Ever since Motorola and Samsung released phones with foldable screens, the smartphone market has entered a new era. Not so long ago, we learned that Apple began testing the iPhone with a foldable screen and required the supplier to provide hinges that could be folded more than 1 million times during the test.
Після того, як виробники смартфонів, такі як Huawei, Samsung і Motorola, запустили складні продукти, в усьому світі з’явилася тенденція на розкладачки.
Compared to the traditional two-stage folding screen smartphone design, Chinese smartphone maker OPPO seems to have its own vision. Recently, OPPO and the Japanese design team Nendo released a three-hinged foldable smartphone.
From the outside, it can be seen that the shape of the machine is similar to a bank card. It consists of a 4-segment body connected by 3 loops. The screen can be fully extended up to 7 inches. By default, the folder is folded in half, and the stylus is built-in.
At the first stage, when the smartphone is unfolded, a 40-mm screen opens to display information or make calls. And at the second stage, an 80-millimeter screen with a lens extended upwards will be shown. It can be used to take photos and videos.
At the last stage, the smartphone will be fully deployed, forming a 7-inch screen. Different program information can be displayed on three screens at the same time.
However, this smartphone is still at the concept stage. And we do not know whether it will be serially produced.
However, the ultra-high screen-to-body ratio of this concept phone and the ability to customize the screen and other functions could become a major trend in the development of smartphones with foldable screens in the future.
Здається, що тренд – це коло, що повторюється знову і знову. В майбутньому смартфон-розкладачка повернеться в наше життя у вигляді смартфонів зі складним екраном.
