Samsung’s wider foldable design opens up new ways to use the Galaxy Z Fold 8 beyond simply unfolding it into a larger screen. From watching videos at a comfortable angle to running three apps simultaneously, the device offers several practical ways to take advantage of its unconventional form factor. Here are seven ways I enjoyed using it.

The wider inner display also works well when you unfold the phone horizontally and run two or three apps side by side. In my setup, I could keep X and Instagram open alongside YouTube, allowing me to browse social media feeds while watching a video.

Whether you stack the three vertically or horizontally, you can adjust their sizes for a better viewing experience.

There are several other possibilities. You could follow live updates on social media while watching a sports match, monitor messages while attending an online meeting, or keep a browser and messaging app open alongside a video tutorial.

The ability to see multiple applications simultaneously makes the Fold 8 useful for people who regularly juggle different tasks.
