Samsung Reportedly Shifts Focus, Plans to Produce More Galaxy Z Fold 8 Than Flip 8 in 2026 - BigGo News

Samsung continues to expand its presence in the foldable smartphone market with strong momentum. The company introduced the Galaxy Z Fold 7 in India in July 2025 alongside the Galaxy Z Flip 7 and Galaxy Z Flip 7 FE. These devices helped Samsung maintain its leadership in the premium foldable segment. Shortly after their release, rumors about the next generation—namely the Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Galaxy Z Flip 8—began to emerge, giving early hints about what consumers can expect from the upcoming models.

New reports now suggest that Samsung is adjusting its production strategy in favor of the book-style foldable. According to South Korean publication ETHome, the company is planning to manufacture around 3.5 million units of the Galaxy Z Fold 8, while production of the Galaxy Z Flip 8 is expected to be limited to approximately 3 million units. This indicates that Samsung is placing greater confidence in the demand for its larger foldable device rather than the more compact clamshell model.

The decision reportedly comes after strong sales performance from the Galaxy Z Fold 7 last year. Industry sources claim that the Fold model outperformed the Galaxy Z Flip 7 in several key markets, prompting Samsung to prioritize its successor. By increasing production of the Galaxy Z Fold 8, the company appears to be preparing for higher global demand and ensuring sufficient stock ahead of its official launch.

Although these plans have not yet been officially confirmed by Samsung, expectations are high that both new foldables will arrive in the second half of this year. If the reports prove accurate, the Galaxy Z Fold 8 could become Samsung’s main focus in the foldable category for 2026. More concrete details regarding specifications, pricing, and availability are likely to surface as the launch period approaches.

Samsung to Start HBM4 Production for Nvidia Supply

Samsung Electronics plans to begin production of its next-generation high-bandwidth memory chips, known as HBM4, next month and supply them to Nvidia, a person familiar with the matter told Reuters.

The move marks a key step in Samsung’s efforts to close the gap with local rival SK Hynix, which has emerged as the primary supplier of advanced memory used in Nvidia’s AI accelerators. Earlier supply delays had weighed on Samsung’s earnings and share price last year.

Samsung shares rose 2.2% in morning trade, while SK Hynix shares fell 2.9%. The source declined to disclose shipment volumes. Samsung declined to comment, and Nvidia was not immediately available for comment.

South Korean newspaper Korea Economic Daily reported that Samsung recently passed HBM4 qualification tests for Nvidia and AMD, and is set to begin shipments to Nvidia next month, citing industry sources.

SK Hynix said in October it had completed supply talks with major customers for next year and plans to deploy silicon wafers at its new M15X fab in Cheongju starting next month. It has not confirmed whether HBM4 will be part of the initial output.

Both Samsung and SK Hynix are due to report fourth-quarter earnings later this week, when further details on HBM4 orders are expected. Nvidia CEO Jensen Huang has said the company’s next-generation Vera Rubin AI platform is already in full production and will be paired with HBM4 chips later this year.
