Samsung, LG May Launch Full-Screen Smartphones With Sound Emitting Displays Next Year
Jun. 13, 2018Anew reportout of South Korea claims that both Samsung and LG are looking to bring sound-emitting OLED displays to their flagship phones next year. The development comes just days after another report claimed that theGalaxy S10will come with a piezoelectric speaker that will ditch the traditional speaker for good.
As for the new report, it further states that Samsung’s sound-emitting panel will measure 6.22-inches diagonally, but there’s no word on how big LG’s display will be. However, the fact that they are both reportedly incorporating the new technology in their next-gen flagships could very well pave the way for moretruefull-screen smartphones like theall-new Vivo NEX.
Unlike Samsung, LG’s Crystal Sound line of OLED TVs already come with the new technology. The company is now said to be prepping to bring the feature to its next-gen flagship smartphone(s), although, it isn’t immediately clear whether the G-series will get it first or the V-series.
Another Chinese vendor, Vivo, has now brought back the concept of a speaker-less full-screen smartphone with itsNEX line of futuristic handsetsthat were launched this week with what Vivo calls the Screen SoundCasting technology that ditches the earpiece in favor of a micro-vibration unit.
