Samsung S10 could have self healing screen


Always scratch your smartphone? Samsung has designed a revolutionary display that can be repaired by itself.

The so-called "self-healing" screen will fix the scratches yourself, making your device look as good as new.

The technology is reflected in the Samsung patent granted by the World Intellectual Property Organization.

In this patent, Samsung describes how customers often suffer from minor screen scratches and fingerprint smudges.

The solution is to create a self-healing layer of protection on the smartphone screen and eliminate those annoying finger oils.

Typically, smartphone screens are covered with tempered glass.

Samsung's own phone is equipped with the durable Gorilla Glass, made by a company called Corning.

Its design is very strict, but it is not a comprehensive solution.

Even Samsung admits that this type of glass is “easy to break or scratch”.

“There is a need for a protective material with improved performance that can be applied to electronic devices,” Samsung explained in its patent application.

Samsung described its conceptual solution - a film that lives on a smartphone screen and can even be applied to a foldable phone.

“This film is self-healing after scratching and has excellent flexibility, so it can be applied to flexible devices, etc.,” Samsung wrote.

The “Flexible Device” bit is important because Samsung plans to release its own foldable smartphone in early 2019.

This patent explains that the film will be made from "polyrotaxane, polyhedral silsesquioxane and fluorinated (meth)acrylic acid".

Unfortunately, it does not specify how these compounds cure the screen.

In other words, the self-healing surface is not new - we even see them on smartphones.

The LG G Flex and G Flex 2 smartphones were launched in 2013 and 2015, and both products feature self-healing rear headphones.

LG remained silent on the details behind the technology, but hinted that it was caused by the built-in hydrogen atoms on the back of the phone.

When speaking to TechnoBuffalo in 2015, it said that hydrogen atoms tend to be equally aligned.

Therefore, when scratches are generated, these atoms push each other back to the origin, effectively curing the slight scratches.

Sadly, the technology has not been a major cut. Samsung's self-healing screens probably won't fix major scratches.

As for rejecting fingerprint smudges, Samsung hopes to match its protective film with the oleophobic layer.

This is a special material that rejects oil - the same way that hydrophobic materials repel water.

This means that the finger oil does not stick to the smartphone glasses, making the screen look cleaner.

Is foldable smartphones going to be the future

Samsung is making a giant phone that folds in half and sells for $1,770. The Galaxy F is said to be released in March next year, and the company plans to sell one million of them in 2019. The phone is basically a tablet that can be folded into a mobile phone, which is said to be able to open, as "snap" as the previous flip phone. but why? Cable TV's Brian Barrett traces the history of collapsible smartphone technology in a weekend report, saying: "These scenes are tempting: you can keep your smartphone in single-screen mode on the way to the subway. Check in on Twitter and then expand it. Once you get on the train and read the New York Times, you can see the size of the tablet. This attraction is very obvious and people wonder why it took so long." Is that kind of scene really tempting? Is the attraction obvious enough? Maybe I missed something here, but it seems that at best it is just a possible thing, I won't scream. If I see a mobile phone folded in...
