Samsung develops S-shaped foldable 7.2 inch display and slidable display that can be expanded to the left and right

Samsung Display announced the next generation of OLED (organic EL) displays such as "S Foldable", "17 inch Foldable" and "Slidable".

Both were announced for the event "Display Week 2021" of the International Society for Display (SID), and were released as next-generation technologies.

S folder bull

The display named "S Foldable" is a product that can be folded twice like an S character.

When unfolded, the maximum size is 7.2 inches, and it is expected to be used in a tablet-like size.

In the video released at the same time, a scene is introduced in which it is placed on a stand in the shape of a mountain, spread out and used for multitasking, or folded compactly and put in a pocket when moving.

17 inch foldable

A display with an aspect ratio of 4: 3 and a 17-inch aspect ratio when expanded is also introduced. The video introduces that it can be used like a laptop computer by expanding it at an angle.

In addition, a UPC (under panel camera) that is equipped with an in-camera under the display panel to increase the transmittance of the panel that covers the camera and allows the camera to be used while seemingly nothing at first glance is also introduced.

Slidable

The slidable display, which can be expanded to the left and right, is also called a rollable display by other companies.

We usually propose how to use it as a smartphone size and widen it to a large screen.

Both are next-generation products whose development has been announced for installation in smartphones and tablets.
