After the release of the original iPhone, the entire mobile phone design concept was stereotyped, and large-screen touch became the only standard. Although the subsequent development in addition to the full screen, but in the innovation is still the same old way. In 2019, Samsung Huawei took the lead in commercializing folding screen mobile phones, which is regarded as the end of traditional straight-screen mobile phones, but 3 years have passed, folding screen mobile phones have not been popularized
However, the development of folding screen mobile phones is very rapid, and there are already two forms of baking, namely tablet + mobile phone and clamshell folding screen, and new forms such as scroll screens and surround screens are also on the way. But is it really only a folding screen that replaces traditional straight-screen mobile phones?
The answer is, of course, no, a subversive innovative concept based on direct-screen mobile phones is being secretly developed by industry tycoon Samsung, that is, transparent screen mobile phones. Speaking of transparent screen mobile phones, it can actually be traced back to a longer era, when Lenovo and Sony Ericsson released the prototype of transparent mobile phones. But after entering the era of touch direct screen mobile phones, due to the lack of physical keyboard part
The internal components are hidden under the screen, and it is almost difficult to achieve a mobile phone with a truly transparent screen. But the transparent screen phone developed by Samsung is half realized in a clever way, and the patent shows that the display of the Samsung transparent phone extends from the right side to the back.
It is also possible to separate the display part of the back from the housing to form a larger screen area. It is also possible to rotate the screen further so that it stands upright, similar to a laptop, and can use multiple applications at the same time. The back can be supported to prevent it from falling off unexpectedly, and it is also equipped with an S Pen stylus. To make the screen transparent, a polarization plate is used
The degree of transparency can range from full transparency to partial translucency. When the user wants to take a picture, the display becomes transparent and allows the camera to shine out. You can also select filter types such as UV filters, neutral L-type filters, polarization filters, and so on. The patent was filed as early as 2020
According to the news given by supply chain sources, Samsung has already manufactured a prototype, but it will take a long time to show it to the outside world, and it will not be expected to be released until next year at the earliest. As a leader in the mobile phone industry, Samsung has been exploring the future technology for all to see in recent years, and the word "future" is often used confidently in marketing terms, and Samsung's heritage is immeasurable!
