Galaxy Z Fold 8, Z Wide Fold Charging Speeds Unveiled
Samsung is preparing three new foldable phones for its summer Unpacked event. The lineup includes the Galaxy Z Fold 8, a Wide Fold variant, and the Galaxy Z Flip 8.
Chinese regulator 3C has published several certifications for these devices. The listings reveal wired charging capabilities for the upcoming models.
3C listings and model numbers
Two model numbers appeared on the 3C database. SM-F9710 and SM-F9760 likely correspond to Chinese variants of the Z Wide Fold and Galaxy Z Fold 8.
- SM-F9710 — associated with the wide fold model.
- SM-F9760 — associated with the standard fold model.
Charging details revealed
Earlier 3C paperwork indicated the Galaxy Z Flip 8 supports 25W wired charging. That certification surfaced before the foldable listings.
The Fold 8 and Wide Fold listings show support for up to 15V at 3A. That equals 45W of wired charging power.
Wired versus wireless
3C certifications typically list wired charging specifications. The 45W figure applies to wired charging only.
Wireless speeds were not detailed in the listings released so far.
How the boost compares
The Galaxy Z Fold 7 capped wired charging at 25W. A move to 45W would represent a clear jump in charging capability.
Reports titled Z Wide Fold Charging Speeds Unveiled point to this higher wired rate.
