Flexible displays does not mean flexible phones

soft

While qu'LG proudly unveiled the first OLED flexible, the world is imagined that the smartphone would be flexible around. Wrong place at the confusion is not and will not happen any time soon.
We do not redo the deal, proud of its novelty, LG touted improved performance and unique designs to come next year ... 'Toussa coughed. " However, we can assure you a fully flexible smartphone will not be among these new exciting things.
Flexible displays are new and exciting, and there is no reason to blame in any and obscure reason. It should, however, clarify one or two points, the arrival of flexible displays does not mean the arrival of flexible devices. There are still legitimate obstacles to overcome before such a thing is just possible.
The guts of a smartphone are not designed to be bent, folded or rolled, as some might dream of. The battery, in particular, is not an easy part to relax, other challenges of the electronics are also asking as to how they are deployable beings or cost management to avoid fatally prohibitively expensive.
None of this means that the LG breakthrough is not impressive or important. But we should not expect that people show up to see a foldable LG a few months (or a Samsung, if they coiffent the post). Moreover, this new screen does not sound crazy at first, yet it is constructed from plastic substrates instead of traditional glass making logically less problematic issue of flexibility.
In addition, it is thin 0.44 mm so that rivals even the non-folding screens currently on the market. LG also claims to have created the world's lightest slab, weighing just 7.2 grams for a six inch screen. Finally, as it folds, it will not break as easily as ... glass screen (you know, "unbreakable, unbreakable ... broke"). Note to finish scanning the pictures it is not immune against scratches.
So even though it's tempting to let your mind wander to a phone that rolls into a ball when you read headlines like "flexible displays," cool your ardor young Padawan! Besides, who the hell would want a phone of this ilk?
