00:00Here it is, Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra. So this is actually the follow-up to the Galaxy Z
00:07Fold 7,
00:08but they've added the Ultra because there's that other one, the straight-up Galaxy Z Fold 8.
00:14But this, this is an incremental change. It's a little bit thinner, so instead of 4.2mm thick, it's 4
00:23.1.
00:24So you can almost see already, it's thin here, but the Flex technology does more than just make it thinner.
00:29Peel this cover off here. What it does, Flex titanium. Now we've got two layers.
00:35We have a rigid layer of titanium, and then we have a flexible, almost paper-like one.
00:39Both super strong, one super flexible, but even like this. One, basically flat now. Two, almost no crease.
00:49Cameras look basically the same, but there is a bit of an upgrade. So we now have a 50-megapixel
00:53ultra-wide.
00:54We have the 50-megapixel wide, 200-megapixel wide, and we have the 10-megapixel 3x optical zoom.
01:02And of course, you have the other cameras on the cover and on the inside.
01:06So Samsung redesigned the hinge. They redesigned some of the magnets, and they also redesigned the lip right in here.
01:13This is so much easier to open than the last Galaxy Z Fold 7.
01:17So, nice little feature that I think people are going to appreciate, and you just see it right in there.
01:24You know, other than that, it hasn't really changed. No, they did not bring back the S Pen.
01:28So it is a little bit more expensive this year in the U.S., about $100 more, $2,099.99
01:34in the U.K., $1,899.
01:37Inside of it is Zap Dragon 8 Gen 5 Elite 4 Galaxy.
01:43And when I say that, that just means they've tweaked it a little bit so it's optimized a little bit
01:47faster for these guys.
01:49Inside, you can start with 256 gigabytes of storage. It's got 12 gigabytes of RAM, so lots of power in
01:57there for all of the AI operations.
01:59It's got some cool new AI features. There's the dual capture, where you're capturing with the front and back camera
02:05at once.
02:06And of course, you've got some agentic AI. Gemini is built into this. Bixby still exists. Samsung Galaxy AI is
02:13in there.
02:14But, you know, we have a lot of work to do. We have not really spent any time trying this
02:18out.
02:19But, if past this prologue, if the Galaxy Z Fold 7, which was a great device, is any indication, this
02:27is going to be a good one too.
02:28I can't wait to try it out.
