Galaxy Z Fold 8 Leaks Show Slimmer Cutout, Wide Variant

Published 28 April 2026

Samsung has revealed new details about its upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 8 series through leaks from tipster Ice Universe, including a slimmer front camera cutout on the standard model and dimensions for a redesigned wide variant expected to launch this summer alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 8.

The standard Galaxy Z Fold 8 will feature a punch-hole cutout measuring 2.5 millimeters, down from 3.5 millimeters on the Galaxy Z Fold 7, according to the leak. This change suggests Samsung has refined its under-display camera technology to maximize screen real estate on the inner folding display.

More notably, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide introduces a wider form factor aimed at a tablet-like experience when unfolded. Ice Universe shared precise dimensions: 123.9 by 82.2 by 9.8 millimeters when folded, expanding to 123.9 by 164.4 by 4.3 millimeters when open. The inner display adopts a 4:3 aspect ratio, reminiscent of iPads and early televisions, while the cover screen uses a 4.73:1 ratio. Screen sizes are rumored at 7.6 inches for the main panel and 5.4 inches for the outer one. These specs position it as notably thinner than predecessors, with an unfolded thickness of just 4.3 millimeters.
