A representative of Samsung Display said that it will display two flexible screens at CES early next year: one is a 5.5-inch, 267ppi pixel density 720p smartphone flexible screen. The other is built for a 55-inch flat-screen TV, the parameters are not yet known. The two screens are flexible and extensible, but they cannot be rolled or folded like paper. Samsung said it will continue to improve the flexible screen technology to achieve a truly flexible screen.
Earlier, according to foreign reports, Samsung hopes to launch related products first to win market opportunities, and will launch the first batch of devices with flexible screens in the first half of 2013. Currently, Nokia, LG, Philips and others are also developing flexible screen technologies. LG and Nokia also recently demonstrated flexible screen samples for smartphones and tablets. It is also reported that LG's e-ink flexible screen has begun mass production.
Benefits of flexible screens
Light and thin: Traditional LCD screens and OLED screens generally use a 6-layer architecture, while flexible screens have only a 4-layer architecture, so flexible screens are lighter and thinner.
Durable: The flexible screen avoids the use of glass materials, and is more durable than traditional screens. There is no need to worry about breaking the screen. Samsung even called its screen unbreakable.
Freedom of design: Flexible display provides design freedom. With flexible screens, manufacturers can develop "wearable" devices. For example, the Nokia concept device Morph uses a hybrid of watch and cell phone made of fibril protein, which can move and bend freely into various shapes.
Flexible screens require hard technology
It is reported that Samsung has encountered some difficulties in the production of flexible screens. The new flexible AMOLED screen has a resolution of only 720P. In addition to the materials used to manufacture the screen, it also needs to be equipped with a touch panel and an outer protective lens The combination of these two components and the screen constitutes a practical display screen.
Obviously, this is a common problem for all manufacturers interested in the development of flexible screens. The screen is only a part of the display device, which itself is not very practical. If the flexible screen is to be put into practical use to fully utilize its advantages, it must be assembled on the device and integrated with other components. This requires special components, materials, circuits, etc. If you want to achieve a richer application function, you also need to have the corresponding software.
Practicality determines the future
Many portable devices are already thin, light, and durable. If the function of a flexible screen is only thin, light, and durable, it is a bit overkill. Of course, consumers will not want to buy a separate screen rolled up and put it in their pockets, so there is no practicality.
Therefore, in order to make the flexible screen go further, manufacturers and developers must consider ways to make the flexible screen more practical, stimulate consumers' buying interest, and establish a user base.
At present, the flexible screen can be the development direction of the screen in the future, because it has advantages that the traditional screen cannot match, which is in line with the development trend of large and light display devices. However, there are still many technical problems that need to be overcome, and its practicality has yet to be verified, so as to win the support of consumers.
