FULL STORY ======================================================================Samsung has shown off a crease-free foldable display This screen will likely be used by the rumored iPhone Fold It might also be used by a Samsung foldable

Weve been hearing for a while now that Apple intends for its first foldable phone to have a creaseless display , and that this desire might at least be
in part why were yet to see it, as the tech wasnt ready yet. But now it seems the tech is ready, as Samsung has shown off just such a screen at CES 2026 .

Images of the display have been shared by the likes of SamMobile and @UniverseIce , with Samsung displaying it alongside the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 s panel, so you can clearly see the difference.

With the Galaxy Z Fold 7, theres a small but very obvious crease in the display, whereas this new panel appears to have no visible crease at all.

Thats actually more relevant for the iPhone Fold than any Samsung phone, as @UniverseIce claims that Apple will incorporate this display technology, so the foldable iPhone might be the first phone to offer this creaseless
display.

Of course, Samsung is also expected to launch foldable phones this year, but @UniverseIce who has a strong track record for tech tips makes no mention
of it appearing on the flagship Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8. However, they do say that theres a chance it will be used by the Samsung Galaxy Wide Fold a rumored foldable phone that could have a more tablet-like aspect ratio if Samsungs mobile business is prepared to pay for it.

But that also suggests any Samsung phones that do have this display could
cost even more than the companys current foldables.

In any case, the iPhone Fold is somewhat likely to land this September, alongside the iPhone 18 line, while the Samsung Galaxy Wide Fold could launch in July, so theres likely a good few months before well see any phones equipped with this display panel.
