We've got a lot going on lately and the question, "Hey, what phone does a rich and famous person use?" isn't at the top of the list for, I hope, the majority of us. But if you're curious about it, here's the answer.
Nvidia's CEO Jensen Huang, one of the most important and most recognized tech figures, is on the Galaxy Z Fold 8. Yes, the wider-than-taller foldable, not the square-like Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra.
He talked to Trump on it

Jensen Huang was spotted rocking the passport-like Galaxy Z Fold 8 at the recent All-In Summit in Los Angeles. Huang was once again wearing his trademark black leather jacket, but his phone, I think, made a bigger impression.
Huang got his Galaxy Z Fold 8 while on stage and got a call from US President Donald Trump to talk about AI and the potential risks like wiping out all humanity.
I don't know how you'd put Trump in your phone if you had his number, but Huang has him under "President Trump". The Galaxy Z Fold 8's cover screen is so wide that the moniker is laid out on a single row. I wonder if "President" will be changed back to "Donald" after 2028. But I digress.
Do you think foldables will ever outsell "normal" smartphones?

A Samsung Galaxy Z Fold tradition
Some months ago, Jensen Huang was spotted in the company of Elon Musk and both men showed their phones. At the time, Huang was rocking the Galaxy Z Fold 7, as the Galaxy Z Fold 8 series wasn't a thing back then. Musk, meanwhile, was using an iPhone. Maybe he's still using it to this day…

Why not the iPhone Duo?
If you think that Jensen Huang doesn't have the iPhone Duo because availability for Apple's first-ever foldable iPhone is pushed back to October, I have a bridge to sell you.
Once you're in the billion-dollar business (and these guys are in the trillion-dollar business, mind you), all limits are off. Huang probably hasn't asked Apple for an iPhone Duo unit; what's more, I think John Ternus (the newly appointed Apple CEO) wants to keep the Duo exclusive to himself for some extra time.
