SAMSUNG is expected to hold a Galaxy Unpacked conference on the 22nd of this month, where it will launch the new generation of folding screen mobile phones Galaxy Z Fold8 series. As the successor to Z Fold7, the highest-end Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra has recently leaked new news. It is rumored that this much-anticipated folding model is expected to improve the shooting weaknesses of previous folding screen phones and truly provide a flagship-level camera experience!
According to Lanzuk, a tipster on South Korea’s Naver platform, the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra will inherit the core camera functions of the Galaxy S26 Ultra in an effort to narrow the photography gap between folding screen phones and traditional candy bar flagships. The news pointed out that the new machine will support the Video LUT function of professional-grade color correction, allowing users to directly apply film-grade color filters when recording videos. In addition, with the support of the latest imaging algorithms, the low-light night photography performance and image processing capabilities of mobile phones are also expected to be significantly improved.
In addition to optimizing image quality, this new foldable screen model is expected to add a number of software applications for cameras, including support for simultaneous dual-view video recording with front and rear lenses, further enriching video creators’ shooting flexibility. However, in terms of hardware specifications, current leaked information shows that the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra does not seem to have any major changes to the sensor. The market expects that the main camera module on the back will still maintain a 200-megapixel main lens, a 10-megapixel periscope telephoto lens that provides 3x optical zoom, and a set of 50-megapixel ultra-wide-angle lenses.
Although it has not completely replaced with new hardware, by introducing S26 Ultra-level algorithms and software packages, the overall shooting performance of Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra is still worthy of attention. SAMSUNG has confirmed that it will hold a press conference on July 22, and this top-tier discount is expected to appear simultaneously with the standard Galaxy Z Fold8 and the compact Galaxy Z Flip8.
