Samsung's 60-Micron Foldable Glass Targets the Crease Before Apple's Fold Arrives

Samsung is reaching for thicker glass to fight the crease, and the timing points straight at Apple. According to a ZDNet Korea report, the wider of Samsung's two book-style foldables this year will carry a 60-micrometre ultra-thin glass layer, around 30 per cent thicker than the 45 micrometres on the taller Galaxy Z Fold 8 Ultra. A thicker layer flattens the fold line and shrugs off drops better. The catch is that the same glass grows more brittle as it bends. Treat all of it as supply-chain reporting; Samsung has stayed quiet on the lot.
