While the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 is rumored to be slightly thicker than its predecessor, the Galaxy Z Fold7, a new rumor claims that the Fold8’s punch hole in the display for the selfie camera will be smaller.
The word comes from reliable tipster Ice Universe, who said that while the Fold7’s front camera cutout measures 3.7mm in diameter, the Fold8’s cutout measures only 2.5mm. The tipster further said that “Samsung appears to have adopted a new technology that significantly reduces the size of the front camera hole.”

The Galaxy Z Fold7 had a 10MP selfie camera in the cutout on the cover display, and it remains to be seen whether the selfie camera will be upgraded on the Fold8, which is rumored to feature a higher-resolution ultrawide camera (50MP vs. 12MP).
The Fold8 is also rumored to measure 158.4 x 143.2 x 4.5 mm when unfolded and 158.4 x 72.8 x 9 mm when folded. The Fold7, on the other hand, measured 158.4 x 143.2 x 4.2 mm when unfolded and 158.4 x 72.8 x 8.9 mm when folded.
