This has led to fresh speculation that Samsung is preparing to introduce a wider foldable phone this year. The change could make the outer display feel more like a regular smartphone instead of the tall and narrow screen found on previous Galaxy Z Fold models.

Although Samsung has not confirmed the device’s name, reports suggest this wider design could debut as the Galaxy Z Fold 8, while the traditional book-style model may be introduced as the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra.

What to expect from the Galaxy Z Fold 8 lineup

If recent leaks are accurate, Samsung could launch two different Fold models for the first time. The standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 is tipped to feature a wider 5.5-inch cover display with a more practical aspect ratio, along with a 7.6-inch inner AMOLED display. It is also expected to measure around 4.5mm when unfolded and weigh close to 201 grams.

Meanwhile, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is expected to retain Samsung’s familiar taller Fold design while bringing premium hardware and features.

If this strategy turns out to be true, buyers will have the option to choose between two different foldable designs instead of just one.
