9to5Google • • technology
Key Points:
- Samsung's upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 8 "Wide" model will feature 30% thicker ultra-thin glass (60μm) compared to the Galaxy Z Fold 7's 45μm, enhancing durability and display quality.
- The "Ultra" version of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 will retain the 45μm ultra-thin glass thickness, similar to the Galaxy Z Fold 7, focusing on flexibility over thickness.
- Thicker ultra-thin glass improves display durability and drop resistance but may increase the risk of random cracks when folding, a trade-off Samsung continues to balance.
- Samsung has progressively increased the ultra-thin glass thickness in its foldables, with a 50% jump from Galaxy Z Fold 6 to Fold 7, and now a further increase for the "Wide" Fold 8.
- Both Galaxy Z Fold 8 models are expected to launch on July 22, continuing Samsung's innovation in foldable smartphone technology.
