Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Fold 8 Ultra specs leak ahead of launch, with Fold 8 dropping the telephoto camera

German publication WinFuture has shared what it says are the full specifications of Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra just a week ahead of the company's launch event.

According to the report, both foldables will feature Dynamic AMOLED 2X displays built on a titanium backplate, which is expected to improve durability while making the display crease less noticeable. Powering both devices will be Qualcomm's Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy, clocked at up to 4.47 GHz.

The biggest difference between the two models comes down to the camera system. The standard Galaxy Z Fold 8reportedly drops the telephoto camera altogether, while the Fold 8 Ultra retains a triple-camera setup and upgrades its ultrawide sensor from 12 MP (f/2.4) to 50 MP (f/1.9).
