Samsung Confirms 5.5-inch Flexible Smartphone Screen

[Cons29]

atleast someone (samsung) is doing some real innovations, other brands are doing the same i think, unlike some fruit i heard about.

maybe they will claim this and call iBend

267 pixel per what? Inch? Centimeter? Panel? Day?

Sigh. I dislike incompetent technical specifications.

If this was Apple, they'd try to patent it.

An idea that sounds good in theory but may not work in reality. At least it worth a shot and perhaps Samsung with their uber display manufacturing capability can come up with a niche for flexible screens.

I believe Apple, even though not having working tech, is in the process of patenting it.
Really, not kidding.

But could you imagine doing this with a 70" screen?
How much you want to bet some idiot would sue because his or hers stopped working because they tried to nail it or thumbtack it to the wall?

What, no glass to shatter on the ground forcing consumers to buy new phones twice a year?

I wonder if this means that Apples smartwatch is comming. After all they could make an obvious design with this and sue everyone else for copying.
