Samsung has confirmed that it will introduce its first smartphone with a curved display this year. According to speculation, it could even be about Galaxy Note 4, which is indicated by several facts. KDB Daewoo analyst confirmed that Samsung will eventually produce several million units of devices with such a display. In addition, the end of the year is the time when Samsung presents phones Galaxy Notes. At the same time, it is possible that the phone will have a three-sided display, as we could see at CES 2013.
According to information, curved displays are the last step before flexible displays enter production. They should start production already in 2015, and it is possible that already Galaxy The Note 5 will be a bendable phone. However, if Samsung wants to make a flexible phone by then, it has quite a challenge ahead of it. Although Samsung is showing great progress in the field of flexible displays, it still has problems with the production of flexible batteries. A certain source admitted that Samsung is significantly behind the development of flexible batteries, which can affect their durability.
Curved displays are actually the last step before Samsung is able to produce fully bendable displays. As early as next year, we could see displays that can be completely bent or folded. In addition, folding displays are a technology that Samsung introduced to us some time ago. An older concept from Samsung showed that a device with such a display would actually be a tablet and a smartphone in one. According to analyst John Seo of Shinhan Investment, it is possible that Samsung will ship 20 to 30 million smartphones with foldable displays next year.
