Apple Patent Hints At Foldable iPhone With Self-healing Screen - Lemmy.zip

Apple’s long-rumoured foldable iPhone could finally become a reality if a recently awarded patent is any indication. This patent hints at a revolutionary self-healing screen.

Look guys, Apple is innovating something that already exists again.
I know foldables have been in the market for a few years now, but do any have self healing screens?
Apparently Samsung Folds have some kind of healing (according to Reddit posts). But remember… Apple bad
My partner has been using a Samsung Fold for two years, the one that folds open into a small tablet. It looked nice at first but it hasn’t held up well. There’s this film on the screen that you’re not supposed to remove and it’s deteriorating fast. There are these little patches on the screen that look sort of like bubbles. Plus even from the start you could see the crease in the middle of the screen.

that was my case as well with the fold 2. I upgraded to the fold 5 since launch last year and can say the toughness on the main screen between the fold 2 and 5 is night and day. not a single scratch or bubble anywhere on the folding screen, held up very well.

I have a friend with the fold 3, and the main screen is basically destroyed, much like your partner.

it has to do with the way they are folded. the fold 5 uses a “tear drop” fold similar to the Motorola phones.

Jeez we are at the fold 5. This shouldn’t make me feel old but here I am, feeling old.
