Innovation in technology does not follow a linear trajectory. Every so often, technology surprises us by including new features in our mobiles that represent a fairly large leap compared to what we knew so far. Get to know at Techy2tech for more updates.
This applies precisely to equipment that we use daily such as smartphones. Over the years, new phones have had better cameras, higher screen resolution, faster processors, and, now, with flexible screens, the ability to increase the size of your smartphone screen depending on use.
The first to arrive were the folding mobiles, which fold in half thus allowing to have a standard-size screen in a much smaller format ( the flip-type ) or a standard-size screen that, when opened, gains in size until it almost becomes a tablet (the foldable type ).
And what will be next, you ask? Grab a seat because we’ll tell you all about the new technology: the displays rollable or roller.
You can already find this technology on a television
In fact, roll-up displays have been around for a while: LG has launched the LG Signature OLED TV 65R9, a display with a flexible OLED panel, which folds out to the size of a normal 65-inch TV but can also be worn at a medium height to display content that does not require a full screen or hide completely to look like a soundbar.
A New Trend: the Roll-Up Mobile
Some time ago we talked to you about the new mobile formats, and today here at https://www.techy2tech.com we show you how manufacturers want to continue to differentiate themselves by innovating in the screen format. We have the famous flip and foldable and others even more innovative with double rotating screens, but until today there was none with the ability to unroll to become a tablet. Can you imagine all the situations in which it would be useful to have this option?
That is what the new mobiles that some companies are developing a promise, and that they have recently presented to us at CES 2021.
How would this type of device work? Just like normal smartphones do, but with a big change: with the press of a button or a gesture you can make your phone expand to the size of a tablet.
So far three technology firms have confirmed that they are working on these types of concepts: LG, Oppo, and TCL.
