It features the same design inside and out, including the dual external camera setup that ditched the screen cutout that can still be found on the <a class=\"automatic\" href=\"https:\/\/www.phonearena.com\/reviews\/galaxy-z-flip-7-fe-review_id7492\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE<\/a>.<\/p>\n<p>\n            The Galaxy Z Flip 8 looks identical to its predecessor. | Images by My Mobiles        <\/p>\n<p>Only one change to be seen here<br \/>According to the leaked measurements of the Flip 8, the only real change is that it will be half a millimeter slimmer than its predecessor when folded. Differences between the Flip 7 and the Flip 8 in other measurements are practically negligible.Even when unfolded, the Flip 8 will look and feel the same as the Flip 7. Display sizes for both the inner and outer screens of the Galaxy Z Flip 8 are also the same as the Galaxy Z Flip 7: 6.9 inches and 4.1 inches respectively.<\/p>\n<p>There are some hardware upgrades<\/p>\n<p>                    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Samsung-Galaxy-Z-Flip-7-mid-2-1.webp.jpeg\" alt=\"Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 7 outer display\" class=\"lazy\" data-id=\"445952\" haswatermark=\"1\" loading=\"lazy\"\/>                            <\/p>\n<p>Though they might look similar, the Flip 8 will naturally be more powerful than the Flip 7. | Image by PhoneArena<\/p>\n<p>Though the Flip 8 might not be too different from the Flip 7 visually, there are going to be some welcome hardware upgrades this year.<\/p>\n<p>For starters, the phone will likely feature the Exynos 2600 processor that is also found across the <a class=\"automatic\" href=\"https:\/\/www.phonearena.com\/galaxy-s26-release-date-price-features-news\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">Galaxy S26<\/a> series. In addition, Samsung might use a slightly larger battery than the 4,300 mAh one found in the Flip 7. Lastly, the display will probably feature a slightly shallower crease too.<\/p>\n<p>Honestly, I\u2019m fine with it<br \/>Not every annual iteration of a smartphone needs to blow the world away. The Galaxy Z Flip 7 is an excellent foldable flagship and the Flip 8 seems to be that and a little bit more.<\/p>\n<p>That\u2019s not a bad thing. And with Samsung focusing on the new Galaxy Z Wide Fold to take on the <a class=\"automatic\" href=\"https:\/\/www.phonearena.com\/apple-foldable-iphone-fold-release-date-price-features-news-upgrades\" rel=\"nofollow noopener\" target=\"_blank\">foldable iPhone<\/a>, it was expected as well.<\/p>\n<p>    <img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/ca\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/04\/Get-Visible-as-low-as-20mo-for-1-year.-Limited-time-offer-with-code-FRESHSTART.webp.webp\" alt=\"Get Visible as low as $20\/mo for 1 year.
