Samsung shows a new flexible display with a barely visible crease
The company detailed a panel for future foldable phones with a tougher protective layer.
Samsung Display has presented a prototype flexible panel for foldable phones. The main promise is a much smaller crease where the screen bends.
What we know
- A new protective glass layer should resist scratches better.
- The panel is rated for hundreds of thousands of folds.
- The company hasn’t said which models will use the display.
Context
The crease is still one of the main reasons people hesitate to buy a foldable. If the technology reaches mass-market devices, it could make foldables appealing to a much wider audience.
