reportedly launch simply as the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 might be Samsungs worst-kept secret, and now weve seemingly seen the phone in the flesh for the first time.

A photo shared on DCInsides forum (via @UniverseIce ) shows what appears to
be the phone being used in a restaurant, presumably by a Samsung employee.
Its housed in an anti-leak case, designed to hide the details, but you can
see that it has a wider screen than a typical phone, and that theres a dual-lens camera on the back.

see below.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra appears tall and narrow, and has a triple-lens camera, much like its predecessor, while the Samsung Galaxy Z
Fold 8 (Wide) has a shorter, wider appearance.

That should make the latter phone good for viewing wide-screen content like movies when unfolded, but it leaves it with a rather unusual form factor when folded and used like a conventional smartphone. This is your first time

May 31, 2026 So, it will be interesting to see whether its successful, but given that the taller model apparently has the Ultra suffix, its likely that this new wide version will be cheaper, and its also expected to be closer to Apple s foldable iPhone Ultras form factor. Odd or not, then, its a form factor that Apple might be about to make popular.
