We can briefly pick up the crease in the middle where the phone folds before the device is unlocked and the crease seemingly disappears on the white background. Well just have to wait and get our hands on the Z Flip to see if the crease would stick out in daily use. We also get a quick glimpse of the side that does not shut flat and has a wider opening near the folding mechanism. The lower back half of the device which does not house any logos or text and sits flush.
