Samsung has officially brought its latest generation of foldable smartphones to Nepal with the launch of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra. The new Fold series introduces a completely redesigned approach to foldable smartphones, combining larger displays, thinner designs, powerful Snapdragon performance, improved cameras and smarter Galaxy AI features.
For anyone looking for the latest Samsung foldable phone in Nepal, the Galaxy Z Fold8 series offers two distinct choices. The standard Galaxy Z Fold8 focuses on portability, entertainment and everyday content consumption, while the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra takes things further with a larger display, a more advanced camera system and a bigger battery.
And if you are looking to buy Galaxy Z Fold8 in Nepal, both models are now available to order through Sabko Phone.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Series: What’s New?
Samsung unveiled the Galaxy Z Fold8 series globally in July 2026, introducing the standard Galaxy Z Fold8 alongside the company’s first Ultra-branded foldable, the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra. Global sales began in August across major markets.
This generation represents a significant change in Samsung’s foldable strategy.
The Galaxy Z Fold8 has a shorter and wider form factor designed to make watching videos, browsing social media, gaming and reading more comfortable. Its 7.6-inch internal display uses a 4:3 aspect ratio, while the cover display provides a more familiar smartphone experience.
The Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, meanwhile, is built around an 8-inch internal display and a more productivity-focused design. It is aimed at users who want a large workspace for multitasking, photography, video creation and demanding professional workloads.

Specifications can vary by market and storage configuration. Samsung’s official specifications confirm the major hardware differences between the two models.
Galaxy Z Fold8: Lighter, Wider and More Comfortable
One of the biggest changes to the Galaxy Z Fold8 is its new form factor.
Samsung has moved away from the taller proportions of previous Fold generations and introduced a wider design intended to make the phone more natural for everyday content consumption.
The Galaxy Z Fold8 features a 5.5-inch cover display and a 7.6-inch internal display. When opened, the internal screen uses a 4:3 aspect ratio, making it particularly suitable for movies, games and web browsing. It can also be rotated for a more natural 3:4 reading experience.
At just 201 grams, the Galaxy Z Fold8 is Samsung’s lightest Galaxy Z Fold yet.
Samsung has also introduced its Flex Titanium display structure, alongside refined hinge mechanics, to help create a slimmer and more durable foldable design while reducing the visibility of the crease over time.
Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra: Samsung’s Most Advanced Foldable Yet
The Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra is the premium model of the new series.
It features an 8-inch QXGA+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X main display with a 1-120Hz adaptive refresh rate and a 6.5-inch FHD+ cover display. Both displays are designed to provide a bright and smooth viewing experience, with Samsung’s Vision Booster technology for improved visibility.
Despite the larger display, Samsung has kept the Fold8 Ultra surprisingly thin. It measures just 4.1mm when unfolded and 8.9mm when folded, while weighing 215 grams.
This makes the Fold8 Ultra one of the thinnest and most premium large-screen foldable smartphones available today.
Camera: 200MP Comes to the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra
The camera system is another major difference between the two models.
The Galaxy Z Fold8 features a dual rear-camera setup consisting of:
- 50MP wide camera with OIS
- 50MP ultra-wide camera
- 10MP cover selfie camera
- 10MP inner selfie camera
The Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra takes the camera setup considerably further:
- 200MP wide camera with OIS
- 50MP ultra-wide camera
- 10MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom
- 10MP cover selfie camera
- 10MP inner selfie camera
The Ultra’s 200MP main camera also supports HDR capture at 200MP, while the new 50MP ultra-wide camera is designed for improved landscape, group and macro photography. The phone can also record 8K video.
For people who use their phone for photography, video creation or social media content, the Fold8 Ultra is clearly the more capable camera phone.
Performance: Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy
Both the Galaxy Z Fold8 and Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra are powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy.
This gives both foldables flagship-level performance for gaming, multitasking, photography, video editing and AI-powered applications.
The processor also includes dedicated AI processing capabilities, allowing Samsung to run more AI experiences directly on the device.
Storage options go up to 1TB, with configurations including 256GB, 512GB and 1TB depending on the model and market. The Fold8 Ultra also offers a 16GB RAM option with 1TB storage.
Battery and Charging
Battery life has also received attention this generation.
The Galaxy Z Fold8 comes with a 4,800mAh battery, which Samsung says can provide more than 26 hours of video playback. It supports 45W wired charging.
The Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra comes with a larger 5,000mAh battery, the largest battery Samsung has put into a Galaxy Z Fold. It supports 45W Super Fast Charging 2.0 and Samsung says its dual-path charging system can bring the phone to around 67% charge in 30 minutes under the specified conditions.
The Ultra also introduces Samsung’s silicon-carbon battery technology, allowing the company to increase capacity while maintaining its slim foldable design.
Galaxy AI and One UI 9
The Galaxy Z Fold8 series isn’t only about hardware.
Both phones run Android 17 with Samsung’s One UI 9, bringing a range of Galaxy AI-powered features designed around the larger foldable displays.
Samsung has also introduced features such as Now Nudge, which can suggest relevant next actions based on what you’re doing, as well as improved AI-powered content creation tools.
The larger screens make these AI and productivity features particularly useful because users can work with multiple applications at the same time.
Samsung also includes a six-month trial of Google AI Pro, which includes access to Google’s AI tools and 5TB of cloud storage for eligible Galaxy Z series purchases.
Galaxy Z Fold8 Series Price in the Global Market
The Galaxy Z Fold8 and Fold8 Ultra are positioned firmly in the premium smartphone segment.
