This is where the Fold8’s positioning for its price gets uncomfortable. You get a 50MP main sensor with OIS and a 50MP ultrawide with a 120-degree field of view, plus 10MP selfie cameras on both the cover screen and inside the inner display.

The device is tipped to arrive in early September with a larger display, an Exynos 2500 chip, a 50-megapixel main camera and faster 45W charging.The biggest talking point, however, could be price. A leaked European price of 799 euros would place the Galaxy S26 FE uncomfortably close to discounted full-fat Galaxy S26 models. That matters for buyers in India too, where Samsung’s FE phones usually…
