The Ultra has the larger 8.0″ screen, but it is nearly square, while the regular Z Fold 8’s 7.6″ panel is 4:3. So for video the bigger screen buys nothing: 16:9 plays at about 7.0″ on the Fold 8 and 6.8″ on the Ultra, practically a tie. The Ultra pays off with square content, where 1:1 posts get about 1.4× the area.
