AT&T is running a promotion that lets customers get a Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 at no cost, according to a report from mashable.com. The deal effectively removes the device’s $1,800 price tag for eligible buyers, the outlet said on Tuesday.
Mashable.com’s coverage highlights the promotion as a way to obtain the premium foldable smartphone without paying the full retail amount. The report does not specify the exact terms, such as trade-in requirements or installment plan conditions, but frames the offer as a straightforward path to a free handset.
The Galaxy Z Fold 8 has drawn attention beyond the AT&T deal. A separate review from GSMArena.com covers the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, suggesting the lineup includes a higher-end variant. Additionally, Yonhap News Agency reported that Samsung’s Galaxy Z series logged 1.44 million preorders in South Korea, the highest on record for the company. Telecompaper noted that Korean operators are seeing strong demand for the new foldable, which features a 4:3 screen ratio.
Not all coverage has been glowing. Gadget Review raised a concern about the device’s “crease-free” display, reporting a seven-day problem without providing further detail in the available summary.
The combination of carrier promotions and record preorder numbers points to significant early interest in the Galaxy Z Fold 8. However, potential buyers may want to check the fine print on AT&T’s offer and monitor reviews for any display durability issues before committing. Mashable.com’s report suggests the free deal is available now, but shoppers should verify eligibility directly with the carrier.
