Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 was officially released on July 22nd, which mainly brings a new form of wide folding and battery life upgrade. The standard version adopts a 7.6-inch 4:3 ratio design for the internal screen, and the overall weight is controlled at around 201 grams.
The internal screen ratio is more practical: the standard version adopts a 4:3 ratio internal screen, which looks like a small tablet when unfolded, making split screen office more convenient. Both screens support 120Hz adaptive high refresh rate.
Unified high-end chip: The entire series is equipped with the fifth generation Snapdragon 8 Ultimate Edition for Galaxy chip, with a starting memory of 12GB and a maximum optional storage combination of 16GB+1TB.
Improvement of hinge: Abandoning the average damping design, stronger damping when unfolded at large angles, and improved crease control compared to the previous generation.
The battery size has significantly increased: the standard version has increased from 4400mAh of Z Fold 7 to 4800mAh, and the Ultra version has reached 5000mAh. The official video playback time can reach 26 hours.
Fast charging is still a weakness: the entire series supports 45W wired charging and 25W wireless charging, which still lags behind the hundred watt fast charging of domestic foldable screens.
