The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8 is coming, joining the Galaxy Z Fold 8 at Galaxy Unpacked later this summer. While 2026 is bound to be a big year for foldables, fans of Samsung's flip-foldables may not want to celebrate. Rumors have been remarkably quiet about what the next Z Flip will offer, which suggests that we may not be getting any major upgrades.
To make matters worse, rumors suggest that this may be the last ever Samsung flip phone — at least for the time being. The rising cost of manufacturing, along with the Z Flip lineup's general stagnation, means that the Z Flip 9 may not happen. It's too early to say for sure, but it would be quite the shake-up in the foldable world if that were to happen.
