New entries on China’s 3C certification platform have revealed two book-style models, SM-F9760 (likely the Galaxy Z Fold 8) and SM-F9710 (rumored as the Galaxy Z Wide Fold). Both are listed with 45W wired charging support (15V/3A). That might not sound like a big deal at first, but Samsung has kept its Fold lineup at 25W since 2020, so this is actually a meaningful change.
It also lines up with earlier reports suggesting internal design adjustments, likely to handle heat and higher power delivery a bit better. Foldables already have tight internal layouts, so upgrades like this usually mean something has shifted inside.
There’s also talk of a battery upgrade. The Fold 8 could finally move past the familiar 4,400mAh limit, with some leaks pointing to 5,000mAh. If that happens, combined with faster charging, it should make day-to-day use a bit more forgiving.
The Galaxy Z Flip 8 (SM-F7760), though, seems to be sticking to the same formula. Its certification still shows 25W charging, and battery capacity is expected to remain largely unchanged. Not surprising, but it does make the Flip feel a bit static next to the Fold updates.
Then there’s the Galaxy Z Wide Fold, which might end up being the more interesting addition. Early details suggest a wider outer display with an 18:9 aspect ratio, unfolding into a more square inner screen. There’s also some talk of S Pen support returning here, which would be notable after being dropped in the thinner Fold 7.
Nothing here is officially confirmed yet, and 3C listings only tell part of the story. Still, this round of upgrades feels a bit more practical than flashy, the kind you notice after using the phone for a few days, not just on launch day.
