A recent report suggests that Samsung\u2019s upcoming Wide Fold might make improvements on that front.<\/p>\n<p>ZDNET Korea reports that the passport-style Galaxy Wide Fold will come with significantly thicker glass over its internal display. Where the regular Galaxy Z Fold 8\u2019s internal display glass will reportedly be 45 micrometers thick, the new wide model could use 60-micrometer-thick glass that could help reduce the crease down the middle of the inner screen.<\/p>\n<p><strong>Don\u2019t want to miss the best from Android Authority?<\/strong><\/p>\n<p><img class=\"e_Ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge light@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_light@2x.png\"\/><img class=\"e_Ph\" decoding=\"async\" loading=\"lazy\" sizes=\"9.375rem\" title=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" srcset=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png 676w, https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x-64w-20h.png 64w\" alt=\"google preferred source badge dark@2x\" src=\"https:\/\/www.androidauthority.com\/wp-content\/uploads\/2025\/09\/google_preferred_source_badge_dark@2x.png\"\/><\/p>\n<p>The report points out that thicker display glass on the Wide Fold\u2019s internal screen could mean both a less visible crease and better durability when the phone is folded shut. It speculates that if the thicker glass over the Wide Fold\u2019s inner display goes over well, Samsung may end up using 60-micrometer-thick inner display glass on next year\u2019s Galaxy Z Fold 9, as well.
