You Can Still Save 19% on the Galaxy Z Fold Ultra After October Prime Day

Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold series is excellent, and its devices are perhaps the best foldable smartphones you can buy. (Though we'll see if the iPhone Duo stacks up later this month.) The very best of these devices, the Galaxy Z Fold Ultra, comes with everything Samsung has to offer in a folding smartphone, which doesn't come cheap. Samsung lists this device at $2,099.99, which could buy you two or three laptops, let alone one foldable. But during the even after October Prime Day, you can save 19% on this device and take advantage of big discounts on Samsung's other foldables.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra $1,684.99 at Amazon $2,099.99 Save $415.00 Get Deal hero-image.fill.size_autoxauto.v1784727641.jpg hero-image.fill.size_autoxauto.v1784727641.jpg Get Deal $1,684.99 at Amazon $2,099.99 Save $415.00

When closed, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra has a 6.5-inch 1080p display, perfectly usable as a typical smartphone experience. But once opened, you get an eight-inch 120Hz display with a much higher resolution of 2256 by 2504, effectively turning the Z Fold 8 Ultra into a small tablet. It comes with the same Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip as the Galaxy S26 line, which means performance is on par with Samsung's flagship smartphone lineup. You also get some of the benefits of the S26 Ultra's cameras: The Z Fold 8 Ultra has a 200MP wide lens, a 10MP telephoto lens, and a 50MP ultrawide lens. And since this is a foldable phone, you also get two selfie cameras: One 10MP ultrawide on the inside, and one 10MP side on the outer display.

Amazon's deal on the Z Fold 8 Ultra is great, but it's still expensive. You save $415, but you still need to put down $1,684.99. Alternatively, you could take advantage of Amazon's deal on the Galaxy Z Fold 8. This device is 18% off, down to $1,549.99 from $1,899.99. This is Samsung's "passport-shaped" foldable, with a smaller 5.5-inch outer display and a 7.6-inch 120Hz inner display. It, too, runs the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, though you miss out a bit on cameras: The Galaxy Z Fold 8 doesn't have a 200MP shooter, but has a 50MP wide and a 50MP ultrawide. It also comes with 10MP selfie cameras on the inner and outer displays.

If you're looking for the most affordable foldable Galaxy phone, you could consider the Galaxy Z Flip 8. As the name implies, the phone flips, not folds, meaning it has a much smaller footprint than Samsung's other devices. With it, you get a 4.1-inch cover display, which opens up to a 6.9-inch 120Hz 1080p inner display. It also runs the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip, but it has the least powerful camera options yet: a 50MP wide lens and a 12MP ultrawide. There's only one 10MP selfie camera on this device. However, the Flip 8 is also Samsung's most affordable. Right now, Amazon has it 19% off, down to $974.99 from $1,199.99.
