<\/a><\/p>\nThe Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 has now appeared in an FCC filing <\/a>ahead of its July debut, revealing:<\/p>\n A Qualcomm modem.<\/p>\n Support for Ultra-Wideband (UWB), which unlocks more precise location tracking and interference-resistant connections.<\/p>\n Wi-Fi 7 and NFC.<\/p>\n Support for wireless charging and reverse wireless charging.<\/p>\n Support for satellite connectivity.<\/p>\n DisplayPort functionality, which transmits high-bandwidth video and audio from your device to an external monitor or TV.<\/p>\n Do note that Samsung typically pairs its in-house modems with its Exynos processors. However, now that we know the Galaxy Z Fold 8 will sport a Qualcomm modem, it is quite likely that the squat foldable will be powered by a Snapdragon SoC.<\/p>\n As we reported recently,\u00a0Samsung is planning to rebrand<\/a>\u00a0the direct successor to the Galaxy Z Fold 7 as the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, while retaining the simpler Galaxy Z Fold 8 appellation for its wider and shorter sibling – previously called the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide – meant to go toe-to-toe with the upcoming Apple iPhone Ultra.<\/p>\n According to Ice Universe, Samsung has managed to\u00a0substantially reduce the appearance of the crease<\/a>\u00a0on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 duo, akin to what Oppo has achieved with its Find N6 foldable.<\/p>\n We reported back in January 2026 that Samsung was likely to\u00a0apply Ultra-Thin Glass (UTG)<\/a>\u00a0on the top and bottom layers of the display for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 duo as it aims to reduce the dreaded crease by at least 20 percent. But that’s not all. According to a South Korean publication, the UTG on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 will be substantially thicker than the one on the Z Fold 7, coming in at 60\u03bcm<\/a> vs. the 45\u03bcm one on the Fold 7. Of course, this added thickness will make the panel more durable, but will come at the cost of a potentially more aggravated display crease.<\/p>\n What’s more, Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 will weigh 201 grams,<\/a> and sport a 4,800mAh battery with support for wired charging at 45 watts. It will span a thickness of just 4.5mm when unfolded, and will constitute “the lightest large foldable smartphone ever released by any brand,” according to Ice Universe.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t \t\t\t\t Elsewhere, the Fold 8 will come equipped with a new 50MP sensor, while natively supporting the 24MP mode without the need to use Samsung’s Camera Assistant app.<\/p>\n \t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t\t \n\t\t\t\t\tAbout the author<\/a>: Writing is my one incontrovertible passion.
