2019: Folding Cell Phone
Mobile manufacturers have put their trust in smartphones to help consumers turn their smartphone over again. Flexible display promise appeared a few years ago with some of the awesome prototypes developed by several companies (Sony, LG, Samsung, etc.). This option allows you to resize, crash or rotate tablets and smartphones, among other devices.
In fact, this technology will be, according to the well-known sector, the commitment of mobile manufacturers in the coming years. Similarly, mobile manufacturers expect the screens to be wasted and the opportunities they offer allow consumers to go back to smarthphones.
In fact, the decrease in mobile distribution shows the loss of interest. According to the IDC market analysis company, mobile distribution has fallen by six percentage points in the third quarter of last year compared to the previous year, largely due to the public's spotting over recent years and lack of innovation.
During the final speech by Samsung Developers (SDC 2018), the company announced its Infinity Flex Display screen. Samsung did not give much accuracy and announced just the screen, without attaching a specific device. Samsung, like the LG Display, is a veteran of the development of prototype screens, and it seems to be one of the first manufacturers to offer folding mobile phones.
This type of device will have the ability to fulfill a dual function: like a smartphone and a tablet of small dimensions (7.3 inches in this case Samsung), which can be accessed as a book and pocket, just like a smartphone. According to Samsung, "Infinity Flex is a preview of future mobile screens."
Presented at the Mobile World Congress
While Samsung advanced its flexible screen, another manufacturer, Royol's almost unknown, had a tabletop folding screen, 7.8 inches, called FlexPai. Huawei also wants to announce its first flickable mobile phone in 2019 and LG, a veteran in folding screen manufacturing, has said he will begin to study this kind of device.
LG, a flexible Oled panel, has a prototype of a rotating screen like a bundle of a projector.
Additionally, Xiaomi, Lenovo, Oppo and ZTE are added. These brands are among the top 10 brands that have been distributed by the Chinese BOE Technology, according to China Daily.
It seems that the first models will be available in 2019 or later. But first mobile folding proposals will be visible next February in Mobile World Congress in Barcelona in 2019.
Proposals
Here are some of the folding mobiles that have come up to date:
-
OPPO: OPPO, like many other mobile manufacturers, has said its mobile phone will be presented in the first months of 2019 and will take its model to MWC.
-
Huawei: Huawei also wants to fight against Samsung Galaxy F with its folding portable screen display.
-
Samsung W2019: China's flip-phone is still public and announces its dual-screen mobile phone, combining traditional features and high levels.
-
LG and Lenovo: it seems that LG and Lenovo have signed an agreement to manufacture a 13-inch folding tablet.
