow brings apps, insights and actions directly to the cover screen, helping users access information, AI-powered features and connected tasks in fewer steps.
Now Brief on the FlexWindow home screen brings timely insights and next steps, helping users move from glanceable information to action at the right moment.
Flip8 also makes automation through Gemini Intelligence easier to access from the FlexWindow, allowing users to complete connected actions through side-key activation or natural voice requests.

FlexCam Unlocks a More Expressive Flip Selfie Experience

Galaxy Z Flip8 elevates Samsung’s Flip camera experience, transforming everyday moments into expressive content with flexible angles and real-time previews. With hands-free shooting and cover-screen selfie videos, Flip8 allows users to create, check, and share polished moments effortlessly.

A 50 MP camera with ProVisual Engine delivers Galaxy Z Flip’s most advanced selfie experience, helping users capture detailed portraits and everyday shots with natural skin tones, dynamic bokeh and standout detail.
Flex Mode makes hands-free shooting easy from a wide range of angles, while Camcorder Grip with Zoom Rocker provides a more comfortable, stable hold when capturing dynamic shots on the move.
Super Steady — now with a Horizontal Lock option — helps keep footage smooth and consistently framed, whether filming action-filled moments or on-the-go selfie videos.
FlipShot lets users personalize the FlexWindow and capture more expressive mirror selfies, while Mirror view gives users a realistic mirror-like view for quick look checks before taking a photo or heading out.

A New Class of Agentic Experiences Optimized for Foldables

As the most personal device, the phone is the primary entry point for AI interactions — and the new Galaxy Z series leads the next generation of mobile AI. Galaxy AI now functions across more apps and services, optimized for foldable designs. By understanding user needs and turning insights into action, Galaxy AI becomes more personal and proactive throughout the day.

Now Brief helps users stay informed with personalized insights tailored to their routines, interests and daily needs through expanded scenarios, customizable briefing cards and personalized recommendations. It now also surfaces security and privacy insights, helping users stay on top of potential risks and protective actions.
Now Nudge helps turn insights into action. When plans begin to take shape in a conversation, AI can surface relevant next steps such as checking a schedule, finding a place or saving a location. On foldables, users can continue the conversation side by side on larger displays.
Gemini Intelligence helps users move from request to result with fewer steps. Users can simply describe what they need or even add screen or image context. App automation can now work across more than 40 supported apps and services, with capabilities ranging from looking up tickets to finding a nearby restaurant and making a reservation. With Gemini Notebook, users can bring together notes, images, recordings, files and documents in one persistent workspace to collect, organize and develop their ideas. Drag-and-drop support in Split view makes the workflow even more intuitive, allowing users to easily add multiple files and images and turn their content into audio overviews, infographics, reports, meeting recaps, visual summaries, documents and more.
AI experiences become more connected and contextual when the new Galaxy Z series is connected with Galaxy Watch Ultra2, the Galaxy Watch9 series and even the upcoming intelligent eyewear. From wellness insights to daily routines and connected actions, Galaxy AI helps users move more seamlessly between devices with timely personalized support throughout the day.

Together, these experiences demonstrate how Galaxy AI is becoming a more proactive companion, enabling users to achieve more with less effort. Foldable form factors make these experiences easier to access during the day.

Security and Privacy Built Into the Experience

As AI becomes more personal, trust remains essential. Users need clarity on how their data is used and should maintain control over their experiences. Samsung’s new Galaxy Z series embeds this trust from the outset, ensuring data security while providing users with transparency and control over their information.

Samsung Knox secures every Galaxy device from the chip up, using a multi-layered system that includes on-device personalization and user-controlled cloud processing, along with future-ready protections like Samsung Knox Matrix for ecosystem-wide security. The Personal Data Engine (PDE) offers tailored AI experiences, and to safeguard PDE, Knox Enhanced Encrypted Protection (KEEP) provides encrypted storage for apps, while Knox Vault adds a physical barrier for sensitive data. Together, these protections are enhanced by Advanced Intelligence settings and Personal Data Intelligence, helping users manage how AI utilizes their personal data.

One UI 9 includes a new AI Assistant Activity dashboard that allows users to see all AI actions in one place. Instead of checking several apps to understand what is happening, users can easily view AI activities and go directly to the relevant agent for more information. The new Galaxy Z series also features Privacy Alerts that notify users of potential privacy risks, such as unwanted access to background permissions, enabling timely responses to these issues.

These updates enhance Galaxy’s security and privacy tools, including Auto Blocker, Theft Protection, Private Sharing, and Secure Wi-Fi. These improvements enable users to manage their personal data and AI use more effectively, focusing on transparency, clearer options, and stronger protections to keep AI experiences trustworthy.
