Samsung is unveiling Galaxy Z Fold 8, Fold 8 Ultra, Z Flip 8 and Watch 9 devices, with India pre-reservations open. Expected Indian prices range from Rs 1.05 lakh for Flip 8 to Rs 1.85 lakh for Fold 8 Ultra.

Why this matters

The move follows Samsung's Back to School Galaxy offers and its Bespoke AI washer-dryer push for urban Indian homes, extending localized retail activity. It also echoes a prior India pre-reservation signal ahead of Galaxy Z Fold 8.
