After revealing the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 yesterday<\/a>, now Android Headlines<\/a> and renderer OnLeaks are back with a first look at the rumored Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide. It’s our first real glimpse of the alleged iPhone Fold<\/a> competitor that Samsung is expected to launch this summer.<\/p>\n

Apple’s first foldable is rumored to feature a 4:3 aspect ratio when unfolded, which will make its unfolded display feel closer to an iPad. It will also be wider making it more akin to the original Google Pixel Fold<\/a> or Oppo’s Find N2<\/a>, which were much squarer overall.<\/p>\n

<\/p>\n

The design, based on the leaked CAD renders, certainly looks wider and more squat, Leagues of Votann, anyone?<\/p>\n

Beyond the size, the phone appears to feature two cameras with the plateau style introduced with the Galaxy S26<\/a> series this year. It also looks like there will be pinhole front-facing cameras on both the cover display and the interior screen.<\/p>\n

Based on the CAD drawings, the Wide should have these dimensions when unfolded: 4.87 x 6.35 x .19 inches. Folded drops the width to 3.23 inches and the thickness to .38 inches.<\/p>\n

The Wide is supposed to feature a 7.6-inch inner display, which is slightly smaller than the 8-inch display expected on the Fold 8. It also has a smaller 5.4-inch cover screen, again a bit tinier than the 6.5-inch display on the Fold 8. The difference is that it’s wider.<\/p>\n

Those screen dimensions do match more closely to expectations for the iPhone Fold.<\/p>\n

Like the Fold 8, the Wide should sport Qualcomm’s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset. For storage and memory, it could have 12 or 16GB of RAM and 256GB, 512GB or 1TB options.<\/p>\n

Price and release date<\/p>\n

The Galaxy Z Fold 8 is Samsung’s flagship foldable and is expected to be priced around $2,000 similar to the pricing of last year’s Z Fold 7. With seemingly lesser specs, like the reduced number of cameras, it’s possible the Wide could be a little cheaper than the Fold 8.<\/p>\n

Especially if Samsung is trying to undercut the iPhone Fold. Rumors have suggested that Apple will price the iPhone Fold around $2,000.<\/p>\n

According to Android Headlines, the Wide should debut alongside the Z Fold 8 and the Galaxy Z Flip 8 during Samsung’s summer Unpacked event. Recently, Samsung has held its foldable event in early July.<\/p>\n

Unless something drastically changes, we expect a similar window this year. Usually, Samsung opens up pre-orders on the day of Unpacked and then the new phones are shipped out within a week or two.<\/p>\n
