Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 8 pre-orders — top deals and offers in Australia

(Image credit: Tom's Guide / John Velasco) Samsung has officially introduced the Galaxy Z Flip 8, and Australian pre‑orders are now open. The new model keeps the familiar 4.1‑inch cover screen and 6.9‑inch folding display, but both panels benefit from Samsung’s latest durability upgrades. The Galaxy Z Flip 8’s crease is noticeably reduced thanks to its updated hinge and the titanium‑alloy reinforcement beneath the display — the same structural upgrade introduced on the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series.The biggest practical change is under the hood: the Galaxy Z Flip 8 jumps to a 4300mAh battery, a substantial lift from last year’s 3700mAh pack that gives the clamshell far more staying power. Charging remains at 25W wired and 15W wireless, but the larger battery alone makes a meaningful difference for day‑to‑day use.The Galaxy Z Flip 8 hits Australian shelves on August 14, 2026, with prices starting at AU$1,949 and pre‑orders wrapping up at 11:59pm AEST on August 13.
