Samsung Schedules July 22 Unpacked to Reveal Three New Foldables Including a Z Fold8 Ultra

The move signals Samsung’s push to market foldables as top‑tier phones and to get ahead of an expected Apple folding iPhone.

Overview

  • Samsung has set a Galaxy Unpacked event for Wednesday, July 22 to show its next foldable lineup, the company has confirmed.
  • Leaks and supply‑chain images report three models: Galaxy Z Fold8, a newly named Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, and the compact Galaxy Z Flip8.
  • Reports describe a wider, wallet‑like proportion for the standard Fold8 and say the Flip8 will keep its clamshell form as the pocketable option.
  • Supply‑chain images reported by PhoneArena and others show the Fold8 Ultra with a much subtler screen crease, a development that would address a long‑running user complaint about visible fold lines.
  • Unconfirmed leaks also attribute flagship upgrades to the Ultra model—rumored Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5, improved cameras, larger battery and faster charging—and industry coverage estimates retail availability around late August.
