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.
6Keep the phone partially open with the Always-On Display
Another option is to leave the Fold 8 partially open on a desk, with the Always-On Display showing the time and other glanceable information.
This arrangement gives the device a small desk-clock-like role without requiring a separate accessory. You can check the time at a glance and potentially see other supported information without fully opening the phone or picking it up.
It is a simple use case, but one that takes advantage of the foldable design in a way that a conventional smartphone cannot replicate as naturally.
