Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 was launched in India and other global markets on Wednesday, during the Galaxy Unpacked July 2026 event. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 is the first wide-folding smartphone. The new shape marks a shift for the entire Galaxy Z Fold lineup, as the tech giant is now taking a different approach to book-style foldables. However, the company has kept the taller book-style foldable as the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, which is reminiscent of previous book-style foldables. In recognition of different use cases, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8’s cover display offers a 10:16 aspect ratio, while the foldable screen provides a 4:3 aspect ratio.
