The UI does not allow enough space to show the full album name. When an album name is quite long there is currently no way to see the full name, as the title appears truncated.
Solutions to this could be to have a 'List view' which would allow more space for text, or to have longer album names dynamically scroll/progress sideways to show the full name.

If I understand the options correctly, I think I'd prefer "list view."
 
If List view is like what is being shown for tracks, then that will not be my preference.
Currently, if I am not mistaken, is a 2 line text which I think is good though it may not show the entire title. I assume if it is to be scrolled horizontally, then it will become a one line which I find it a bit distracting.

If a list view is eventually deployed, I hope user will be able to choose between list and tiled.

Thanks

I'd certainly envisage this a view mode that can be switched/toggled, I cannot see us 'forcing' this view on users!
It would hypothetically be similar to how tracks are shown on a playlist, where there is a greatly reduced Cover art thumbnail that instead allows more space for longer album titles, and also for more albums to be shown on the screen at any one time for slightly more rapid scrolling.

Thanks. Just gotten my Zen NG a few weeks back so have yet to create my playlists. I just did it and take a look at the view.
I just upvote it. 😁😁
