Samsung Electronics, the world’s best-selling smartphone maker, is planning to launch handsets with curved displays.
The new devices will have plastic light-emitting diode (OLED) panels, the company said at a Galaxy Note 3 launch event in Seoul.
“We plan to introduce a smartphone with a curved display in South
Korea in October,” said DJ Lee, Samsung’s head of strategic marketing
for mobile. But he revealed no further details.
Digital display technology is progressing towards curved, bendy and
foldable screens. Curved displays already feature in large-screen TVs,
such as those produced by Samsung and its Korean rival, LG Electronics.
In January, Samsung exhibited prototype products with bendy and
extendable screens, but doubts remain as to how such technology can be
mass-produced cheaply and reliably.
