If Samsung really surpasses Huawei in folding screen quality but loses in innovation speed, will users still consider Samsung the leader in folding smartphones or has the throne officially changed hands?
Huawei was the first company to introduce the trend of wide-screen folding phones with Pura X Max, opening up a completely new development direction for the folding smartphone market. Just about three months later, Samsung is said to be ready to join the race with the widescreen Galaxy Z Fold 8 and is expected to announce it at the Galaxy Unpacked event in July.
This move shows that the competition between Samsung and Huawei is entering a new phase, no longer focusing only on thinness or performance but shifting to a display experience with a wider screen ratio, almost like a mini tablet when opened.
Galaxy Z Fold 8 will have two versions
According to leaked sources, Samsung will change the naming of its folding product line.
Feature Version
Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide screen version
Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra Traditional high screen version
Galaxy Z Fold Tri-Fold Tri-fold phone with three screens
This means Samsung will expand its foldable phone portfolio instead of just maintaining one design like previous generations.
Expected specifications
Category Galaxy Z Fold 8
7.6 inch AMOLED folding screen
Screen h5.4 inch exterior
Thickness Approx 4.5 mm
New fifth generation Qualcomm Snapdragon processor
Main camera 50 MP
50 MP ultra wide-angle camera
5,000 mAh battery
It is worth noting that Samsung is said to have significantly improved the screen fold. If this information is accurate, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 will provide a more seamless experience than the Huawei Pura X Max when watching videos, reading documents or working.

7.6 inch screen Slightly larger
Wrinkles Can almost disappear Significantly improved
5,000 mAh battery Not outstanding
High-end new generation Snapdragon Kirin chip
It can be seen that Huawei is the pioneer in opening up new segments, while Samsung focuses on perfecting the user experience with display quality, thinness and weight.
Cameras can cause regret
One of the points that surprised many users is that the wide-screen Galaxy Z Fold 8 is said to only use a 50 MP main camera and a 50 MP super wide-angle camera.
Meanwhile, the Galaxy S25 Edge already has a 200 MP main sensor. This shows that Samsung still prioritizes ultra-thin design over equipping the most powerful camera system.
Wide screens will become the new trend
Traditional folding phones often have quite narrow external screens, making it not really comfortable to use with one hand.
Widescreen design brings more benefits.
* Display space is larger when using dexternal monitor.
* Typing text is more convenient.
* Watch movies near standard screen ratio.
* Read documents and split applications more efficiently.
* Feels almost like a tablet when fully opened.
This is also the reason why Huawei chose this direction first and Samsung quickly joined the race.
Estimated selling price
Samsung has not yet announced the official price.
Following the trend of previous generations, Galaxy Z Fold 8 will likely belong to the high-end segment with an expected price from about 48,000,000 VND to 60,000,000 VND depending on the memory version and market.
Reviews
If the leaked information comes true, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 will not be the first folding phone with a wide screen, because Huawei has gone ahead with the Pura X Max.
However, Samsung has the opportunity to make a difference thanks to a screen with fewer folds, an ultra-thin body of about 4.5 mm, a 5,000 mAh battery and a very complete Galaxy ecosystem.
Next July promises to be the time when the competition between Samsung and Huawei becomes more attractive than ever, especially in the high-end folding smartphone segment that is growing rapidly globally.
