The Galaxy Z Fold 8 convinced me that an old phone feature needs a comeback, fast

The author of a recent article has expressed a desire for the return of side-mounted fingerprint scanners on Android phones, citing their convenience. This comes as most new releases have opted for under-display scanners.

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra has been reviewed, highlighting both its benefits and drawbacks. The phone features a large 8-inch foldable display and a 6.5-inch cover display, along with a trio of main cameras, including a 200MP main lens, and excellent battery life.

However, according to Tom's Guide, watching videos on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra's larger display can be problematic due to the odd shape of the screen, resulting in large areas of blank space around the video. The cover display offers a more traditional viewing experience, but the issue persists on the larger display.
