Samsung's Z Fold 8 Ultra crease is getting visibly worse, and it's only two weeks old
Key Points:
- Foldable phone skeptics often cite durability concerns, particularly regarding the visible crease where the screen folds, as a major drawback.
- The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra, despite improvements in making the crease less visible with Ultra Thin Glass, reportedly develops a more pronounced crease faster than the Oppo Find N6, according to an X leaker and Android Authority.
- The Oppo Find N6 features "self-healing memory glass technology," which may contribute to its crease being less noticeable even after longer use, while the Z Fold 8 Ultra has a new hinge design that could be influencing crease development.
- Despite the crease worsening in a short time, reviewers note that the crease does not significantly affect the user experience, and many users eventually stop noticing it during regular use.
- Samsung has reinforced the Z Fold 8 Ultra's display with Flex Titanium and redesigned the hinge to improve durability, but new innovations may introduce unexpected issues like increased crease visibility.
