Samsung Galaxy Skin
Technology changes every two years. Just comparing the iPhone 4 that was
released the June of 2010 and the iPhone 3G from 2008; the difference
is so major that even seeing the 3G reminds someone of the ‘old days.’
Blackberry has been around since 1999, but their Curve series that began
in 2007 changed greatly within two years. RIM was getting rid of the
little white touch balls and replacing them with black touch pads. Then,
of course, there’s Android. The Captivate came out in 2010 which is
pretty much the first generation of Galaxy devices and not everyone
would recognize it if they saw it. In 2012, they came out with the
Galaxy S III, in which one out of every nine people buying a smart phone
chose the S III for its display size and updated software.
Think a flexible smartphone is just science fiction? You might have to
think again, thanks to Samsung. The Korean company recently unveiled
Galaxy Skin, an Android smartphone that can take on different shapes and
take on even hammer blows, set to begin production in 2013 Q2 with
murmurings of a release sometime thereafter.
This fantasy phone can be shaped into the form of a boombox or projector. Or perhaps you’d rather a stand-alone clock for a phone. With a bendable AMOLED display, the possibilities are endless.
After flexible-screen mobile phones roll out, the company plans to introduce the same technology for tablets and other devices.
Using the material ‘graphene’ for its display, this has been touted to be “the miracle material” which will make flexible displays a reality by the time the Skin hits the market.
This polyimide substrate will replace the glass. It is soft enough to be rollable and bendable without making any damage to image quality.
The display will have double the length when unfolded.
