6 reviews from 6 critics“The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is a nice refinement over its predecessor and an excellent foldable in its own right. However, Samsung's improvements for 2026 aren't nearly enough to make anyone who bought the previous model want to run out an upgrade.”
“But with no support for the S Pen stylus and no Privacy Display, it’s not Ultra in the same way as the Galaxy S26 Ultra.”
“The Z Fold 8 Ultra might be a great get for anyone who doesn't already have a foldable, but Z Fold 7 owners can likely wait until the next big revision to upgrade.”
“But it's also only incrementally better than last year's model, $100 more expensive, and not as exciting as the Z Fold 8.”
“The Fold8 really feels like the mainstream book‑like folding smartphone anyone with a passing interest (and the cash) should finally consider.”
Samsung didn't have to change much this year because its hardware is just that good.
