MANILA, Philippines (July 2026) — Carrying a massive screen that fits right in your pocket just got a lot more premium, but it comes with a hefty price tag to match. The latest generation of mobile tech is shifting toward smarter, highly adaptive foldables designed to elevate how people handle work and daily tasks on the move.
Meet the new giant foldable
Leading the pack is the Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra, bringing a large workspace tailored for heavy productivity and content creation. For Pinoy power users who want a fresh foldable experience without the extreme footprint, the standard Galaxy Z Fold8 offers a redesigned form factor that makes focusing on favorite apps and videos much easier.
If pocketability is the main priority, the Galaxy Z Flip8 arrives as the sleekest iteration yet. It focuses on quick, expressive interactions so users can reply to messages and capture content without even opening the main screen.
Next-gen smartwatches built to last
Alongside the phones, two new wearables aim to make health tracking effortless. The Galaxy Watch Ultra2 and Galaxy Watch9 feature the largest batteries and brightest displays seen on the lineup so far. Powered by the Snapdragon Wear Elite Platform, these smartwatches offer 24/7 wearability and detailed health insights from the moment they are put on.
