Galaxy Z Fold 8 series camera details leak, but they don’t sound very ‘Ultra’

Samsung’s upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 8 series is bringing some new camera setups and some upgrades, but nothing fitting of the “Ultra” branding.

Korean publication SisaJournal reports that Samsung is in full mass production of its next generation of foldables, and that camera details have been finalized, breaking down as follows:

Galaxy Z Fold 8

  • 50MP main camera
  • 50MP ultrawide
  • 10MP selfie (x2)

Galaxy Z Fold 8 ‘Ultra’

  • 200MP main camera
  • New: 50MP ultrawide
  • 10MP telephoto
  • 10MP selfie (x2)

Galaxy Z Flip 8

  • 50MP main camera
  • 12MP ultrawide

There’s really only a single upgrade here, with a new 50MP sensor behind the ultrawide camera on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra. Other than that, it’s business as usual. And, compared to the Galaxy S26 Ultra, it’s hard not to notice that the foldable counterpart is quite a ways behind in the camera department. Physical restrictions obviously play a key role, but it’s still hard to accept this branding, even though it’s clearly what Samsung has settled on.

The report adds that the Ultra’s 200MP camera is using Samsung’s ISOCELL HP2 sensor, while other sensors will be supplied by Namuga, Powerlogics, MCnex, and Camsys on the Z Fold devices. The Flip 8, meanwhile, gets camera sensors from Samsung Electro-Mechanics, Powerlogics, and China’s Sunny Optical, as well as a newcomer in an affiliate of Coasia. Samsung previously worked with this brand on its under-display camera sensors.
