Samsung launched OLEDEra, dedicated website for foldable displays
Samsung’s technology with foldable screens is unmatched in the market now. The same can be said of its standard OLED panels for laptops/notebooks. To better demonstrate its capabilities in the display industry, Samsung has now introduced a dedicated site that explains its compact display.
The company’s flexible OLED screens are officially known as “Flex OLED” on the website. Clicking on this option displays a small category of displays, including Flex Bar, Flex Note, Flex Square, Rollable Flex, and Slidable Flex.
Starting with Flex Bar, this screen is designed for clamshell devices as the company’s Galaxy Z Flip series. Meanwhile, the Flex Note refers to folding screens intended for portable laptops, and Flex Square is what we see on devices like the Galaxy Z Fold 3. Rollable Flex and Slidable Flex screens are ideas under development right now. Competitive manufacturer LG uses rolling screens in its OLED TV R Signature lineup.
Samsung Flex OLED display with HDR10+ and high brightness levels
At the time, slidable screens made headlines this year after OPPO introduced the OPPO X concept a few months ago. However, the phone does not seem to be launching anytime soon. It is clear that Samsung Display’s ambitions are very high, and a new website shows that.
The company claims that its flexible OLEDs offer high brightness, low folding radius (R1.4), and HDR1 + support. In addition, Samsung’s Ultra-Thin Glass (UTG) technology reportedly provides better screen protection than competitors’ offerings.
Samsung also claims that its foldable displays can survive up to 200,000 folders. This is about 100 folds/unfolds displays each day for five years. In short, the company wants the world to know that its foldable or Flex OLED screens can withstand the test of time.
Although the company has just launched the Galaxy Z Fold 3, we are already learning about its successor. One report suggests that the Galaxy Z Fold 4 may be cheaper than its predecessor. So we can get into 2022 which is very exciting.

Samsung could cancel Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE launch
- Samsung is said to reconsider its plan to launch Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE this year.
- Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 6 may only launch in July Unpacked.
- Partners preparing for mass production of only two foldable models.
Samsung might not launch the affordable Galaxy Z Fold 6 FE this year. A new report indicates that the company will entirely review its plan to bring a cheaper foldable phone to the market. The first FE foldable likely won’t see the light at least in 2024.
TheElec reports that Samsung has “entered a full review” of the Z Fold 6 FE launch. The company may only release the Galaxy Z Flip 6 and Galaxy Z Fold 6 at the July 2024 Unpacked. Samsung partners reportedly start mass production this month for both models.
The report mentions that the FE foldable could be canceled due to a lack of product differentiation and uncertain market conditions. Despite removing S Pen-compatible components, the company failed to reduce the thickness of the Fold 6 FE to the regular model.
The South Korean tech giant conducted folding tests on the cheaper Galaxy Z Fold 6. This test was performed to ensure the durability of the product before entering the market. It was observed that the thickness was not thinner than that of Chinese foldable phones.

Samsung is rumored to introduce a Battery AI feature with One UI 6.1.1. This feature’s inclusion is said to bring a 5 to 10 percent boost in overall runtime. Users are expected to notice an additional runtime of up to 30 minutes in the same battery capacity.
According to a rumor, Samsung could launch a Battery AI feature with One UI 6.1.1. While the rumor doesn’t mention One UI 6.1.1 anywhere, the supported model will surely bring it. Battery AI is said to be available in the Galaxy Z Fold 6 to offer longer battery life.
Apart from this, Wccftech highlights that Battery AI will be available for older Galaxy models too. While supported models aren’t defined by the source, we can expect the feature to arrive on phones and tablets that have received Galaxy AI.
Previously, it was rumored that the Galaxy S25 would come with a Battery AI feature. The sketchy rumor claimed that the operating system would be optimized to monitor and hibernate apps. A similar feature is already available, but the power of AI will enhance accuracy.
One UI 7 will be based on the Android 15 operating system. Beta starts around August, the software will go live sometime in October this year. Aligned with the Galaxy S25 launch, Battery AI was rumored to be a part of Samsung’s One UI 7.1 software.
