These weird displays are getting out of hand

Oh dude this could be great for foldables!

With the density being at 100dpi, it might take a while still.

True. Still, worth it to see this develop.

Would it? I want to unfold/unroll device and get more content, not the same content stretched

[–] [email protected] 1 points 11 hours ago

It would still unfold or unroll, you'd just have a better experience with it. Because it's flexible, creases would be managed better, thus making existing and future form factors better.

If you put it in the crease of a foldable, it's stretched when stowed, and normal in use.

Now they just need to make a durable foldable display

I have a feeling that this would be the first step in that direction.
