Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 specs leak
Samsung is expected to launch the Galaxy Z Fold8 this summer, most likely in July, around one year after its predecessor. Today a new leak from a tipster over on X purports to bring us a list of the Fold8's most important specs.
It will allegedly have an 8-inch folding screen, a 6.5-inch cover display (both with 120Hz refresh rates), dual-layer UTG for the folding screen, a laser-drilled display metal support plate, and the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy at the helm.

The phone will come with a 200MP main camera using a 1/1.3" type sensor, a 50MP ultrawide, and a 10MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom. There will also be a vapor chamber for cooling, and a 5,000 mAh battery with support for 45W wired charging. The Fold8 will be offered with 12/16GB of RAM and 256GB/512GB/1TB of storage, and will be thinner and lighter than its predecessor.
We already heard about the bigger battery, but a previous rumor also claimed the telephoto camera would be getting an upgrade compared to the Fold7, which this rumor contradicts. Obviously, we can't be sure which rumor is right on the matter, so take all of this with a healthy dose of salt.

To un-roll the screen element smoothly like a scroll is imagined to put almost no pressure on the bending points and a better display ultimately. That's why it is still in development and would be a superior mechanism.

Sliding screens add a mechanism with many small parts which kills long term reliability. The hinge is a much simpler design and can last an order of magnitude more, it is a better design because it simple. The crease is an easier problem to solve tha...

I think foldables should ditch the front screen for a much smaller viewfinder/notifications display on the back. Why sacrifice so much space to have a normal screen in addition to what the buyer is there for, the foldable big screen? Maybe the '...
