Leaks Point to Galaxy Z Flip 8 Keeping Flip 7 Cameras as Fold 8 Gains Upgrades

Reports suggest Samsung is prioritizing portability or pricing over a camera overhaul on its clamshell model.

Overview

  • A GalaxyClub leak indicates the Galaxy Z Flip 8 will feature a 50MP main camera, a 12MP ultrawide, and a 10MP selfie camera, matching the Flip 7 setup.
  • The Flip 8 is again tipped to omit a telephoto lens, signaling a continued dual‑rear‑camera approach for the clamshell line.
  • Separate reports say the Galaxy Z Fold 8 is expected to upgrade its secondary lenses with a 50MP ultrawide sensor, creating a clearer split in capabilities.
  • Rumors point to a significant weight drop for the Flip 8 to around 150g, hinting at design trade‑offs that may take precedence over camera hardware.
  • Coverage points to a July Unpacked launch for three foldables—Flip 8, Fold 8, and a wider Fold 8 variant—with the Flip 8 base model rumored near $1,100.
