EDITORIAL: After years of following Apple's lead with less innovation and more of trying to lock it's customers into the Samsung ecosystem, world's biggest phone maker is waking up again. The massive change doesn't stop with adoption of Silicone Carbon anode battery tech, it expands to new phones like this wide-fold model and the expected S27 Pro phone sometime early next year. Innovation effort is back and that's exactly what we should celebrate. The strange naming solution shouldn't confuse you - Z Fold 8 is not an upgrade of the Z Fold 7 - this is a brand new phone type in format invented by Huawei (Pura X Max, May 2026) and expected to also be adopted by Apple's first foldable phone in Sep 2026. As a first time effort, the Z Fold 8 shines with excellent build and screens and a mature software experience that includes DeX as well. But there is more good news: endurance is easily a full day and can go to proper 36hrs when the phone is used unfolded.

PROs
excellent build, fast SD 8 Elite Gen 5 with UFS 4.0 performance, >30hrs endurance from a 4800mAh Si-C battery with sub-70min slow 45W (20W wireless) charging, 2 >1400nits bright >400ppi 120Hz LTPO AMOLED screens (inner one is HDR10+ too), water immersion IP48 protection, very good photos from a 50MP 23mm OIS PDAF main + 50MP 13mm PDAF ultrawide setup, 2 non-AF selfies with good performance (but use the main camera for excellent selfies), 7 years of OneUI updates loaded with AI and other features, DeX computer replacement functionality, fast USB-C 3.2 port
CONs
average video recording, no memory expansion, stereo speakers lack power, no stylus support, expensive

FOLDFLY* TOP Selfie

EDITORIAL: Motorola's top foldable phone is the flip phone to beat: great package includes everything you need except for a limited battery life (which most foldables struggle with). This one has great build, submersible IP protection, excellent screens and a triple 50MP camera system that misses a tele lens but delivers great pics and very good videos.

PROs
great proportions and flagship build, great SD 8 Elite with UFS 4.0 performance, sub-60min 68W (30W wireless) charging, two excellent 165Hz 1500nits >400ppi LTPO AMOLED screens with Dolby Vision, (immersible) IP48 protection, excellent photos and selfies from 50MP 24mm OIS main + 50MP 12mm ultrawide (both with PDAF) setup, feature and AI tricks rich stock-Android-like HelloUI, desktop replacement functionality
CONs
heavy throttling under load, sub-24hr endurance from a smallish 4700mAh lithium battery, no expandable memory, only 3 years of OS updates, slow USB-C 2.0 port
