The Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 3 was one of the best devices in 2021, and it seems that Samsung wants to make its successor even better. Samsung’s largest foldable device may not be the perfect phone, but at least it gets several things right. For instance, it features great cameras, water resistance, stylus support, and a great display. However, Samsung may have found a way to improve the Ultra-Thin Display used in its foldable phones, and it seems that we may see it in the upcoming Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4.

According to information found at Naver, Samsung will include improved Ultra-Thin Glass on the new Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 4. This new and stronger version of its UTG will allegedly help it become more durable.

This will be installed on the Galaxy Fold 4

UTG is equipped with UTG with improved hardness and quality.

UTG, which was mounted on the Fold 3, is not a fundamental improvement, but rather for the Spen installation.

Considering that hardness and related yields have been compromised, this UTG is more competitive with the previous generation.

It is UTG that differentiates it.

  1. Overall improvement of UTG hardness as well as related processes

  2. In particular, when applying Spen for the first time last year, some problems related to quality that were not secured were improved.

Samsung has used its UTG displays since the launch of the Samsung Galaxy Z Fold 2, which means that we have also seen it feature in Samsung’s latest foldables, including the Galaxy Z Fold 3, Galaxy Z Flip 3, and Galaxy Z Flip 5G. However, it is far from being perfect. Several Samsung Galaxy foldable users have reported cracks on their devices, which aren’t that common. Still, it is a real problem that needs to be fixed before foldable devices can genuinely become exceptional.

Whatever the case, the rumor citing domestic supply chain sources claims that the new generation of Samsung’s UTG may feature “improved hardness and quality,” but we will have to wait and see. The rumor doesn’t explain how this new version of UTG will be better than the current version found in Samsung’s latest foldables. I just hope it helps to get rid of those occasional cracked displays.
