Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Gets $350 Prime Day Price Drop

Android Authority reported the deal on Oct. 6, 2026. It described the Fold 8 as Samsung’s more mainstream option in its 2026 foldable lineup, positioned below the new Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra. Samsung designed the device with a wider, shorter shape that makes the outer screen easier to type on, while the large inner display is better suited to reading, watching videos, and running multiple apps at once, the publication said.

The Fold 8 also stands out for its multitasking features and tablet-like inner screen, which Android Authority said feels more practical than earlier narrow Fold models. Samsung positions the device as a Galaxy AI showcase, with on-device tools for writing, translation, productivity, and photo and video features built into the foldable experience. Battery life is said to be improved over earlier generations, with a larger battery and faster charging. Amazon shoppers rate the device at 4.6 out of 5, according to the report.

Android Authority said the $1,749.99 price makes now a good time to buy Samsung’s new book-style foldable. The discount is 17% relative to the recommended retail price. The report did not include an end date for the Prime Day sale or additional retailer details.
