First Look: Samsung's Creaseless Foldable Screen Hints at iPhone Fold

Samsung Display's crease-free OLED panel includes under-display camera tech and may debut in Apple’s first foldable iPhone and Samsung’s future foldables, showcased at CES 2026.

  • Samsung Display unveiled the Advanced Crease-less OLED panel at CES 2026, displaying it side-by-side with the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 7 in Samsung's booth.
  • Reports say Apple pursued a creaseless screen that delayed its foldable plans, and because Samsung Display supplies Apple, this panel is a candidate for the creaseless iPhone Fold expected later this year.
  • Demonstrating the tech, Samsung's prototype showed under‑display camera technology and tablet-like flattening, with SamMobile and @UniverseIce sharing hands-on images and early impressions.
  • Following initial reports, the prototype was removed from Samsung's booth, and Omnicom PR spokesperson Rosie Kim told The Verge that `The foldable panel showcased at the booth was an R&D concept, with no fixed timeline or plan for commercialization`.
  • Not all sources expect the panel on Samsung's next flagship, as @UniverseIce makes no mention of the Galaxy Z Fold 8, amid plans for other foldables like Motorola Razr Fold and Galaxy Z TriFold.
