Leaked video shows off Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra’s crease-less display | Infinium-tech
At CES, Samsung demonstrated a foldable display that has no visible creases. We all knew this was a teaser for the upcoming Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra and now we have proof – someone from the production line took a video of a working device that shows off the invisible crease.
It’s not the best quality video (it gets better after switching to landscape mode), but the main thing to look at is the reflection from the overhead light – this is the kind of lighting setup that brings out the creases the most.
And the display looks absolutely flat. It took a few generations, but Samsung Display finally figured it out. It wouldn’t have been possible without sacrifices, but it’s an impressive accomplishment nonetheless. Will it be better than the “zero-feel crease” of the Oppo Find N6? This question should be asked once we have the review unit. Later, Apple would introduce its first foldable and the crease was a major concern for Cupertino’s perfectionists. The problem was resolved with the help of none other than Samsung Display.
In case you missed it, the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold8 Ultra will be the successor to the Z Fold7. The Galaxy Z Fold8 (without the “Ultra”) will be the new wide-format foldable – dummy units of both were photographed a few days ago. Then there’s the Galaxy Z Flip8, which is the latest (and possibly the last) flip-style foldable. You can see CAD-based renders of all three models (and the Galaxy Watch Ultra 2) here.

We expect to see price increases everywhere in this generation. Samsung has already confirmed that it will use the Snapdragon 8 Elite Gen 5 chipset, although the Z Flip8 will likely also use the Exynos 2600 in some regions.
The new foldables (and new Galaxy Watches) will be officially unveiled on July 22. Pre-reservations are already open and you can get a $30 voucher if you sign up now.
