Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra

Without a doubt, the most surprising aspect of the Samsung unveiling is definitely the release of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, which is the first time that Samsung introduces its Ultra lineup in the foldable phone range.

Created for professionals and people who are looking for performance, the Fold 8 Ultra features an 8-inch Dynamic AMOLED 2X main display along with a generous 6.5-inch cover display, achieving peak brightness of 3,000 nits.

Even though it has such a large screen, Samsung still succeeded in reducing the thickness when unfolded to a mere 4.1mm.

As with its normal Fold, it uses the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy, although it gets a much improved camera system.

The rear setup includes:

• 200MP primary camera

• 50MP ultra-wide sensor

• 10MP telephoto camera with 3x optical zoom

The Fold 8 Ultra is also Samsung's first foldable equipped with a 5,000mAh battery, supporting 45W wired charging, 20W wireless charging, and Wireless PowerShare.

Samsung further differentiates the Ultra with exclusive AI capabilities, including Gemini Notebook, Now Brief, and expanded Galaxy AI experiences. Buyers also receive seven years of Android OS upgrades and security updates, making it one of Samsung's longest-supported smartphones.

Key features include:

• 8-inch AMOLED display

• Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5

• 200MP flagship camera

• 5,000mAh battery

• 16GB RAM

• Up to 1TB storage

• IP48 rating

• Android 17 with One UI 9

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8 Brings AI to the Cover Display

Also, the small foldable from Samsung gets some useful enhancements this year.

For starters, there is a new 4.1-inch FlexWindow in the Galaxy Z Flip 8 that makes the cover screen a fully AI-driven user interface where you can manage notifications, control your voice assistant, automate things and interact with the phone without unfolding it.

Under the hood, buyers will find a 6.9-inch Full HD+ Dynamic AMOLED 2X screen with a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate. Not like the Fold line, Samsung uses its proprietary Exynos 2600 SoC here.

Photography continues to focus on creator-friendly features with:

• 50MP primary camera

• 12MP ultra-wide camera

• 10MP selfie camera

Samsung's FlexCam, Mirror View, and FlipShot tools make it easier to capture selfies and videos using the external display.

The phone houses a 4,300mAh battery supporting 25W wired charging, 15W wireless charging, and Wireless PowerShare.

Other notable specifications include:

• Android 17

• One UI 9

• Wi-Fi 7

• IP48 rating

• Bluetooth 5.4

• Up to 512GB storage

• Seven years of software support

Galaxy Watch Ultra 2

The smartwatch is made using high-quality titanium body and has 10ATM water resistance and IP69K durability ratings.

Samsung has partnered with Mares to introduce a dedicated diving application later this year. Outdoor enthusiasts also benefit from new features like:

Galaxy Watch 9 Focuses on Everyday Health

The Galaxy Watch 9 targets mainstream users while retaining most of Samsung's newest health technologies.

Available in 40mm and 44mm sizes, it uses the same processor as the Ultra 2 but comes with a lighter aluminium body.

Users still receive:

• Sleep Apnea Detection

• Heart Health Score

• Daily Cardio Load

• Advanced fitness tracking

• AI-powered wellness insights

With pricing starting at ₹38,999, the Galaxy Watch 9 offers many flagship health features at a considerably lower price.

Samsung Continues to Push Foldables Into the Mainstream

With the new Galaxy line-up from Samsung, there is no doubt about how the company wants to bring more realism to its foldable smartphones and integrate artificial intelligence into its offerings. The new Galaxy Z Fold 8 aims to offer high-performance portable devices whereas the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra will be ideal for professionals with top-of-the-line cameras, large displays, and battery life. On the other hand, the Galaxy Z Flip 8 will improve daily usage with its AI-equipped Flex Window.

As far as wearables are concerned, Samsung has launched Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 and Galaxy Watch 9 with better health features, more durable builds, and brighter screens. Pre-orders have already started for both watches and Galaxy Z Flip 8, and the sale of foldables will start on August 7.
