Samsung has offered an early look at the Galaxy Z Fold 8 — though only barely. In a new teaser tied to Spider-Man: Brand New Day, the company shows Spidey pulling a foldable phone off a 3D printer and opening it like a book, with the device mostly hidden behind heavy lens flares.
According to The Verge, the phone is likely the redesigned Galaxy Z Fold 8, which has been rumored to adopt a wider, passport-like shape. Samsung is expected to unveil the device, along with the rest of its new hardware lineup, at a Galaxy Unpacked event on July 22nd.
As 9to5Google noted, the teaser also appears to show several other upcoming Samsung devices more clearly:

Those products are visible without the same cinematic glare, but the designs do not appear dramatically different from Samsung’s current lineup. The flip phone in the teaser, for example, looks identical to the current Z Flip 7.
The timing is notable because Apple is also rumored to be preparing a foldable iPhone with a similar wider design, and that device could launch later this year.
