Among all the models, the much-speculated newer variant, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide, or possibly the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, stands out in a new white color finish with a dual-camera housing on the rear.
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide has wider, shorter dimensions, making it look more like the recently leaked iPhone Ultra foldable.
The leaked image also shows other foldables, including the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Flip 8, that feature designs similar to their predecessors.
With this Galaxy Z Fold 8 lineup leak, we speculate Samsung will focus more on the new “wide fold” rather than on major upgrades to its existing flagship foldables.

It’s pretty much confirmed that Samsung is making three foldables instead of two: the Galaxy Z Flip 8, the Galaxy Z Fold 8, and the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide.
There are rumors of a possible Ultra Flip phone called the Galaxy Z Flip 8 Ultra with bezel-less displays on both the inside and cover screens. This is still just a rumor, so take it with a grain of salt.
All three foldables will be powered by the latest Qualcomm Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy processor, an overclocked chip made for Samsung flagships.

Alongside the Snapdragon processor, all Galaxy Z foldable and flippable phones will get up to 12GB of LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.1 storage: up to 512GB for the Z Flip 8, and up to 1TB for the Z Fold 8 and Z Fold 8 Wide.
Even this year, Samsung has chosen not to use the Si-C (silicon-carbon) battery.
Starting with the much-anticipated Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide/Ultra, the phone is said to get wider dimensions: Folded Dimensions: 123.9 mm (H) × 82.2 mm (W) × 9.8 mm (T) and Unfolded Dimensions: 123.9 mm (H) × 161.4 mm (W) × 4.9 mm (T).
Fold 8 Wide/Ultra will get a 7.6-inch inner wide display and a 5.4-inch outer cover display.
Unlike the Z Fold 8, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide foldable will have a dual-camera setup on the rear, with a 50MP main sensor and a 50MP ultra-wide.
On the front, the phone is expected to get a 10MP selfie shooter alongside a 10MP separate cover display camera.
On the battery side, we expect a 4,800mAh battery with 45W fast charging support.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8 is expected to feature a 6.9-inch foldable display inside and a 4.1-inch cover display below the rear dual-camera setup, which includes a 50MP main sensor and a 50MP Ultrawide. On the front, we might see a single 10MP selfie shooter.
The phone will have a 4300mAh lithium-ion battery with 23W fast charging.
Moving to the Galaxy Z Fold 8, the phone will have taller dimensions with an 8-inch LTPO foldable panel inside and a 6.5-inch cover display outside.

There are rumors that the Galaxy Z Fold 8 will focus on being the lightest foldable Samsung has ever built.
On the rear, we expect a triple-camera setup with the Galaxy S26 Ultra’s 200MP main sensor, a 50MP ultra-wide, and a 10MP telephoto sensor, plus a 10MP selfie shooter and a 10MP cover display camera.
We don’t expect any significant changes to the battery, as it will remain the same 5,000mAh lithium-ion battery with 45W fast-charging support.
