Report: iPhone Ultra form factor comes into focus via Galaxy Z Fold 8 comparisons

According to 9to5Mac, Apple is expected to launch a foldable iPhone Ultra this month with the same screen sizes as Samsung’s Galaxy Z Fold 8, and early comparisons suggest an iPad mini-like display in a pocket-sized device.

Because the two phones are expected to be dimensionally similar, early hands-on comparisons of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 are being treated as a preview of how the iPhone Ultra will look and feel in the real world. 9to5Mac noted that whether or not Samsung introduced the Galaxy Z Fold 8 to preempt Apple, the device gives a useful sense of what the iPhone Ultra might be like to hold and use.

Ray Wong shared multiple comparisons of the Galaxy Z Fold 8 with the previous-generation iPad mini, highlighting that users are getting an iPad mini-like display in their pocket, though without the chunkier bezels. Enthusiast Shishir posted photos pairing the iPhone 13 mini with the Galaxy Z Fold 8, showing the 13 mini is slightly taller but similarly small. According to the report, this could appeal to those who miss the iPhone mini, as the iPhone Ultra may offer a close equivalent when folded.

9to5Mac also pointed to dummy model images as additional references for comparing sizes. The article’s author wrote that seeing the Galaxy Z Fold 8 made him more excited for the iPhone Ultra, and that the two should be nearly identical in physical form, although the iPhone Ultra is expected to have curved corners.
