According to tipster Ice Universe (translated from Chinese) on Weibo, Samsung's purported Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra will offer a significantly brighter panel than its predecessor.

Meanwhile, the purported Samsung Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 is tipped to offer a peak brightness of 5,000 nits. This is said again believed to be a notable jump over the 3,000 nits supported by the current Galaxy Watch Ultra. Previous reports also indicated that Samsung could utilise the latest OCF (On-Cell Film) OLED technology, which was first showcased at the Mobile World Congress (MWC) earlier this year.

Apart from display improvements, the tipster also claimed faster charging across Samsung's next-generation foldable lineup. The Galaxy Z Fold 8, Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, and Galaxy Z Flip 8 are all tipped to support 45W wired fast charging, compared to the 25W charging available on the Galaxy Z Fold 7.

Per previous reports, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra could pack a 5,000mAh battery, while the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide may feature a smaller battery capacity. But regardless of battery capacity, all three Samsung foldables are expected to benefit from the same 45W charging support.

Recent certification listings, such as on the US Federal Communications Commission database, have already indicated that Samsung is preparing to launch the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, Galaxy Z Flip 8, Galaxy Watch 9, and Galaxy Watch Ultra 2 in the coming weeks.
