Within the foldable smartphones it was the Chinese brand Royole to beat everyone on time, being the first to propose a product ready for the market. Royole FlexPai , which we had previewed live at CES 2019 in Las Vegas.

The Chinese company recently presented the second version of its flexible folding smartphone, FlexPai 2, which corrected all the weaknesses of the first model and which with the Cicada Wing flexible OLED display 7.8 inch promises to withstand up to 200. 000 bending cycles.

Flexible OLEDs, a market that has taken the right ‘turn’

The Chinese manufacturer strongly believes in the flexible OLED panel sector and has invested well 16 billion Yuan (equal to just over two billion of Euro ) for the creation of a new production line of flexible OLED panels in Qingdao, China. At the moment, as OLED-info reports, no further information on line start times and capacity is available yet, but this is an interesting sign that shows how Chinese manufacturers believe strongly in the flexible and foldable panel segment.

In this regard, we also refer you to the news recently published on TCL’s most recent roll-up OLED screen prototype.
