Samsung finally grasp the near lack of Galaxy Z fold 6SE fold

The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold6Special Edition (SE), released as W25 in China, is unlikely to make inroads in the U.S. or Europe as well, but an improvement over the standard Galaxy Z Fold6 released around the world earlier this year is likely to be what Samsung foldable will see next year. 

For one, the special edition of the Z-Fold 6 has a thinner frame, but anyone who has gotten their hands on the new foldable 6

Foldable phones usually have folds on the internal display where the panel is folded in two. In the case of Samsung's past Z Fold models, its folds are visible, especially if the display has a bright background.

The regular Samsung leaker Ice Universe alluded to Samsung improving its crease in early May, saying: "This time, [Samsung] did a better job than ever with crease control.

Display analyst Ross Young responded to that tweet by saying it was due to Samsung UFG for the first time. UFG refers to "ultra-flexible glass."Another leaker, Jukanlosreve, claimed that UFG has higher strength than UTG (ultra-thin glass) and flat screen. Until now, Samsung has used UTG for its foldable displays.

The Ice Universe is back today (11/7) with a video showing off the hard creases in the spot. On a white background, it is difficult to really make something unfounded, where the folds are actually.

IceUniverse also posted another video that turned off the screen where the crease was perceptible but still fairly flat. Other videos show off the Z Fold6SE against the OnePlus Open. The difference between the 2 devices is quite obvious in the 2nd video.

While it may be functionally impossible to completely remove the crease of a foldable phone, it is certainly not so noticeable.

Again, while the W25 may not be launched outside of China or South Korea, I can't imagine Samsung won't put these improvements into the Galaxy Z Fold7. If anything, the Z Fold6SE may be a test for South Korean companies to try out their UFG displays and see what they can do before a more global launch.
