As per a few recent leaks it has become apparent that Apple would be launching its foldable device next year. In a recent update, it has been alleged that Apple has chose choosing Samsung Display as its proprietary supplier for foldable devices OLED panels. Since Apple has been one of the last brands to hitch the wagon to their foldable phone bandwagon, the brand has showcased profound plans to minimize the appearance of the crease.
Apple has been rather ardent about its display needs, and a recent report has suggested that only Samsung has been able to meet the exact needs that Apple has for the new Foldable. Before this a few other competitors were also being considered for the role, LG Display, China’s BOE were a few names that were allegedly in the race against Samsung.
Apple’s New Innovations
As evident, Apple is not working on another run of the mill foldable, rather they seek to develop a new foldable that has minimized creases. For doing so, it has been conducting expansive research and analysis to channel out new ways through which the crease can be minimized.
The rumors have purported that Apple itself, has plans to walk beyond the current scenario of the tech world. It seeks to innovate further and bring in a new hinge design and new displays that would over time reduce the chances of creases.
A few days back, a new leak had revealed that Apple has plans to use Liquid Metal and Die cast parts to ensure that the Hinge has minimal clearances reducing the chance of dust and lint accumulation increasing the durability. Beyond that there have been rumor’s that Apple has been seeking a new type of screen material that would further reduce the chances of creases in the screen.
Bigger Battery And Durability
Apple allegedly has expansive plans to use the new foldable form factor not only for their phones but for future iPads as well. Hence there have been rumors as to how the brand has been planning on long term goals. These include, expansion of the battery capacity of the phone and beyond that increase the overall durability of the phone. A better battery, with a creaseless screen that does not succumb to mechanical fatigue would surely give the brand an advantage against its users in the future.
A recent revelation from tech leaker YEUX1122 has revealed that Apple would be using an improved display IC. This would enable the engineers to equip the phone with thinner panel assemblies and at the same time reduce the power consumption and heat output.
It’s possible that the Apple foldable might be priced above the other phones in the category, but its durability and battery life would become the primary reasons why users would be ready to pay for it.
