- Galaxy Z Fold 8 preorders have apparently exceeded Samsung’s expectations, according to one leaker.
- Another tipster claims that Z Fold 8 preorders have exceeded Z Fold 8 Ultra preorders in Korea and other markets.
Samsung launched three new foldable phones last week, and the Galaxy Z Fold 8 arguably stole the show. This device differs from the Z Fold 8 Ultra by offering a compact design, featuring a 10:16 cover screen and a 4:3 folding display. Now, it looks like the device is a tentative hit with early adopters.
Korean tipster Lanzuk (@yeux1122) has claimed that Galaxy Z Fold 8 preorders have exceeded Samsung’s expectations. They added that production volume had initially increased by 40% compared to the Z Fold 8 Ultra, but that Samsung was still facing stock issues. Furthermore, it sounds like offline sales channels might only have stock by early to mid September, while carriers might be backed up until mid-August. The leaker didn’t mention specific markets, but we’re guessing this report applies to Korea.
