Samsung is expected to unveil its next generation of foldables at a Galaxy Unpacked event next month, but now we know what they might look like, courtesy of some leaked images published by[*Android Headlines*](https://www.androidheadlines.com/samsung-galaxy-z-fold-8-cases.html)\. Images shared by the publication include case designs for two new Galaxy Z Fold 8 models and the Galaxy Z Flip 8, each giving a good look at the phones inside the cases too\.
This could be our closest look so far at Samsung’s new wide\-style foldable, following a leak of a[purported dummy unit](https://www.theverge.com/tech/938736/its-the-samsung-fold-8-wide-dummy)in May and a fresh photo of an apparent dummy unit from leaker[Ice Universe](https://x.com/UniverseIce/status/2071168868727611506)this week\. There are some similarities between all of these leaks: They show a wide, passport\-style form factor, with a selfie camera built into the cover display, and a double\-camera setup on the rear\.

[Recent leaks](https://9to5google.com/2026/06/29/samsungs-confusing-galaxy-z-fold-8-ultra-name-is-basically-official-in-latest-leak-gallery/)suggest the wide foldable may in fact be called the Z Fold 8, with Samsung’s more familiar, narrower book\-style foldable rebranded the Z Fold 8 Ultra\. Images of what appears to be that phone, along with the Z Flip 8, were also shared by*Android Headlines*, though these look similar to the current[Flip 7](https://www.theverge.com/reviews/715325/samsung-galaxy-z-flip-7-review)and[Fold 7](https://www.theverge.com/reviews/709990/samsung-galaxy-z-fold-7-review)models\.

Samsung’s new foldables are expected to get an official launch at the company’s summer Galaxy Unpacked event, which is reportedly taking place on July 22nd\. That’s a little later than usual, but should mean that the wider Galaxy Z Fold 8 will launch before Apple releases its own[wide\-style iPhone foldable](https://www.theverge.com/tech/923839/a-foldable-iphone-dummy-on-video)competitor, currently[set to debut in September](https://www.theverge.com/tech/907856/iphone-fold-dummy-design-delay-production)\.
