Phones of the future revealed to be 5G and flexible

At this week’s Mobile World Congress in Barcelona, Spain, it became clear that 2019 is going to be the year of the foldable phone.

Several major phone makers showcased new flexible handpieces at the massive trade show that visits the city each year.

Hinges and special, bendable screens allow the devices to switch between smartphone and tablet.

Two telecommunications heavyweights – Huawei from China, and Samsung from South Korea – went head-to-head at the event, which is also known as MWC, this year, showing off their flexible offerings in pavilions directly across from each another.

Huawei’s foldable phone – the Mate X – was unveiled a few days before the MWC kicked off, and the phone has drawn a steady stream of visitors to the company’s pavilion.

The Mate X is an impressive feat of engineering. The hinge alone took three years to develop. The phone combines a foldable screen, artificial intelligence, and a new interface. It is also compatible with 5G networks.

Huawei believes the Mate X will be the phone to carry people into the 5G era. And it will be in direct competition with its flexible rival, the Galaxy Fold, by Samsung.

The Fold comes out this spring, though curiously no-one was allowed to get their hands on one at the MWC this week, where the device remained behind glass. Conversely, journalists and industry players were allowed to make an appointment to check out the Mate X.

“They heard we were launching, so they hurried to launch,” Yu Chengdong, CEO of Huawei consumer business group, told media at the tradeshow. “You can see this is a real phone. I’ve been using it for many days. The others? I don’t know, because they are not ready.”

Several other companies showcased foldable devices at MWC. Chinese electronics manufacturer Royole seemed to be having the most fun at the conference. The company slotted curved screens into top hats, T-shirts, and handbags, provoking a vision of the future where our accessories double as electronic billboards.

Royole allowed visitors to handle its foldable phone, which has been on the market for several months.

“We launched the world’s first commercial foldable smartphone last October,” said company co-founder Peng Wei. “This is the first commercially available foldable phone. We have already shipped orders.

“This flexible-screen technology enables innovation. Phones are no longer limited by a rigid screen. It’s a combination of phone and a tablet, so you can combine the large screen experience with the portability.”

Guangzhou-based electronics company TCL unveiled its DragonHinge technology at the MWC. The multi-gear hinge features in five new foldable devices from TCL, some of which will be available next year.

“We see the opportunity to really shape and bring something fresh to market,” Stefan Streit, TCL’s global marketing manager, said of the array of foldable devices the company will offer. “There’s so many different ways you can do them.”

Several other major phone makers have plans to make foldable phones, including LG, Xiaomi, and Lenovo. So far, iPhone manufacturer Apple has kept its cards close to its chest on the matter.

What is known is that the company has filed patents related to foldable technology, which suggests it is at least exploring the idea. In any case, if the technology is welcomed by consumers, Huawei and Samsung will have a significant headstart, and Apple will be in the uncommon position of playing catch-up.

5G has been another dominant theme at this year’s MWC and almost all of the vendors were plugging some aspect of 5G innovation.

Foldable smartphones might not be the future: experts

On Sunday, China’s tech giant Huawei officially unveiled Huawei Mate X, its first foldable smartphone. That came just five days after Galaxy Fold, the first foldable smartphone of Samsung. But foldables might not be the future of smartphones, comment two experts with China Daily’s Zhang Zhouxiang.

Yuan Xuanhua, a renowned industrial designer with 20 years’ experience in smartphone engineering.

Some media outlets have described foldable smartphones with so many sweet words as if they were a technological breakthrough. Unfortunately, they are not. The technology of foldable displays were invented as early as 20 years ago in a quite easy way — By replacing the glass that supports the display with foldable organic materials. Such displays can not only fold, but also curve.

Concerning the foldable screens of Huawei and Samsung, they have better displays with higher density rate and clearer, more stable display performance, but in essence they are still using the same technology. Therefore, foldable smartphones are more like a consumption-led innovation rather than a technology-driven breakthroughs. Although among the two, the Huawei Mate X is more practical than Galaxy Fold because the latter is folded inward to lower the risk of breaking apart while falling down, which is not so useful when breaking-glass insurance is popular.

More importantly, the “new” foldable smartphones are hardly of any practical use. Of course, one can easily double the display of the foldable smartphone by unfolding it so it has the size of an iPad, but that’s all. In plain words, the foldable display enables users to combine a tablet and a smartphone into one. There might be more uses in the future, but at least not for now.

When touchable displays for smartphones was invented, they did not get popularized until certain apps that suited touchable displays only, such as Fruit Ninjia, gained popularity. Now foldable smartphones faces a similar problem. Only when apps that suit the foldable smartphones are developed will the phones be truly accepted by the market.

