Making all smartphones thinner and lighter is a big challenge for many smartphone manufacturers. Here’s how they can archive this with three new technologies.
Graphene Batteries
If you don’t know what graphene is, it’s made from one layer of carbon atoms in a specific hexagonal lattice arrangement. It has remarkable conductivity, flexibility and high strength. If a phone use this material for the battery, it can gain many benefits. Firstly, they offer higher energy density.
Moreover, it charge faster and has a longer life span. Other companies like Xiaomi, Oppo and Samsung have been researching this new material for their handsets. If we make battery with graphene, it can generate high power in a smaller form. As a result, most phones can now carry a thinner battery box, whoch make it a lot lighter.
Rollable Displays
Up until now, we have seen many brands trying to add the rollable display to their smartphones. This new design can help keep the device’s weight while maintaining the larger display size. Moreover, they use the organic light-emitting diode (OLED) to deliver vivid colors without heavy power consumption.
Under-Display Cameras Setup
With the rise of thin and bezel-less display for smartphone, under-display features have become a popular design for smartphone company. After ditching the ugly notch, users can now have a full viewing experience. Besides, there are less extra needed space, which makes the phone become thinner and seems more compact. Companies like ZTE or Xiaomi have also chosen to add the under-display camera for their flagships.
