Everyone's talking about the iPhone Duo right now, but Samsung and Motorola have been nailing the foldable phones for years. The iPhone Duo, revealed this week at the "Surprise and shine" keynote after years of rumors, starts at $1,999 for 256GB of storage and will be available on Oct. 23. The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 and Z Fold 8 Ultra, as well as Motorola's Razr Fold are available now for much less at T-Mobile. Here's how to score a new foldable phone for less.

Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra deals at T-Mobile
The Z Fold 8 Ultra didn't update much for 2026 (beyond its price), but that's not a bad thing. "The thin chassis, gorgeous displays, and newly improved battery go a long way towards making it a very good phone," Mashable's reviewer writes. If money weren't an object, he says it's his foldable of choice. Fortunately, T-Mobile has made this very expensive phone, which starts at $2,099.99, more approachable. Here are the best Z Fold 8 Ultra deals at T-Mobile as of Sept. 10.
