Samsung Galaxy Z Flip4 could have shallower crease

As you all know, the one thing that many dislike about foldable devices is the crease. While it's something you get used to after some time, it's a visual blemish that you can't quite ignore. But Samsung plans to make it less visible with the Galaxy Z Flip4.

According to IceUniverse, the Galaxy Z Flip4 would have a shallower crease. This suggests an upgrade to the hinge, which was something hinted at before. It's also possible that Samsung is adjusting the way the phone folds or using a display that's more resistant to creases. The tipster also claimed that "most people will be satisfied".

Leaked images indicate that a new hinge is a more likely outcome. As you can see, the alleged protective case for the Galaxy Z Flip4 sports a smaller opening for the hinge. Besides that, the cutout for the rear is also slightly larger (1.9-inch to 2.1-inch) than the one for last year's model. This corresponds with the previous rumour of a larger cover screen.

Overall, we can expect some minor tweaks to the design and hinge. That should make this year's model a much better foldable device, which is good news for those who are planning to get one. Are you?
