Samsung Leaks Pricing for Galaxy Z Fold 8 Series: Wide Model Holds Steady, Ultra Model Rises

WinFuture’s leak, reported by 9to5Google, lists German launch prices for the Galaxy Z Fold 8 lineup. The new wide-form factor starts at €1,999 for 256 GB, €2,199 for 512 GB, and €2,599 for 1 TB. The Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra is priced at €2,199 for 256 GB (+€100), €2,399 for 512 GB (+€180), and €2,799 for 1 TB (+€280). The Ultra variant adds a third camera and a larger battery compared with the wide model.

Samsung’s 2026 release introduces the wide-form factor as a fresh addition to the Fold series, while the Ultra model largely retains the Fold 7’s hardware with only minor updates. The wide model’s price mirrors that of its predecessor despite being a new configuration, whereas the Ultra model sees a notable price hike despite limited redesign.

The reporting describes the pricing split as “ironic” and “a hard pill to swallow,” highlighting the contrast between a brand-new wide device that keeps last year’s price and an Ultra version that becomes more expensive without substantial changes. The analysis questions Samsung’s pricing rationale, asking “What are we doing?” and noting the absence of price increases on other product lines.

The price information originates from a WinFuture leak and has not been corroborated by Samsung. The sources do not explain the reasons for the Ultra’s price increase, nor do they provide comparative data for markets outside Germany.
