Samsung seems to be becoming a pioneer in mobile phones with a flexible screen. We already knew models like the Samsung Galaxy Fold, in which the screen could be folded and unfolded to suit the consumer. And now, as LetsGoDigital has published, it has filed a new patent in which we find a flexible screen that hides improvements in sound.
This is the new flexible screen from Samsung
hidden speakers
La new screen that the Korean brand has launched does not have much to do with that of the Galaxy Fold. This time it is not folded in half, but what we can do is move it slightly forward. And what is the meaning of this? Well, on the back of the screen we find some additional speakers, which will be hidden the rest of the time.
This could represent a significant improvement in the of the new mobiles Samsung. And it is necessary to take into account that one of the main problems that mobile phones usually have to offer better sound is that there is no space to house larger speakers. This new patent could have found a way to achieve this without having to increase the size of the phone.
Of course, this technology can also have some small problems. And it is that the fact of being flexible makes it probably less durable and easier to break. But, since at the moment it is only one license, it is possible that the brand is still working on it and we will not see it on a real smartphone until this aspect has been improved.
Is this screen coming soon?
At the moment it is not easy to answer the question of whether we will be able to see the flexible screen with hidden speakers on some Samsung phone. The Korean brand has not commented on the matter, nor has it made public its intentions to make any new launch in this regard. The only thing we know at the moment is that a patent has been published.
It is also important to note that patents sometimes stay in projects, who do not even become real models.
Therefore, it will be necessary to wait a little longer before knowing if we will see a Samsung mobile with the speakers hidden behind the screen or not, and if so, when will it be. What we can guarantee is that the necessary technology for this has already been developed. Now it's time to wait to see when it materializes in a real phone.
What do you think of this new idea from Samsung? We invite you to tell us about it in the comments section that you will find at the bottom of the page.
Of course, having a clearer and more powerful sound is a great advantage, but the duration of the mobile would be sacrificed, in addition to making the mobiles even more expensive than they already are. I wouldn't buy it.
