Jakarta –
Apple start sending folding screen phone to his partner Foxconn to be tested. iPhone This folding screen is projected to be released in September 2022.
This rumor comes from the Economic Daily News citing sources from the supply chain. This trial process includes evaluating users of OLED or Micro-LED displays, because the choice of display used will affect the assembly method.
Quoted detikINET from MacRumors, Tuesday (11/17/2020) Apple also asked Foxconn to evaluate the component of the fold by opening the lid more than 100,000 times in the testing process.
The report notes that similar trials were carried out for ordinary laptops so that they can be opened and closed up to 20,000 or 30,000 times. Since foldable iPhones are likely to be opened and closed more often than normal laptops, it’s quite natural that Apple has stricter requirements.
This rumor provides no further information about the design used iPhone folding screen. But they noted that Samsung will provide the foldable display panel used, following earlier rumors that Apple has already purchased samples of the foldable display displays from the South Korean company.
Rumors about Apple developing a foldable iPhone have been circulating since 2016. The company from Cupertino, USA has also registered several patents for the folding screen iPhone design, including one that can join two separate devices with a hinge.
Gadget leaker Jon Prosser some time ago said Apple was developing a folding screen iPhone prototype that uses two separate screens connected by hinges, in contrast to the Samsung Galaxy Fold which has one folded display.
Prosser said iPhone This folding screen has rounded sides and is coated with stainless steel, much like the iPhone 11. This phone also has a ‘small forehead’ on the outer display to place the Face ID sensor.
Recent rumors say Apple will shut down the iPad Mini once the foldable iPhone is launched. The reason is that if the foldable screen iPhone screen is opened, it will be the same size as the iPad Mini.
