I’m on my way home from Samsung’s big Galaxy Unpacked event and I’ve moved into the new Galaxy Z Fold 8. So, ask me anything!
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 is the biggest deal in Samsung’s foldables in quite a while. The Galaxy Z Fold 7’s thin form factor was important, yes, and the Galaxy Z TriFold was exciting, but neither were such a clear shift in the company’s direction.
And it leaves quite an impression.
I walked into my initial hands-on with the Galaxy Z Fold 8 earlier this week full of optimism and excitement. I was ready to see this new design in person and, right off the bat, I was hit with this sense of complete bewilderment. Where I expected to immediately fall in love with this new form factor, I left my first couple of hours conflicted. It wasn’t as good for video as I first expected, and this new screen just feels like it has a totally different set of priorities compared to the Galaxy Z Fold I’ve come to love over the past few generations.
