[E-Daily Reporter Han Kwangbeom ] SamsungElectronics(005930) The 'Galaxy Z Flip 8' offers a differentiated mobile experience that allows users to seamlessly handle their daily routines without even unfolding the device, thanks to its significantly enhanced cover display, the 'Flex Window.' It maximizes practical usability by combining the thinnest and lightest compact form factor in the history of the Galaxy Z Flip series with a highly integrated cover display ecosystem.
According to the SamsungElectronics Newsroom on the 28th, the Flex Window on the Galaxy Z Flip 8 features intuitive, everyday functions that seamlessly integrate with daily life while the device remains folded.
When the morning begins, users can simply dismiss their alarm on the Flex Window without having to unfold the device, then prepare for the day by checking today’s weather and their full schedule at a glance via the “Now Brief” feature.
Before heading out, you can also quickly check your appearance and style using the “Mirror View” feature, which turns the cover screen into a mirror.
In particular, through deep integration with AI, the cover display has evolved from a simple notification panel into a smart mobile agent.
When you launch “Gemini Notebook” on the Flex Window while studying or working, it not only meticulously summarizes recorded lectures or meeting files but also instantly formats them into various document and content types of your choice.
The agent-like AI experience is also fully realized on the cover screen. After summoning Google Gemini by voice and making requests such as “Find a good Italian restaurant near Hongdae” or “Make a reservation for three people at 7 p.m. today,” it proactively handles everything in a single step—from searching for restaurants to making an actual reservation with the specified number of people and time.
In addition, when meeting up with friends or dining out, you can use the Flex Window camera to instantly take high-quality photos without having to unfold the device, and frequently used convenience features—such as sending and receiving messages and scheduling appointments—can be executed immediately from the cover screen.
A SamsungElectronics spokesperson stated, “We’ve combined the thinnest and lightest form factor in the history of the Galaxy Z Flip with a further-evolved Flex Window,” adding, “Users will be able to conveniently use the device—from taking photos to launching frequently used apps and experiencing agentic AI—without having to unfold it.”
