Yesterday took place one of the most anticipated keynotes of the CES, that of the firm Samsung, from which innovative products with great influence in different technological fields are always expected. Well, two notable novelties came out of the event. On the one hand, its new processor 5 Exynos Octa 8-core, which is already targeting the market, and it is very likely that it will appear in the Galaxy S IV, and, on the other, Youm a flexible screen prototype, still far from being commercialized.
We already have the odd video of the new screens OLED flexible that Samsung presented yesterday at CES. We had time receiving data about this kind of technology, but we finally got to see it at work. Certainly, it is impressive to see something so fine playing a movie with such fluidity and image quality. However, despite being covered in plastic, these screens seem, at the moment, to be extremely fragile. You just have to see the way the commercial Samsung he takes it, very carefully, and it is that something of an efficient flexibility should show more malleability, but in short, let's remember that it is a prototype.
The question is to know what real use is going to have this type of technology. Thus exposed at a technology fair, it looks beautiful and is very interesting to see, but will it reach our pockets? The purely technical part seems to be on the right track, there is a lot of difference with respect to the first electronic paper tablets that we also showed you yesterday, for example. However, now Samsung you must work on the hardest part: the practical part. It remains to be seen if this type of screen can provide us with something valuable as users. Thus, intuitively, it looks like the portability and the economy of space, in general, may be its great asset, but it remains to be seen.
As we say, Samsung yesterday starred in one of the most anticipated keynotes at CES and in it we could not only see the presentation of these screens Flexible OLED, the arrival of a new processor was also announced Exynos 5 eight-core, which could make its first appearance in the Samsung Galaxy S IV. In addition, the Koreans have pending the presentation of a Galaxy Note 7, which already has the FCC certifications and we expected to have seen it presented these days. It would also be a great device in which to release the new chip.
If you think it is going to slam it on the ground or hit the lighter ... sometimes you seem more stupid than you are. From what you see you have not seen many videos of flexible samsung screens, including the one that they hit with a hammer.
