On January 6th, reports emerged indicating that Samsung made its public debut of a crease-free foldable OLED panel at CES 2026. This innovative panel is slated to be incorporated into the Galaxy Z Fold8 foldable smartphone, which is anticipated to hit the market in the latter half of this year. Additionally, there's a chance that it could find its way into Apple's inaugural foldable smartphone, the iPhone Fold. As per Sammobile, this particular foldable panel boasts an almost crease-free visual appearance. At its exhibition booth, Samsung has established a dedicated 'crease test' zone to facilitate a direct comparison between the new panel and currently available products. Company officials have asserted that the new panel ensures 'uninterrupted text display across the folding region,' effectively minimizing the 'crack' issue that has been a common drawback of traditional foldable screens. This results in a more unified and seamless viewing experience for users.
