Apple is experimenting with E Ink covers for foldable screens
Cupertino is reportedly testing an E Ink cover for its foldable tablet, according to analyst Ming-Chi Kuo. This news follows reports that Apple was testing foldable panels for future iPhones and iPads. These devices will be available in 2025.
Taiwan’s E Ink Group is one of the world’s largest makers of E Ink displays. They provide the screens for Amazon’s Kindle range of products.
Color e-ink panels are another product that Apple is rumored to be interested in. E-ink panels provide a number of advantages over typical OLED and LCD screens, including low power consumption and a moderate refresh rate.
We’re sure to see some fascinating innovations in the future, with firms like E Ink working on new forms of e ink displays like foldable and rollable panels. In the near future, the technology is projected to advance enough to be employed in cellphones.
What are your thoughts on an iPhone with a folding screen (or a rolling screen iPhone) with an E Ink cover?
