Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is the start of something new, in a way that's a lot closer to how Samsung's non-folding phones have been operating for the past several years. Foldables are going Ultra, and it feels like Samsung is trying to push the idea that this isn't just a simple rebranding — there are some real changes behind the scenes.
There's more to new phones than adding flashier specs and bigger batteries, though, which is why I've been testing the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra to see if it's really worthy of referring to itself as such. The good news is that this isn't just a boring incremental update with some new box art. The Z Fold 8 Ultra may share the same look as its predecessor, the Galaxy Z Fold 7, but it actually feels like one of the more noteworthy upgrades to come out of Samsung for quite a few years.
