Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 review: Wide for the win
Tom's Guide Verdict I thoroughly tested the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and I feel like this could be the new form factor to beat for foldables. It’s compact and light yet delivers a big screen when you want it. I especially appreciate the anti-reflective coating and that the crease is less noticeable.
