Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8 Specifications

Display

Although Samsung has yet to reveal the official specifications, recent leaks suggest the Galaxy Z Flip 8 will have a 6.9-inch foldable display with a 120Hz adaptive refresh rate and 2,600 nits peak brightness. It is likely to retain the 4.1-inch cover screen with an upgraded 120Hz refresh rate.

Performance, OS

Samsung is expected to use a dual-chip strategy for the Galaxy Z Flip 8. It is likely to run on the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset in markets like the US and China. Europe and India could see the launch of a variant with a 2nm Exynos 2600 chipset. It could pack 12GB LPDDR5X RAM as standard. It is likely to be available in 256GB or 512GB UFS 4.1 Storage options. Samsung used its in-house Exynos 2500 chipset in last year's Galaxy Z Flip 7.

The Galaxy Z Flip 8 is speculated to ship with Android 17 layered with One UI 9 out of the box. Samsung could guarantee seven years of OS updates for this model.

Camera, Battery

Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8 is rumoured to retain the same rear camera hardware as the Galaxy Z Flip 7, featuring a 50-megapixel primary camera accompanied by a 12-megapixel ultra-wide-angle camera. It could include a 10-megapixel selfie shooter.

The Galaxy Z Flip 8's battery is expected to be unchanged, with a 4,300mAh capacity. It is likely to offer the same 25W charging speed as its predecessor. It is likely to have a thin and lightweight form factor compared to the existing model. It could measure 6.1mm thickness in the unfolded state and 13.2mm when folded. It could weigh 180 grams, down from 188g on the Flip 7.
