Korean company Samsung Display has announced the launch of a new brand MONT FLEX for foldable OLED displays, which will be presented at the K-Display 2025 exhibition. The brand name MONT FLEX stands for a combination of four technical characteristics: "M" - mechanical strength, "O" - optomechanical flatness, "N" - narrow bezels, "T" - thin and light design.
The company said that the updated shock-resistant structure has allowed the Galaxy Fold7 and Flip7 screens to withstand up to 500,000 folding cycles. Special attention has also been paid to reducing the visibility of the crease on the display. Narrower bezels help expand the usable screen area, while the reduced display thickness makes the devices lighter.
The name "Mont", which translates from French as "mountain", was also chosen to represent the technological pinnacle of innovation in the field of foldable screens.
According to Jae-Nam Yoon, Executive Vice President of Samsung Display, the company is the first in the industry to use Ultra-Thin Glass (UTG) and LEAD technology, which provides low power consumption, environmental friendliness, improved brightness and lightness. The composite panels also use OCF - On-Cell Film technology, which positively affects visual characteristics.
Samsung Display is not limited to using foldable displays only in the Galaxy Z line and is already supplying these solutions to other manufacturers. Previously, well-known analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said that Samsung Display plans to increase its capacity to produce 7-8 million foldable panels per year for the foldable iPhone in 2026.
