Is the Galaxy Z Fold8 worth it over a regular flagship phone?

If you regularly read, watch video or run two apps at once, the inner screen justifies the extra bulk and cost. If you mostly text and take photos, a slab flagship is lighter and tougher.

How does it compare with the previous Fold?

Each Fold generation refines the hinge, weight and inner screen rather than changing the formula. Upgrading mainly makes sense if you want the lighter body and latest software.

Can I use an S Pen with it?

Samsung's Fold line supports its S Pen stylus on the inner screen, but the pen is sold separately and not every S Pen model is compatible. Check the specific pen before buying.

How much storage does the base model have?

The base model has 256 GB, with no microSD slot, so choose a higher capacity if you store a lot of video or games.

The box contains the phone, a charging cable and a starter guide. There is no charger or case included.

Is the inner screen fragile?

It is softer than glass and sensitive to pressure and grit. Keep it away from sharp objects and closing debris, and treat the hinge as the part most likely to need service.
