Patent pending: Apple could skip foldables and advance directly to a rollable iPhone - Lemmy.world

As other leading smartphone makers are perfecting devices with vertically or horizontally folding screens, recently published patent information suggests Cupertino might take a different route. A patent for “electronic devices with rollable displays” filed last October and published on July 13 references a device with a display that could be moved between an unrolled state where it is planar and a rolled state for storage.

LG made a rollable one and it looks great, thinner than a folding one and maybe no creases.
