Samsung is all set to unveil its next-generation foldable smartphones on July 22, 2026. The upcoming foldables have appeared in several unofficial renders and leaked case images over the past few months. However, a new report from Android Headlines has now shared what are said to be the official product renders of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8, Galaxy Z Fold 8, and Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra. Here’s more on that.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8 Official Renders Leaked
In an exclusive report, Android Headlines has shared renders of the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8 in Cream, Pink, and Graphite colour options. However, the previously rumoured Mint variant is missing from the images. The report suggests that this green shade may be sold exclusively through Samsung’s official store instead of retail channels.
In terms of design, the Galaxy Z Flip 8 closely resembles its predecessor. However, the upcoming foldable is expected to be priced higher with the 256GB model reportedly costing €1,299, while the 512GB version may be priced at €1,499, marking an increase of around €100 to €180 over the previous generation.
The leaked images show a foldable display with a centred punch-hole camera and slim, evenly sized bezels that are slightly raised to offer added protection when the device is folded. The power button, which also doubles as the fingerprint scanner along with the volume keys is positioned on the right edge.
On the outside, the cover display occupies nearly half of the rear panel and stretches across almost the entire front when the phone is folded, leaving space only for the camera module. The two rear cameras are arranged horizontally in the upper-left corner and are integrated within the cover display itself, just like on the Galaxy Z Flip 7. An LED flash sits alongside the cameras, while the handset continues to feature a flat-frame design.
Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8 – Rumoured Specifications
Although Samsung has not confirmed any hardware details, leaks suggest that the Galaxy Z Flip 8 could launch with two chipset variants depending on the market. One version is tipped to use the Exynos 2600, while another could feature the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy processor.
The foldable is expected to come with 12GB LPDDR5X RAM and UFS 4.0 or UFS 4.1 storage. It is also rumoured to weigh around 180 grams, making it slightly lighter than its predecessor.
Battery details leaked so far point to a 4,300mAh battery with 25W wired charging support. For photography, Samsung is expected to retain the 50MP primary camera and 12MP ultrawide camera from the Galaxy Z Flip 7.
The main display is rumoured to remain a 6.9-inch Foldable Dynamic LTPO AMOLED 2X panel with a 120Hz refresh rate, while the outer display is expected to measure 4.1 inches and use a Super AMOLED panel with a 120Hz refresh rate. These specifications are based on leaks and remain unconfirmed.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Leaked Renders
The leaked renders also showcase the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 in Cream, Lavender, and Graphite colour options. A Pistachio variant expected to be exclusive to Samsung is not visible in the leaked images.
According to the report, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 could start at €1,999. Despite its premium pricing, the device is said to feature a more compact form factor that reportedly resembles the Apple iPhone Ultra, which is expected to debut in September. Apart from a smaller display and the absence of a telephoto camera, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 is said to offer specifications similar to those of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra.
The handset is expected to feature a 5.5-inch QHD+ outer display with a 16:10 aspect ratio, while the inner screen is tipped to be a 7.6-inch QHD+ panel with a 4:3 aspect ratio. This wider layout is expected to provide a landscape viewing experience immediately after unfolding the device, eliminating the need to rotate the phone as is common with many current foldables.
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 is also rumoured to be exceptionally slim and lightweight. It is expected to weigh around 200-201 grams, making it even lighter than the Galaxy Z Fold 7. The phone could measure just 4.5mm thick when unfolded and 9.7mm when folded.
Under the hood, the foldable is expected to be powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy chipset, the same processor used in the Galaxy S26 Ultra. It is likely to be paired with 12GB RAM and 256GB storage as the base configuration with 512GB and 1TB storage options also expected.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra Official Renders Leaked
The leaked official images also reveal the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra in Cream, Graphite, and Violet Shadow colours. Another shade called Green Shadow is also expected to be offered.
The premium foldable is tipped to start at €2,199 for the 256GB storage variant. In terms of design, Samsung appears to have retained the same overall look as the previous generation with the primary changes limited to the colour lineup.
The renders show the familiar triple rear camera arrangement running vertically along the outer edge of the device. Samsung also continues with its squared-off design language rather than using different shapes on either side of the hinge.
Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra – Expected Specifications
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is expected to use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy processor, the same chipset found in the Galaxy S26 lineup. According to the report, Samsung and Qualcomm have already hinted at this through Weibo.
The foldable is expected to offer 12GB RAM and 256GB internal storage in its base variant. One of the biggest expected upgrades is a 5,000mAh battery bringing it in line with the Galaxy S26 Ultra, along with 45W fast wired charging replacing the slower charging speeds of previous generations.
On the camera side, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is tipped to retain a 200MP primary camera, 10MP 3x telephoto camera, and 50MP ultrawide camera. However, Samsung may introduce improvements similar to those seen on the Galaxy S26 Ultra including aperture enhancements designed to capture more light.
These camera details like the rest of the specifications are based on leaks and have not yet been officially confirmed.
