The foldable phone joins Galaxy Watch9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra2 in a lifestyle-focused push, alongside time-limited Philippine offers.
Samsung is highlighting the Galaxy Z Flip8’s foldable design as a way to capture photos and videos without carrying a separate tripod, alongside activity-focused features on the Galaxy Watch9 and Galaxy Watch Ultra2.
The company’s release focuses on everyday situations such as solo travel, outfit videos, group photos and workout recordings.
By partially folding the phone and placing it on a stable surface, users can frame hands-free shots using FlexCam.
Using the foldable design for filming
Samsung says the FlexWindow allows users to preview and capture shots without unfolding the device, while Super Steady helps stabilize video recorded on the move.
The practical appeal is having a phone that can support itself for certain shots, provided a suitable surface and angle are available.
The release also presents the Watch9 as an everyday health and fitness companion, while describing the Watch Ultra2 as designed for more demanding activities.
It does not provide detailed sensor specifications, battery-life figures or independent performance results.
Philippine offers carry different deadlines
According to Samsung’s announcement, eligible device trade-ins can provide up to 50% trade-in savings on the Galaxy Z Flip8 through November 8, 2026.
A separate payday campaign runs from October 26 to 31, 2026. The release advertises 10% off the Flip8, an additional 10% installment offer on terms of up to 24 months, and freebies.
It also promotes 30% off the Galaxy Watch Ultra2 using GALAXYAF30. Samsung’s official newsroom carries these campaign claims and dates.
These offers should be assessed individually. Two successive 10% discounts do not necessarily equal a 20% reduction, and the final amount depends on the applicable mechanics.
Confirm model eligibility before checkout
Samsung’s separate public Samsung Week page lists the Galaxy Watch Ultra among products eligible for GALAXYAF30, while the release names Watch Ultra2. Shoppers should confirm the exact eligible model and checkout discount before purchase.
The release cites DTI Fair Trade Permit Nos. FTEB-268621, 266841, 269369, 267976 and 266269, Series of 2026.
Consumers can review Samsung Philippines for participating devices, trade-in valuations, installment conditions and available freebies.
