Samsung is working on One UI 9 and the firmware also features visuals of the upcoming foldable phones: Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Fold8 Wide.

The new foldable phones are reportedly being unveiled on July 22 in London. Earlier, we’ve seen their potential design in leaked CAD renders. Now, the One UI 9 software itself revealed the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Z Fold8 Wide.

The pictures surfaced in One UI 9 look familiar to the leaked renders. The appearance of the devices confirms their monikers, including the Galaxy Z Fold 8 (codenamed Q8) and Galaxy Z Fold8 Wide (codenamed H8).

Galaxy Z Fold 8 looks identical to its predecessor. We may see upgrades in build quality, screen crease, and hinge technology. Major aspects, such as thickness and weight, would also see a slight generational improvement.

Galaxy Z Fold8 Wide comes with a camera design familiar to the S25 Edge. It has a dual camera setup on the back, surrounded by a camera bump. The LED flashlight isn’t shown in the visuals, but they were in CAD renders.

Samsung is also working on the Galaxy Z Flip 8. The next clamshell foldable phone may be almost the same as its predecessor. However, the device may use a new hinge technology for better durability and crease resistance.

The Fold 8 and Flip 8 will succeed their predecessors and continue the portfolio. Meanwhile, the Fold8 Wide is coming to compete with Apple’s first foldable. The form factor is like a passport to deliver more practical usability.
