Samsung usually launches its flagship Galaxy foldables sometime in July and this year as well, it appears the brand is on track. The upcoming Galaxy Z Flip 8 has now surfaced in the US Federal Communications Commission (FCC) database, suggesting the tech giant has started the final regulatory steps ahead of its official debut.
The FCC certification, spotted by tech publication 91Mobiles, was granted to a Samsung device carrying the model number SM-F776U, which is believed to be the carrier-locked UI variant of the Galaxy Z Flip 8.

The listing does not confirm the phone's design as we saw with leaked Galaxy Z Flip 8 renders. However, it does reveal several connectivity features, including 5G support, Wi-Fi 6E/7, Bluetooth, GNSS, NFC, wireless charging and reverse wireless charging.
This comes after the Galaxy Z Fold 8 Wide BIS listing was spotted recently. So, the timing is indeed perfect and it appears the brand is prepping all the phones to launch soon.
