TL;DR<\/p>\n
Leaked renders suggest the Galaxy Z Fold 8 will feature a wider cover display, a lighter design, and new color options.
\nThe Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra appears to stick with a familiar design while packing the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy chip.
\nSamsung is expected to unveil both foldables on July 22, though pricing remains one of the biggest unanswered questions.<\/p>\n
Samsung has already locked in July 22 for its Galaxy Unpacked event<\/a> in London, where it\u2019s expected to unveil its next generation of foldables. But if a new leak is accurate, we may already know what the company\u2019s two flagship book-style foldables will look like before they ever step on stage.<\/p>\n Android Headlines<\/a> is sharing some official-looking renders of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra<\/a>, offering an early look at Samsung\u2019s upcoming foldables. The newly wide Galaxy Z Fold 8 is arguably the more interesting of the two. The leaked images show Samsung finally embracing a wider cover display, making the phone appear shorter and less narrow than previous Galaxy Fold models.<\/p>\n The renders also reveal the Fold 8 in Cream, Graphite, and Lavender, with a Pistachio finish reportedly reserved as Samsung\u2019s exclusive color.<\/p>\n Another detail that stands out is the camera setup. The renders don\u2019t reveal much about the camera hardware, but an earlier report<\/a> suggests the Galaxy Z Fold 8 could feature a 50MP main camera paired with a 50MP ultrawide sensor. Samsung also seems to be continuing its push toward thinner and lighter foldables, with the Fold 8 reportedly weighing around 200g. If that figure holds up, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 would be a few grams lighter than the Galaxy Z Fold 7<\/a>.<\/p>\n On the inside, the Fold 8 is expected to run Qualcomm\u2019s Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy chipset, paired with 12GB of RAM. Storage options are tipped to start at 256GB, with 512GB and 1TB variants also expected.<\/p>\n The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, meanwhile, appears to take a more familiar approach. Based on the leaked renders, it closely resembles last year\u2019s Fold design, suggesting Samsung may be focusing on internal upgrades rather than a dramatic redesign. The leaked color options include White, Black, and Purple, with the latter standing out as the most eye-catching of the bunch. Performance is expected to mirror the standard Fold 8, with the same Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy processor, 12GB of RAM, and 256GB of base storage.<\/p>\n The camera hardware also doesn\u2019t appear to be changing much. The report points to a 200MP main camera, a 10MP 3x telephoto lens, and a 50MP ultrawide sensor. Even if the hardware stays the same, Samsung could still improve image quality through tweaks such as a wider aperture or updated image processing.<\/p>\n Of course, leaked renders only tell part of the story. Samsung could still have a few surprises in store when it officially unveils the phones later this month. One of the biggest unanswered questions is pricing. With memory and component costs continuing to rise<\/a>, there\u2019s growing speculation<\/a> that Samsung\u2019s next foldables could end up costing more than the current generation.<\/p>\n![\"Exclusive](\"https:\/\/www.newsbeep.com\/us\/wp-content\/uploads\/2026\/07\/Exclusive-Samsung-Galaxy-Z-Fold-8-AH-41.webp\"\/ "\\"Exclusive")
