The prototype shows a screen that transforms from a 13-inch tablet to a 17-inch monitor. “We are announcing the world’s first 17-inch slide-out PC display,” Choi explained and added, “This device will meet the needs of a big screen and portability at the same time.
With the choice of “slide-in” technology, Samsung Display seems to have decided not to work on folding technology for PCs anymore for now. At the moment, this invention is just a concept and there are no indications from the companies for when we might see it become a reality.
Intel has been experimenting with new PC formats for years and was preparing to develop a double folding screen until Microsoft canceled its plans to put Windows 10X on this type of device. The technology of the device includes a flexible display and a sliding mechanism.
