Huawei has announced a new folding screen patent. Will you consider buying a folding screen mobile phone?

Would not consider it. As one of the latest display technologies, folding screens have not yet truly become popular and mature, and have many shortcomings. For example, there are issues with the lifespan of the folding screen itself, such as program adaptation issues. So I wouldn't consider buying it. ?

For the folding screen mobile phones currently on the market, the hinge design can be mainly divided into two types: gear type and watch chain type. Among them, the gear-type hinge has a precise structure and can be hidden inside the fuselage. It has a strong integrated appearance and can ensure that the angles of both ends are synchronized when the mobile phone is opened and closed. It is indeed a better design, but its disadvantages are high cost, difficulty in maintenance, and failure once the phone is opened and closed. It will be more easily damaged if dust enters it. The watch chain-type body folding mechanism is technically simple, and it is relatively less troublesome to repair if it breaks. However, its outstanding shortcomings are that it has a greater impact on the appearance and feel, and it is difficult to position when folded. Moreover, once the design of the "bracelet" is not handled properly, the entire device will appear extremely abrupt and ugly, and the sense of technology will be greatly reduced.

Folding screen devices, especially those that focus on large screens, high efficiency, office and audio-visual experience, should not sacrifice the resolution and color perception of the screen itself for the sake of "folding". You know, first of all, from the perspective of consumer experience, folding screens can be said to be one of the most expensive mobile device display technologies currently. For consumers who have purchased a folding screen model, they naturally have every reason to expect that it should provide a better display effect than the traditional straight screen. If you spend more money and buy a mobile phone with a foldable screen, but the display effect is not as good as traditional products with a much lower price, wouldn't it be money wasted? Secondly, as we said before, for most folding screen smartphones, the multi-tasking experience brought by the unfolded large screen is currently the biggest advantage that distinguishes them from traditional candy bar phones. But if you want to split the screen and better display the windowed APP in multi-tasking mode, the high resolution of the folding screen itself is essential.

Improving the resolution, brightness, and color gamut of the folding screen, which are related to the basic display effect, may be one of the important improvements in the future of large-screen folding screen mobile phones. This also means that if you are very concerned about the "viewing" experience of folding screens, then there may be very few devices to choose from at this point, or you can choose to wait and wait for subsequent products. This shortcoming has been fixed. ?

But as we pointed out in the article, as the first batch of related products in the entire market, current folding screen mobile phones generally still have some shortcomings. As the current hot spot in the industry and the representative of the most expensive and flagship mobile phone form, it is not difficult to imagine that the next generation of folding screen mobile phones will make key improvements in these aspects. In this way, this may mean that some of the differences in current folding screen designs we talked about today will be eliminated, and it also means that design differences such as whether to be efficient or simply beautiful, may not be the same. will be further expanded. ?

But it also means that after becoming more perfect, stronger, and more refined, the next generation of folding screen mobile phones will be more expensive than now. ?