Wu Shuyuan, a senior analyst at Sigmaintell, a company specialized in display analysis Samsung Fold and Huawei Mate X are both foldable smartphones, but they differ greatly in terms of design. The former is folded inward while the latter is folded outward, and each has its advantages and disadvantages.Samsung Fold looks not so perfect from the outside because the camera must not be covered during the folding, while the battery is also thicker. Huawei Mate X looks better, but its display is not protected as well as that of Samsung Fold and faces higher risk of breaking should the phone be dropped.

The two share one thing in common, namely a high price — Both are rather expensive. The Samsung Fold is priced at $1,980 while the Huawei Mate X is priced at 2,299 euros ($2,606). The high price will quite seriously limit the marketing of the two products and make them the luxuries of rich people only.

According to our analysis and market forecasts, in 2019, the number of foldable smartphones and tablets sold globally might reach 900,000, which might double in 2020. As a comparison, people globally bought 1.4 billion smartphones in 2018. In a word, unless its cost fall sharply, the market for foldable smartphones will be limited for the foreseeable future.

2020 Samsung S11 series mobile phone photo pre exposure

It is expected that Samsung S11 series mobile phones which will be launched in early 2020 will be exposed in Dongguan Yuanmei Precision Electronics Co., Ltd. in advance!!!

Recently, we learned from Dongguan Yuanmei precision engineering that Samsung

will have three new models in 2020,that are S11e / S11 / S11 +.

This time, the difference is that the new models are mainly curved and the camera is in the middle.

This also shows that all of Samsung’s flagship models in the future are inclined to curved surface.

Looking at previous cases, we find that s series is surrounded by arc edges, and the camera centering will become more and more mainstream, which also shows that the best angle for shooting is the middle.

All of these prove that Yuanmei precision is a fast and efficient factory, and also an enterprisewith advantages in the industry.

Recently, it has begun to accept orders for S11 series toughened glass film for mobile phones.

Differences between different mobile phone films

Compared to mobile phone case this has a certain thickness of the accessories products, the film with its thin enough and does not affect the phone feel to win the back. Compared to up to thousands of dollars of the phone itself, a few dollars tens of dollars of the film is slightly insignificant, and some love the phone to buy a person or even more than one, anyway, not expensive, scratched cut off and then posted new. But I do not know the film is also divided into a variety of its thin itself also contains no small universe.
From the current mobile phone protective film market to observe the ordinary common mobile phone protection film can be generally divided PET film, while the other is more high-end glass film. The market is better to sell the professional film, the film mainly to high permeability, frosted film-based.
The same type of mobile phone film dazzling, a wide range of market prices are also very different, ranging from a few dollars to hundreds of dollars. Is there really a big difference in protective foil? A few dollars of the film really and dozens of dollars of the film is the same? Next, take you slowly understand the phone protective film cheap and brand of film What is the difference. Currently on the market of mobile phone film mainly PET material and tempered glass material two.
PET material is currently the most common material of a film, PET is a polyester copolymer, with high hardness, high transparency, high temperature characteristics, adhesive surface can be with glue or static and other options, it Translucent good, after tearing can also be repeated paste, foil will not leave residual glue, and there will be no bubble problem. Now on the market with this material film with matte film and high-definition film.
HD film transmittance is relatively high, the display is better, but it is easy to stained fingerprints, and see very obvious. Frosted film is the opposite, in the sun will not reflect, the use of the process is not easy to see stained with fingerprints, but the light transmission loss is relatively large, compared to the HD film is inferior, if you are not a love clean People, or suggest you use matte it!
ARM material is the mobile phone film in the high Fu Shuai, Bai Fu Mei, generally divided into three layers, silica gel for the adsorption layer, PET for the middle layer, the outer layer for the special treatment layer, ARM film in fact its essence is still PET material film. It is more expensive than the price of PET, the price of 30 yuan to 60 yuan, of course, the effect and performance is much stronger, the reverse material using silicone layer, you can repeatedly rinse use, paste the phone screen after the bubble is also very easy to squeeze Out, wear scratch, light transmission in more than 95%, with non-reflective anti-peeping and so on.
Tempered glass material film, compared to the general plastic, can play a better role in defensive, and anti-fingerprint and oil effects should be better. In addition, because of its high hardness, even if the phone falls, but also to a certain extent, play a buffer role, to prevent the phone screen broken. Tempered glass foil is generally composed of four layers, the first layer is a special coating; the second layer is tempered glass; the third layer is explosion-proof film; the fourth layer is a silicone coating.
Tempered glass material after high-tech nano-technology after the tempered glass has a high strength is 9 times the ordinary glass, high-definition high permeability, good resistance to scratch and explosion, waterproof and anti-oil, anti-fingerprint and other effects significantly. Tempered glass protective film on the touch screen really play a protective role, this high-tech glass is Apple, Samsung and other high-end electronic equipment products preferred protective film.
