Buy a Verizon Simplicity plan and get $460 off the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8
We rated the Galaxy Z Fold8 4.5 stars — and now it's hugely discounted
The latest foldable phones from Samsung were released over the summer, and we're already seeing some pretty hot deals on them. One of our favorites is over at Verizon, where you can pick up the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 for $1,439.99 (was $1,899.99). The huge $460 saving doesn't necessarily make the foldable cheap, but it does make it significantly more affordable.
To qualify for the discount, all you have to do is sign up for a Simplicity Plan at Verizon, which currently costs just $30 per month, discounted down from $55 per month. The plan includes unlimited 5G Ultra Wideband data, Mexico and Canada talk, text, and data, and a 10GB mobile hotspot.
The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 is one of the best foldable phones, winning the position of the best passport-style foldable. It boasts a pocketable, wide foldable form factor that our review describes in glowing terms: "no phone does it better than the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8. It's thin, light, and packs a superb 7.6-inch folding display."
Today's best Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 deal
Samsung's latest folding phone is far from cheap, but with this huge $460 discount, it's much more affordable than it normally is. For the money, you get a top-quality device that is equally at home as a tablet as it is as a phone. We gave it 4.5 out of 5 stars and therefore rated it very highly.
When our Managing Editor, Derrek Lee, spent two weeks with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8, he concluded that it was "the foldable phone most people should buy". No wonder he rated it 4.5 stars and praised its almost non-existent crease, spectacular performance, and all-day battery life.
With a fast Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chip and up to 16GB of RAM, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 offers fantastic performance across a wide range of uses, including work, play, and gaming. When unfolded, this internal hardware is paired with a huge 7.6-inch LTPO AMOLED display, a fact that only further enhances the overall experience.
Multitaskers will love the Galaxy Z Fold8's ability to display up to three apps side by side. That means you can access your email, calendar, and web browser all at the same time. This is a huge time-saver, and annoying app switching in its traditional form is almost eliminated.
There are also a number of built-in AI features to help deliver a smooth experience, including Now Nudge, which, according to Samsung, "recognizes what is shown on your screen and suggests relevant actions, such as adding events to your calendar or sharing photos."
"It's thin, light, and incredibly fun to use," and now only $1439.99 at Verizon with a Simplicity Plan.
