Samsung’s latest (and possibly last) clamshell foldable is available for purchase, and it’s received mixed early reviews. I’ll admit I’ve had a contentious relationship with the Z Flip series over the years, especially once Motorola revamped its Razr lineup in 2023. The competition hasn’t been close since, as Motorola consistently provided the better user experience and value.
But Samsung hasn’t given up, and the Galaxy Z Flip 8 is undoubtedly its best flip-phone yet. It may not be a drastic departure from the outgoing Z Flip 7, but Samsung’s made some notable improvements. But with the Razr Ultra (2026) being excellent again this year, how well does it stack up?
