One of the most ridiculous jobs in the world of mobile phones is that screens. In less than a decade we've moved away from small 3-inch-thick diagonal screens so that we can have almost two packets. Not only in size, but in color, light, contrast, resolution, refreshment rate.
Fashion technology on the screens is OLED and AMOLED technology, and although the future is determined by MicroLED, there are other technologies to look at. Like electric ink. And far from dead, this technology looks more alive than ever.
Electronic color ink is up and coming: this year's models and mobile
Electronic color ink screens are finally real.
Though I have been a screen lover with the quality of the Galaxy Note 10+ or the distribution of the Asus ROG Phone 2, I can't help but love the electronic ink. This technology is usually made for e-book readers, and although in some aspects it is not standard, it does have some benefits.
Electric ink screens are visible. This means they do not need to be illuminated back, but instead rely on the available light, so that we can read them directly from the sun. The absence of backlight means that the use of these panels is reduced, and that we are not too tired to see, which is why its most commonly used case is readable.
Yotaphone 2: one of the mobiles I am most excited to thank is its electronic ink.
This technology is also used in cell phones, which are used as a secondary display. Products such as Yotaphone are pioneering, and even Honeyense has decided to continue his legacy. Unless you are only launching a cellphone with this technology, the Chinese manufacturer will be the best bet.
Electronic ink screens have been around for years, but they're starting to happen eventually. In addition to these large screens, it looks like we will see them again on another mobile device.
Hisense developed in partnership with E-Ink the first smartphone with electronic color ink, for mobile for sale in the middle of the year.
Despite the fact that a mobile phone on paper seems very limited (in the end, the limits of this technology make it difficult to play or watch videos on mobile), it seems to be a unique solution for mobile users to navigate, read and learn to communicate, with screens with excellent visibility in the sun and With very limited use it can stretch the battery for several days.
