I don't know when it started, the screen of the mobile phone is getting bigger and bigger. To this end, folding screen mobile phones also came into being. Major mobile phone manufacturers have also launched their own products, and the design is also different.
For example, Samsung's Galaxy Fold should be the first model to be listed.
At the end of last year, OPPO also launched a concept machine that can be folded in segments to win with small size.
Huawei also has a folding screen phone Mate X2, the screen is larger, when it is expanded to 8 inches, it can almost replace the tablet.
However, VIVO believes that this is not enough.
Their latest patent exposure shows that the folding screen phone they are developing can be turned into a laptop.
When it is folded, it is an ordinary mobile phone. But when fully unfolded, its screen tripled in size, about 12 inches. At the same time, the ratio column is displayed for 16;9.
Unlike the folding screen phones currently on the market, an innovative telescopic system replaces the hinge, which can be placed in the top and bottom grooves of the phone shell, and when folded, it can guide the screen to fold in the correct direction.
At the same time, there is a hidden bracket on the back, which can stand on the table when it is unfolded and can be freely adjusted at an angle.
Of course, that's not all. Its biggest highlight is that in the lower left corner and lower right corner of the screen, there is an optical signal transceiver.
This way, when it is placed on the table, the keyboard automatically projects in front of it, and the phone becomes a laptop in seconds.
Also, the signal transceiver can detect whether the area showing the keyboard is available. If not available, the keyboard will automatically appear on the smartphone screen.
In addition, there is a front-facing camera at the top of the edge of the screen.
And a built-in fingerprint sensor, which is integrated at the bottom of the screen.
There are various buttons on the left side, including volume keys, as well as power buttons.
There is a dual speaker and a USB jack on the bottom.
There is even an integrated 3.5mm headphone jack. Although there are almost no headphone jacks on today's mobile phones, it is a common configuration on laptops.
At present, there are rumors that the device will be launched sometime next year, but the first to appear should be a two-screen folding phone.
Innovator Jun felt that if the mobile phone really became like this, the laptop could not be used.
