Samsung sells three foldables in India, and each one folds a different way. The Galaxy Z Fold8 leads the range with a new shape, opening sideways into a 4:3 screen made to sit in one hand at 201 grams. Above it, the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra opens into an 8-inch display. Smallest of the three, the Galaxy Z Flip8 shuts into a 75.4 x 85.7mm block that lies flat in a jeans pocket at 180 grams.All three run Android 17 and One UI 9, all three carry the same Galaxy AI layer, and all three sit on an Armor Aluminum frame rated IP48. Shape is where the decision sits. Three ways of folding, three answers to one question: what should a phone be when it is closed?About The AuthorAt heart, I am a storyteller drawn to the watershed moments that bend the technology landscape. I braid narrative with data, humanise statistics, and trace the arc from first spark to world-changing impact. My reportage, features and reviews are witty, sardonic, visual and vivid, using anecdote to illuminate rather than eviscerate.
As a technology journalist with over sixteen years of experience, I have travelled the world and the seven seas, covered every major tech conference worth its lanyard, chronicled the defining breakthroughs of the last decade and a half, and played a pivotal role in launching some of India’s most important technology publishing platforms across web, print and TV.
