Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Drops Price to $1,649.99 on Amazon
Confirmed
In Short: Amazon is offering a $250 discount on the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8, marking the lowest price since its launch.
Samsung's Galaxy Z Fold 8 is now available at a discounted price of $1,649.99 on Amazon, down from its original retail price of $1,899.99. This $250 discount, which represents a 13% reduction off the retail price, is the first cash discount seen on this recently released foldable device. The deal is part of Amazon's massive 2026 Labor Day sale, offering a wide range of deals on various tech products.
According to 9to5Toys, the discount is also available at Best Buy and is expected to be live on the official Samsung site soon. The Galaxy Z Fold 8, which almost entirely sold out shortly after the pre-order phase, now has nearly all colors and storage configurations back in stock. The deal is not limited to the 256GB model; the 512GB configurations are also available at $1,849.99, a $250 discount from their original price.
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 features a 7.6-inch main display with a 4:3 aspect ratio, ideal for reading and split-screen work. It also includes a wider outer screen and a more balanced design, making it more natural to use when closed. Under the hood, the device is powered by the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 for Galaxy, with AI features focused on multitasking, camera assistance, and on-device productivity. The battery capacity is 5,000mAh, with a silicon-based design that includes safety measures for the newer battery chemistry.
Droid-Life reports that the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, which is part of the same sale, would start at $1,799.99 with 256GB storage, after a $300 discount. This deal is particularly attractive for those looking to upgrade to the latest Samsung flagship, as both Samsung and Google have recently made their final 2026 phones official.
