New Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide Leak Reconfirms Battery and Camera Specs

Alongside the Galaxy Z Fold 8, Samsung may launch a Fold 8 Wide this year. The new model caters to a different need. It’s more like a foldable tablet that also doubles up as a smartphone. Leaks have already revealed plenty about the device, and a new report reconfirms some of its specs, including the battery and cameras.

Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide specs revealed in new leak

The upcoming Samsung foldable allegedly gets a 7.6-inch main display. While not quite a tablet-sized screen, it does boast an aspect ratio closer to 4:3, offering a tablet-like experience. There’s also a 5.4-inch display on the outside, with a 4.7:3 aspect ratio. Again, you get a wider screen than regular smartphones, so Samsung is trying something different here.

The new leak adds that the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide could pack a 4,800mAh battery with support for 45W fast charging, while maintaining a weight of roughly 200 grams. Samsung is finally doing something about the poor battery life of its foldables. The Fold 8 is also expected to jump from a 4,400mAh unit to a 5,000mAh cell this year.

Additionally, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide is said to feature dual 50MP rear cameras, including a primary and ultrawide sensor. Earlier leaks have suggested the same, so this looks confirmed. Cameras are certainly not its strength, it seems. Instead, Samsung is focusing on productivity here, something it tends to do with tablets too.

These two foldables will launch alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 8 later this year. While Samsung won’t officially announce the launch date anytime soon, leaks point to a July 22 unveiling of the upcoming Galaxy Z trio. For a change, the launch event could take place in London (Samsung typically hosts Unpacked events in the US or Korea). Stay tuned for more updates on the new foldables.
