Samsung Display’s Crease‑Less Foldable OLED Briefly Shown at CES Before Removal

Samsung says the panel is an R&D concept with no plan or timetable for commercialization.

Overview

  • Attendees reported the prototype showed no visible crease versus a Galaxy Z Fold 7 in a side-by-side “crease test.”
  • The panel reportedly pairs with a laser‑drilled metal display plate designed to disperse folding stress, with Fine M‑Tec cited as the supplier.
  • Samsung Display acknowledged the demo but offered no explanation for pulling it from the booth after initial sightings.
  • Coverage notes potential adoption in Samsung’s next Galaxy Z Fold and Apple’s long‑rumored foldable iPhone, though timing remains unconfirmed.
  • Separately, Samsung showed its Galaxy Z TriFold to press after a limited South Korea release, with reports suggesting high costs and per‑unit losses.
