Explore the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold Ultra, Z Fold 8, and Z Flip in this deep-dive discussion with Steven Scott, Shaun Preece, and guest Marc Aflalo. Learn about real-world performance, folding form factors, and how these devices are reshaping mobile productivity and accessibility. In this episode of Double Tap Mainstream, Steven, Shaun, and Marc Aflalo break down Samsung's latest folding smartphones: the Galaxy Z Fold Ultra, Z Fold 8, and Z Flip. Marc shares hands-on impressions of the slimmer Z Fold Ultra, highlighting its near bezel-less front screen, impressive cameras, and tablet-like unfolded display. The conversation covers key differences in form factor and usability, from the pocketable clamshell of the Z Flip to the productivity-friendly book-style Z Fold 8. The hosts explore battery life, display durability, and how Samsung has resolved early hinge and crease issues. They also discuss pricing, the potential impact on tablet sales, and whether folds are practical for blind and low-vision users. From nostalgic clamshell memories to future-facing speculation about Apple's foldable plans and voice-first computing, this episode provides a comprehensive look at the evolution of foldable smartphones. ----Follow on:YouTube: https://www.doubletaponair.com/youtubeX (formerly Twitter): https://www.doubletaponair.com/xInstagram: https://www.doubletaponair.com/instagramTikTok: https://www.doubletaponair.com/tiktokThreads: https://www.doubletaponair.com/threadsFacebook: https://www.doubletaponair.com/facebookLinkedIn: https://www.doubletaponair.com/linkedinSubscribe to the Podcast:Apple: https://www.doubletaponair.com/appleSpotify: https://www.doubletaponair.com/spotifyRSS: https://www.doubletaponair.com/podcastiHeadRadio: https://www.doubletaponair.com/iheartAbout Double TapHosted by the insightful duo, Steven Scott and Shaun Preece, Double Tap is a treasure trove of information for anyone who's blind or partially sighted and has a passion for tech.

Google just unveiled its most expensive smartphone ever: the Pixel 10 Pro Fold. Closed, you get a 6.4-inch outer screen. Open it up, and bam: a massive 8-inch display. Learn more about your ad choices. Visit megaphone.fm/adchoices
Huawei tri-foldable phone—an industry first. The Mate XT has been launched to the international market in the Malaysian capital of Kuala Lumpur. Its 10.2-inch screen is similar to the most compact Apple iPads. The company says the phone, first released in China six months prior, is the thinnest foldable phone at 3.6 millimeters (0.14 inches), and though dubbed a trifold, the phone has three mini-panels and folds only twice. Some Huawei enthusiasts praise the phone's design, saying it would look good for lifestyle-conscious consumers. "When I saw the XT, I was just really amazed by it, how unique and elegant it looks,” says Filipino tech journalist Kathleen Manangkil. “It's actually nice for an O-O-T-D (outfit of the day) if you are a content creator who is into lifestyle. I think it would really suit your fashion as well." Arif Ed Osman watched the presentation, and said, "It's actually really impressive like how they've managed to fit everything into this tiny phone. The battery is 1.9 millimeters, width-wise. That's insane if you think about it, the schematics and stuff, right? But in terms of design, in terms of how it looks, in terms of how it feels, seems a very durable product." Bryan Ma, an analyst for International Data Corporation (IDC), says, "Huawei is basically the only one with that kind of design right now. There's rumors about competition from Korea that may eventually come later. But right now, Huawei kind of stands alone as that innovator, who really pushed aggressively quite hard compared to the rest of the other vendors in the industry. And so that's why they stand out." For now, Huawei has the trifold phone market to itself, and launching the Mate XT outside of its home market will help determine what the appetite for this sort of large-screen phone might be. However, the Mate XT's price tag of 3,499 euros ($3,662) is raising some eyebrows in the industry. This article was provided by The Associated Press.

This was a slow week for news, but that doesn't mean we didn't have a lot to talk about. Marques, Andrew, and David kick it off talking about the Apple Vision Pro before pivoting into Google turning on RCS by default on Android. After that, they discuss two new foldables that might be coming soon and talk about the state of the foldable market in general. Then, we end it with a fun new game we're calling "Break the Budget" where the hosts need to pick three tech items without going over a given budget. It's chaotic but a ton of fun! Make sure you stick around to the end for the trivia answers as always. Enjoy!
