Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra review: The ultra foldable with an ultra price

Samsung has largely defined the foldable phone category, but it's no longer alone in releasing flexible devices.

Google, Motorola, and a raft of Chinese OEMs have their own take on this form factor.

Is the new Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra really "ultra" enough to remain on top? This phone doesn't have the wide frame of the new Z Fold 8 , instead matching the approximate size and shape of the company’s last few tablet-style foldables.

The Z Fold 8 Ultra is not a big leap, but it continues Samsung's pattern of iterative foldable improvements.

At this point, there's very little left to improve.

The compromises of going with a foldable over a regular flat phone have largely been erased with the Z Fold 8 Ultra.

Well, except for the price.

Flatter and a little better Foldables used to be real pocket-busters, almost like carrying two phones glued together.

Samsung has successively shaved a few millimeters off every year, taking a leap last year with the Z Fold 7.

The Z Fold 8 Ultra is even a bit slimmer than that phone, but the difference is basically imperceptible.

It still has the same buttons in the same places, including a fingerprint sensor in the power button.
