- The standard Fold 8 will use a different camera sensor than the 200-megapixel ISOCELL HP2, as that sensor does not fit in the more compact design.

Samsung confirmed its next-generation foldable phones will be revealed July 22 and will feature new Flex Titanium display technology that eliminates the visible crease. The lineup includes the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, both with the crease-free display that also makes the devices thinner and stronger.
Leaked pricing indicates the phones will carry higher price tags in the US and Australia. Samsung will reportedly discontinue its free storage upgrade offer with these models. The standard Fold 8 will not include a 200-megapixel main camera because the sensor does not fit in the more compact design, and will instead use a different sensor. The phones may also feature faster wireless charging speeds.
