Galaxy Z Flip8: A revolution in slim and lightweight design and 2nm chip performance.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Flip8 sets a new standard for foldable phones with its weight of 180g, powerful Exynos 2600 chip, and FlexWindow secondary display that expands up to 4.1 inches.
At the Galaxy Unpacked event, Samsung officially unveiled the Galaxy Z Flip8, a new generation foldable phone with radical upgrades in terms of slimness and lightness, the processing power of its 2nm chip, and the largest FlexWindow secondary display system ever.
Optimized design: Samsung's thinnest and lightest foldable phone.
The most notable improvement on the Galaxy Z Flip8 lies in its feel and portability. Samsung has successfully optimized the device's weight to just 180g, comparable to traditional bar-style phones. When fully unfolded, the device is only 6.1 mm thick, setting a record as the thinnest and lightest Flip in the company's history.
Despite prioritizing a slim and lightweight design, the device's durability is ensured thanks to its sturdy Armor Aluminum frame and Corning Gorilla Glass Victus 2. Notably, it boasts an IP48 water and dust resistance rating, providing better protection for internal components against environmental impacts.
The edges of the device have been subtly refined, creating a natural folding and unfolding experience for the user. The fingerprint sensor continues to be integrated into the power button on the side, ensuring fast response speed and convenient operation.
A groundbreaking configuration with the Exynos 2600 chip built on a 2nm process.
The Galaxy Z Flip8 marks a significant leap forward in hardware with its Exynos 2600 chip, manufactured using an advanced 2nm process. This processor boasts a 10-core architecture, combined with the Xclipse 960 GPU, delivering superior graphics performance. The device comes with 12GB of RAM and UFS 4.0 internal storage starting from 256GB, ensuring smooth multitasking capabilities.
In terms of software, the device runs One UI 9 on Android 16 with a commitment to up to 7 years of updates. A technological highlight is the Now Brief feature in the Galaxy AI ecosystem, which automatically aggregates weather, schedule, and traffic information into intuitive content cards directly on the secondary screen.
Dual display experience: FlexWindow and LTPO home screen
The FlexWindow external display has been upgraded to a 4.1-inch screen with ultra-thin bezels of just 1.25mm. Utilizing a 120Hz Super AMOLED panel with a peak brightness of 2,600 nits, this screen is not only for viewing notifications but is also optimized to run 16 popular apps simultaneously and offers deep customization of widget interfaces.
The phone's main display uses a 6.9-inch Foldable Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X panel, supporting a 120Hz refresh rate and 2,600 nits of brightness. Notably, Samsung has significantly reduced the crease in the middle of the screen compared to its predecessor, resulting in a seamless touch experience.
Elevate your photography with the ProVisual Engine algorithm.
Despite retaining the same camera hardware specifications with a 50MP main sensor, 12MP wide-angle lens, and 10MP selfie camera, the Galaxy Z Flip8 delivers superior image quality thanks to a new processing algorithm. ProVisual Engine and AI Bokeh technology help reproduce natural skin tones and create more accurate background blur.
The flexible folding capability allows the device to function as a hands-free tripod. The new Horizontal Lock feature ensures the horizon remains straight when filming while constantly moving.
