The design reduces the panel's outer-edge thickness by roughly 20% compared to current mass-produced OLED laptop displays.
According to Samsung, the improvement comes from reducing the thickness of both the TFT substrate glass and the encapsulation glass by more than 30%.
To maintain durability, Samsung developed additional manufacturing techniques to prevent flexing or warping.

In recent years, laptop makers have focused on trimming bezels, reducing motherboard footprints, and developing compact cooling systems.
Displays have not always received the same attention due to physical limits on how thin panel structures can become.
Samsung's prototype suggests there is still room to push further. The company has not announced any products using the panel yet, nor shared a mass production timeline.
