About smartphoneoneSmartphones with foldable or flexible displays have been rumored for some time. According to several sources, such a smartphone wouldone It was supposed to be introduced by Samsung by the end of the year. Apple as of today, it also owns another patent, the use of which could mean that we will see iPhones with a flexible display in the future. The patent thus more or less confirms analytical reports from the past months, which predict the arrival of the flexible iPhone.

A patent application published late last year described a display that could be opened and closed like a book. The description of today's patent is, as is very often the case, comprehensible perhaps only to the author of the patent application. “Electronic devices can contain multiple cases. Their parts can be connected by hinges, which can be three, four, with slots, from flexible supporting structures or based on flexible structures of the case itself. The displays can then be mounted on the parts of the case that will overlap the hinges. When the cover bends, the display bends too,” it is in the description of the patent.
This is what the patent looks like in graphic form:
The patent simply counts with smartphonesonem, which will have a single display with the ability to bend in certain places. The concept itself is similar to last year's patent application, this is just a more specific description of the method of implementation. However, foldable smartphones already exist among Android competitors. This "convenience" has already been introduced by ZTE on its Axon M model. The problem is that the smartphoneone Although it can be folded, it has two displays.

What do you think about this potential trend? Would you like it? iPhone se with a folding display, or are you conservative and would you rather prefer a solid classic?
anachronism
We're going to make sunk and cheese
...and then put the vulture in the oven with it ;)
supeeeeer, you make my day :)
On sale already in 2120 😄
I don't know what it's good for, I don't see any potential in it, but maybe I'm wrong.
Why such nonsense?
And I'm going to drag my crumpled phone in my pocket like a piece of paper, right? :D
Not really..
It will be interesting to see how manufacturers of protective glasses deal with this.
That's what I thought first too. Then, after a while, it'll probably be full of microcapillary scratches.anc:-( At first I was also a fan of the foldable mobile phone, even before the ideas for it were even released, someone must have gotten into my head and hooray, the idea was born :-) Now the thoughts of the foldable mobile phone have left me.
Why stuff a foldable phone in your pocket when I can easily carry an NB in my bag if I need something big. Otherwise, the phone's display is OK. I'm fully satisfied with the XS, I wanted to buy it MAXYes, but now I'm glad I didn't, because I would probably have sold it or exchanged it for a smaller XS.
I'd rather not ask iPhone users for similar opinions, they usually have everything wrong, see Samsung's mockery of the Note because of its size and suddenly, "Blink, click!" iPhone X is born!
You flasher, what about when the iPhone 5 came out? Everyone laughed at its size, they made pictures of lightsabers in the form of iPhones, and so ononec was iPhone one of the smallest phones on the market :D
After all, it's been at least four years since he came Apple with flexible phoneonem :-) "BENDGATE"
The only advantage I can see is that if it falls, it won't break but just bends :D
??? ... I don't understand! This has been around for years, it's called a wallet.
Well, that's right, the man is an expert :-D But seriously, it's been here before, Nokia or MS came up with it once, I can't remember now. But it's quite possible that someone else came up with the first idea. Personally, I don't know if I would want/use it, because I hate micro-scratchesance on the display – I know they are almost invisible, only at a certain angle when the display is off, but the feeling that you don't have a display is OK :-( But who knows, maybe flexible protective glass will be made, or we will go back to foils :-D But foil probably wouldn't make bending much easier....
