Galaxy Z Fold 8 Official Renders Leak
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 is right around the corner, and the leaks are finally giving us a clear look at what to expect. A while back, we got an early leak detailing the names of the upcoming colors, and we even tried to visualize them using some conceptual renders.
Now, the official-looking renders have fully leaked ahead of the July 22, 2026, Unpacked event in London, revealing exactly what these colors look like on the final hardware.
This year, Samsung is changing things up by offering two totally different form factors. Instead of just one main flagship, the lineup is splitting into a shorter, wider passport style called the standard Fold 8, alongside a taller, more premium tier known as the Ultra. If you are trying to decide which style fits your pocket, the leaked colors and specs paint a pretty clear picture.
Fresh Colors Across the Lineup
The leaked renders show off the exact color choices for both models, and there is a pretty clear split in personality between the two.
For the standard wide Galaxy Z Fold 8, you can look forward to Cream, Graphite, and Lavender. There will also be a Pistachio colorway, which looks to be an online-store exclusive direct from Samsung.
If you decide to step up to the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, the palette shifts toward a darker, more muted look. The Ultra will be available in Cream, Graphite, Green Shadow, and Violet Shadow. It looks like last year's Royal Blue did not make the cut this time around, though Samsung will likely have a few web-only exclusives on their own site to round things out.
Sizing Up the Specs
Internally, both versions pack plenty of power, but they diverge when it comes to the displays, battery capacities, and camera setups. Here is how the hardware choices stack up side by side based on what we know so far.
| Feature | Galaxy Z Fold 8 (Wide) | Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra |
|---|---|---|
| Inner Display | 7.6 inch (4:3 aspect ratio) | 8.0 inch (10:9 aspect ratio) |
| Cover Display | 5.5 inch (16:10 aspect ratio) | 6.5 inch (21:9 aspect ratio) |
| Peak Brightness | 2,600 nits | 3,600 nits |
| Processor | Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 | Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 |
| RAM | 12 GB Base | 12 GB Base |
| Storage Options | 256GB / 512GB / 1TB | 256GB / 512GB / 1TB |
| Main Camera | 50 MP | 200 MP |
| Ultrawide Camera | 50 MP | 50 MP |
| Telephoto Camera | N/A | 10 MP (3x optical zoom) |
| Selfie Camera | 10 MP (Main and Cover) | 10 MP (Main and Cover) |
| Thickness (Unfolded) | 4.5 mm | 4.2 mm |
| Thickness (Folded) | 9.7 mm | 9 mm |
| IP Rating | IP48 | IP68 |
| Battery Capacity | 4,800 mAh | 5,000 mAh |
| Charging Speeds | 45W Wired / 15W Wireless | 45W Wired / 15W Wireless |
| Weight | 201 g | 210 g |
The standard Fold 8 is going to be incredibly light at just 201 g, which is impressive for a wide foldable. Meanwhile, the Ultra goes all out on the premium stuff, packing a 200 MP main sensor, a boost to 3,600 nits of peak brightness, and an IP68 rating for better dust and water resistance.
We will see everything for sure when Samsung takes the stage in London on July 22, but choosing between a passport-wide design or ultra-premium thinness is going to be a fun matchup to watch.
