The TechOutlook: Samsung patents a retractable display for smartphones
Samsung engineers imagined what a smartphone might look like with a display that extends in different directions. This was reported by The TechOutlook.
Media journalists discovered a Korean corporation’s patent online. Based on the images, the phone proposed by Samsung has a square body and a pop-up screen. The display can be expanded in different directions, depending on the need.
The description of the invention states that the pull-out display mechanism consists of a flexible part and a hinge. The latter is designed in such a way that it allows the flexible panel to be pulled in any direction and compensates for the spring effect.
In particular, the document states that such a design will give strength to the flexible screen and get rid of folds. According to journalists, Samsung, which is the leader in the foldable smartphone market, may use new technologies when designing future devices.
Earlier, sources from The Elec stated that Samsung planned to release an affordable foldable smartphone in 2024. This decision is caused by high competition from Chinese manufacturers.
