Title: Samsung solves the biggest problem of its fold smartphones, just not with the Ultra
Post by: Redaktion on September 12, 2026, 11:58:37
An ultra-thin body and an extra-large OLED screen, but is it practical for everyday use? With the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, the unusual display format may limit its usability. Videos and apps, particularly in split-screen mode, often look out of place. Samsung's smaller Galaxy Z Fold8 shows how it might be done better.

Was a huge fan of the Z Fold 8 on paper before it came out coming from an OG Pixel Fold. Then tried them both with the Ultra in a shop and realized going wider than the Pixel simply damages ergonomics. So we went from too tall phones to too wide phones instead of simply producing the golden middle - not so tall not so wide which I guess was solved 10 years ago and companies had nothing to do anymore haha.
