Galaxy Z Fold8 Review: What Samsung's New Foldable Tells Us About the iPhone Ultra
MacRumors videographer Dan Barbera has been testing Samsung's new foldable, and the wider 4:3 display bodes well for the iPhone Ultra. It's 5.5 inches when closed and 7.6 inches when open, and those are just about the exact dimensions we've seen rumored for the iPhone Ultra. It's not as tall or narrow as Samsung's other foldable smartphones, and it feels a lot more like using an iPad mini.
