TL;DR Leaker Ice Universe suggests the wide-body Galaxy Z Fold 8 will allegedly weigh just 201g, giving it a distinct weight advantage over competitors like HUAWEI and Apple.
The Fold 8 is also rumored to feature a 50MP sensor with native 24MP mode support, eliminating the need to download the Camera Assistant module. It could also come with a 4,800mAh battery and 45W charging.
Ice Universe also suggests the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra could increase its battery capacity to 5,000mAh and support wired charging at 45W, while becoming slightly thinner at 4.1mm.
We’ve seen a plethora of leaks for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra over the past week. Past leaks suggest the wider-body foldable will be called the “Fold 8,” while the standard Fold form factor we’ve come to know and love will be rebranded as the “Fold 8 Ultra.” The Fold 8 was spotted in public, and dummy units for the Fold 8 and the Fold 8 Ultra were also seen recently. Now, renowned leaker Ice Universe is sharing new information about both foldables.
According to Ice Universe on X, the (wide) Galaxy Z Fold 8 will weigh 201g.
The leaker mentions that the HUAWEI Pura X Max weighs 229g. Apple’s iPhone Fold/iPhone Ultra is also expected to be heavier than the Galaxy Z Fold 8, so Samsung is expected to have a clear weight advantage, coming in lighter than even some conventional glass slab smartphones.
