One of the most common issues in the use of smartphones is screen damage. However, according to recent reports, this problem may soon be on the verge of being resolved on its own. According to a report shared by an analyst company, smartphone manufacturers are set to produce phones with “self-repairing” screens.
Self-repairing screens to be available in 2028!
CCS Insight, an analyst company, recently released a report containing technology predictions for 2024 and beyond. The most notable part of the report is the smartphones equipped with self-repairing screen technology.
One of the most common complaints among smartphone users is damage to their screens, which poses significant issues for both payment and usage. However, it seems that this problem will soon be resolved. According to the information in the report, smartphone manufacturers will produce smartphones with self-repairing screens within the next five years.
This means that we may see phones with self-repairing screens in the market by 2028. According to the report, these screens will use a nano coating that reacts to air when the surface of the screen is scratched.
Furthermore, smartphone manufacturers have been discussing such screens for the past few years. This indicates that these types of screens have evolved beyond being just a dream. For example, the South Korean company LG tested the effectiveness of self-repairing technology up to 2013.
Afterward, the company released a phone called the G Flex, which had a vertically curved screen and a self-repairing coating on the back cover. During those times, there wasn’t much information provided about how this technology worked. Similarly, in 2017, Motorola also filed a patent application for a self-healing technology when the screen is cracked.
