Ever since Samsung released the Samsung Galaxy Round smartphone, we’ve been wondering when Samsung would utilize its flexible display technology in other devices. While the Samsung Galaxy Round itself was a bit of a failure and never quite matched up to its main competitor, the LG G Flex, there are still plenty of ways a flexible display could be used and looks like Samsung is gearing up to do just that.
According to Ledwn, Samsung is planning to build a new factory to increase their output of flexible OLED displays.While the development of the site is expected to take 6 or 7 months to complete and is expected to be able to move into full production in early 2015. The flexible displays are said to be used in wearables and smartphones so it’s entirely possible that we will see flexible screens on the Samsung Galaxy S6 or Galaxy Note 5 come 2015. The development of this factory also supports Samsung’s other businesses with its curved TV production increasing as well. It will be interesting to see whether flexible displays really play a big part in the future of smartphones or not since nobody has attempted another after Samsung and LG.
What do you think about Samsung increasing production of flexible displays? Do you think there is a future in smartphones with flexible, curved displays? Let us know your opinion down below.
