   “It should have magnets so it could match pretty much every other premium phone on the market”
   Every other premium phone on the market = Only Apple and Google phones….
   Only a person in the states could say that sentence.
   You people invented capitalism, how could you be ok with having so little to choose from, while everywhere else has so many great options.

   Using 3 apps is only cramped if you don’t place all three apps side by side

   Price and lack of protection is the challenge. If you can’t utilize it in the same way as a regular phone I’d keep away at this price point.

   Wallahi absolutely should have a magnet considering Samsung turns around and charges 60 bucks for a little thin piece of clear plastic with mag safe

   I’ve had the Z Fold 7 for about 8 months and I always upgrade to the newest Samsung models at least yearly. My Fold 8 arrived last week in Lavender and I can’t wait to set it up and start using it in the wild. I actually didn’t know about tent mode on the Fold 8. One of my favorite features of the Fold 7 is you can fold it in almost any angle. I used table top mode pretty frequently. The Fold 8 hinge has set positions and will snap open or close on those little minute angles, so it can’t do that 90 degree, table top, L sit position like the Fold 7, so I was a little disappointed about that. So I ordered a magnet stand from Oh Snap just in case. But the tent mode pointed out on this video looks like it’ll do the trick! Great review! Thanks for sharing!

    I think a lot of us aren’t gonna be too fussy when it comes to the fold because you know it’s a fold you gotta expect some folding.
    I might actually buy this one instead of the Apple. I’m excited about both.

    The cover display doesn’t have the anti-reflective coating. Buy the film from Samsung. Makes a huge difference!

    This is the way to do fold properly, Samsung nailed it now with 8

    There’s nothing pro-grade about the “Ultra” cameras. Yes, the 200mp main is better… But the 4yr old 3x 10mp telephoto is the worst zoom lens on any foldable. There’s nothing Ultra about the Ultra.

    I admire the innovation Samsung continues to push. I had a chance to toy around with it at Bestbuy and the form factor felt so natural. I’m so tempted to ditch my iPhone and pick this up instead.

    When iPhone gets to Ultra 3 with bigger and cheaper price I will upgrade from my 17 Pro Max to a foldable.

    I went to ATT to check out the phone, the Z fold 8 and the Z fold 8 Ultra which looks great. My device currently is the Z fold 7. But I think i’m gonna wait until the fold nine.Cause I hear the camera aray is going to be similar to what it’s going to be on the S 27 Ultra.

    If only the Z fold 8 still had flex mode, and a third telephoto camera. Seemed a waste that they did not include those

    They call this a “phone”, but in all the reviews I’ve watched nobody has ever had it up to their ear using it as a “phone”. I wonder how awkward this form factor is when it’s in telephone mode?

    I had a Z Fold 7 and it altered the way I carried and used phones in a bad way. A slab phone became my daily carry. If a foldable fits someone’s lifestyle that’s great! But you have to be honest with yourself about how you will use it. $2000 phone, IP48, frequent outdoor use. Thermals? New type of screen. I’ll let everyone give it a real world test first.

    I think the Fold 8 wide will do what most people do with a phone. Email, social media, video, inside camera shots. It does those things VERY well evidently. A winner for Samsung, but not for everyone. Fortunately you can hit about every size slab/foldable price point in in the Samsung lineup. Something for everyone.

    I received my Z Fold 8 1TB today, and I have my Z Fold 6 1TB sitting right beside it. I spent about 30 minutes playing with them side by side, and for those first 30 minutes, I was convinced I was sending the Fold 8 back. I even refused to put my SIM card in it. 😂

    No UDC, no S Pen support, and I’m losing some inner-screen real estate. Those were all big negatives for me.

    I started comparing the displays and immediately noticed that the colors on the Z Fold 6 are more vivid, while the Fold 8 has a cleaner, sharper-looking display. But honestly, I was mostly noticing all the things my Fold 6 could do that the Fold 8 couldn’t.

    So I sat the Fold 8 down for about an hour and walked away from it.

    When I came back, I picked it up again and just started using it instead of constantly comparing it to my Fold 6 side by side.

    That’s when I fell in love with it.

    There’s just something about that wider aspect ratio. Once I stopped looking for everything the Fold 8 was missing and actually started using the phone, it started to feel completely different.

    Then it hit me: this thing is actually better than my Fold 6. 🤦‍♂️

    And of course, instead of just being happy with that realization, I immediately went into a whole new spiral thinking…

    “Damn, should I have gotten the Fold 8 Ultra?” 🤣

    If you want the most pro level shots you should probably step up to a digital camera.

    First of all, what’s the real cost of that phone? $2,149.00 + Sale Tax: 7.00 = 2,299.43 I have an iPhone it’s five years old. Why do I need this? I live on a boat to be precise Nordhavn-63 trawler It’s over all length 62′ 6″ / 19.05M. I got it new. It’s winterized. I’m in the north of Europe. I have monitors and screens in my pilot house four of them. No, I have five. I have a TV set there too. It’s just folded up. I have a gaming PC in my state room. I have a 75 inch flat panel TV in the salon. Laptop, and a tablet. I need the phone to do what. For the money you’re talking I can stay how many days at a marina. How much diesel can I buy? Food Internet access. And I get a slightly bigger screen. To do what with. I’m doing fine with the phone I got. It’ll be just my luck that foldable phone will fall in the ocean.
