I've taken over 650 photos on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Fold 8 Ultra, and I'd pick the 'worse' camera phone to use long-term — here's why
I've been testing both of Samsung's new expensive folding phones, and I'm surprised to say that the lesser has become my go-to camera phone.
In the past two weeks, I have taken hundreds of photographs using both the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Z Fold 8 Ultra. Despite the Ultra being the better camera phone, I have found myself using the standard Z Fold 8 more often due to its convenience. The Ultra, being a long and thin phone, can be difficult to remove from a pocket, while the smaller Z Fold 8 folds into a more manageable size.
Additionally, the Z Fold 8's 4:3 aspect ratio on its main screen is more suitable for photo editing, as it offers less black space compared to the Ultra's square display.
