Amazon is selling the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 for $1,599.99, a $300 markdown from its $1,899.99 list price, representing a 16% discount. The retailer says this matches the second-lowest price recorded since the foldable's launch.
A widely shared video demonstrates how a nano-texture matte coating on a conceptual foldable iPhone, dubbed the 'iPhone Duo,' reduces glare and reflections compared to glossy screens on existing Android foldables. The clip argues that removing or avoiding this matte layer would make the display harder to view in certain lighting conditions.
Google's Android Ecosystem President Sameer Samat told Tom's Guide that as foldable phones grow more popular, developers see greater incentive to build proper layouts for them. He said Google has simplified its developer tools and is in talks with app makers who haven't yet optimized for foldable screens, noting Apple's rumored iPhone Duo could add momentum to that shift.
