In recent years, mobile phone manufacturers all over the world have been exploring the evolution of mobile phone screens, from micro-frames, no borders to the current comprehensive screen, and the next era of exploration goals will be folding screens. The technology development, such as Apple, Samsung, LG, Huawei and many other mobile phone giants have their own folding screen patents, it seems that the arrival of this era will not let us wait too long.
Recently, the US Trademark Patent Office has announced a new patent related to folding screens that Apple has obtained. In the design diagram, we can see that this mobile phone is composed of two OLED flexible screens connected by hinges in the middle. It is worth mentioning that its hinge can be bent in both directions.
In addition, in this concept phone, Apple puts the battery in the hinge instead of the bottom of the screen, which makes the body as thin and light as possible. Of course, the battery also needs to have foldable features, if true To implement a real product for mass production, safety must be fully verified.
Judging from the current technical conditions, OLED screens have become the hot-selling patents of major mobile phone manufacturers because of their thinness, flexibility, and low power consumption. Once Apple’s new patent is officially put into production, there is still a lot of A big chance will be purchased from Samsung. In this way, Samsung's OLED screen will bring a lot of profits in the future.
Of course, there are still many technical problems for mass production of folding screen mobile phones. Therefore, there are still many ways to go before the full use of folding screens on mobile phone screens.
