Samsung is getting ready to launch two new Fold phones –  the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and a bigger Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide. The regular Fold 8 is similar to previous models, but the Fold 8 Wide is larger and feels more like a tablet. It is designed for people who want a bigger screen. Now, new information reveals that the size of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide.

According to Android Headline, the biggest change is the wider design of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide. The main difference between the two phones is size and shape. The Fold 8 has a more square-like design, while the Fold 8 Wide has a 3:4 aspect ratio. This makes it wider and taller, which gives more space for apps and media.

The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide’s shape is similar to the Apple iPad, making it easier to use like a small tablet. Even when the phone is turned on its side, the Wide version is still taller and gives more screen space.

When we look at the size, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 measures 158.4 x 143.2 x 4.5mm when opened. The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide measures 123.9 x 161.4 x 4.9mm. This means the Wide version is slightly thicker and taller, which may not seem like much on paper but will feel bigger in your hand. The wider screen makes it better for multitasking, watching videos, or reading documents.

Both phones are expected to be announced at the Samsung Unpacked event in July or August 2026. Samsung is likely releasing them before Apple launches its own foldable device. The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide could be a good choice for anyone who wants a bigger screen without carrying a separate tablet.
