Apple reportedly begins testing foldable displays for iPhone, iPad

India Today  

For a long time, people have anticipated Apple would launch a foldable iPhone, but over the past few years, the time during which major Android brands such as Samsung, Xiaomi, Oppo, Vivo, and Motorola launched their foldable devices, the interest has grown. South Korean publication The Elec has said Apple is testing a new foldable OLED panel that will not feature the polariser layer in what could be an achievement in the foldable display technology. Samsung’s latest Galaxy Z Fold 3 and Eco2OLED display use the same polariser-less display technology, which means Apple will not be the first to remove the polariser layer from the foldable screen unit. Apple testing the display does not mean it is planning to launch the foldable iPhone or the foldable iPad anytime soon. If Apple is also planning to give users the same utility, the next foldable iPhone may also end up looking like the Samsung Galaxy Fold.
