I still remember that LG once showed a slideable reel OLED phone, but since LG withdrew from the mobile phone industry, there has been no progress in the slideable OLED device for the time being. However, it is obvious that this technology will definitely be used on various OLED display devices in the future. Recently, Samsung showed its own sliding OLED display, which is also the world's first sliding display for PC. It can convert in two forms: 13-inch and 17-inch. One of the major features of
OLED material is its bendability, so this has also led to many new OLED technologies, such as curling, folding, stretching and sliding. Some of these concepts have been commercialized in consumer products, such as foldable screen mobile phones, but for some other features, manufacturers are only launching some prototype products and are not mass-produced. Samsung's sliding OLED display is obviously the prototype product, but it shows us a possibility of future display development.
Samsung is the product displayed at the Intel Innovation Forum event. It is obvious that this is also a display designed for PC products, so its size is much larger than some scroll display devices in the past. This OLED monitor can be manually switched from a 13-inch display to a 17-inch display. According to Samsung, this monitor will support personal computer monitor or tablet computers. And the name of this technology seems to be similar. Samsung will name its sliding OLED technology "Slidable Flex", which sounds very similar to some LG's products.
Samsung believes that this is the future development trend of PC, because users sometimes need small screens, and sometimes larger screens, so this product can meet the needs of users in different environments. It seems that this statement is more like the demand of tablet computers. After all, on PC monitors, we generally don’t pay attention to whether the monitor can become larger and smaller, unless everyone likes to use PC monitors to watch , Douyin, ?
This is not the first major innovation made by Samsung in the OLED form. In fact, Samsung has shown OLED panels that can be folded multiple times before, such as the Flex S series. Of course, it is a product used on mobile phones, unlike this time that it is a product used for PC systems. Of course, since it was displayed at Intel's event, Intel also gave face, indicating that this technology can change the application of PC in the future. However, Samsung itself did not announce its mass production plan, and did not indicate when this product will be launched, so we can only look forward to it now.
From the current point of view, everyone seems to hope to create some new tricks on display devices. LG's bendable OLED TV has been launched, and Samsung's innovation on the OLED panel continues. Everyone is trying their best to create some gimmicks to attract attention. Of course, these gimmicks can be converted into high-priced products in the short term, which is also a way for manufacturers to increase their revenue. I don’t know whether these OLED devices of different shapes are easy to use, but I’m sure they are all very expensive!
