News & Reviews:   rollable display

Besides the Galaxy Z Fold4 and Z Flip4, Samsung might be planning to surprise us with a third folding device this year. According to a reputable tipster, Digital Chat Station, the Korean tech giant could finally decide to bring its rollable screen to the market with the mysterious device.

Way back in 2020, TCL showed some prototypes featuring flexible displays that can be used for mobile devices. Specifically, the company has allegedly been working on extendable displays. At CES 2021, TCL CSOT (a TCL subsidiary) finally revealed two such displays.

OPPO is set to unveil several new technologies at its INNO Day event later today. Besides the new AR glasses that we've previously mentioned, it has been confirmed that one of the big highlights would be a new device that features a rollable display.

Display technology has been advancing a lot and it's cool to see companies like Samsung adopt the use of foldable displays. But another unique form factor is on the way and Samsung is aiming to release an actual product featuring it. Specifically, sources claim that Samsung is developing a device that will have a rollable display.

In this new era of flexible displays, foldable devices aren't the only form factor we'll see. There are a few companies like LG and TCL that have been working on rollable displays, but now it seems Samsung is joining the camp. Recently, a new patent for a rollable display was awarded to the company.
