Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 review: your passport to a folding phone future

The Guardian — Tech · · International · Data Breaches

Samsung has released the Galaxy Z Fold 8, a foldable phone with an unusually wide, passport-shaped form factor that opens into a tablet-sized screen. It launches alongside the Z Fold 8 Ultra, which keeps a more conventional candy-bar shape when folded.
