In addition, in order to make the screen display better, the screen uses a UTG ultra-thin glass cover. This glass fundamentally balances the folding (durability) and display effects. As for the curvature of the screen, the details released by Samsung show that a folding radius of 1.4R (1.4mm) can be achieved. This has the advantage of reducing the difficulty of hinge design and reducing costs while also minimizing the folding pressure.

Since there is still free space at the L8-1 plant, the production of panels for QD-OLED TVs of the OLED 8.5 generation (2200 × 2500 mm) will be additionally expanded here – this technology is more economical than the sixth generation version.
