Samsung has made some improvements to its foldables, but the Galaxy Z Fold 6 still has some familiar issues such as average battery life, a narrow cover panel, and a visible crease on the inner panel.
The upcoming Galaxy Z Fold 7 is expected to address at least one of these issues. Samsung Display recently showcased a creaseless panel at MWC 2025, and it could potentially be featured in the new foldable device. While Samsung Display and Samsung’s phone division are separate entities, the former supplies panels to the latter, making it likely that the creaseless panel will be integrated into the Z Fold 7.
The comparison between the new creaseless panel and the standard Galaxy Z Fold 6 panel shows a significant improvement. The creaseless panel offers a smoother surface, similar to what other manufacturers like OPPO and Honor are offering. Samsung’s foldables have lacked in this area, often feeling outdated compared to the competition.
The Galaxy Z Fold 7 is expected to compete well with Chinese manufacturers in 2025 with the introduction of the new creaseless panel. While the technology may not be as advanced as some competitors, the difference is noticeable and a step in the right direction for Samsung’s foldable devices.
While it’s not confirmed whether Samsung will use this new panel, the potential for a better display technology is promising for the Z Fold 7. The launch of the device is anticipated for July, but more details should emerge in the coming weeks.
