Are you excited for flexible displays? What are the applications

Right now ?
Bendy phones.
In the future ?
Maybe some kinda wearable gimmick.

Sadly they're still no levitating before reader's eyes transparent monitors, like in sci-fi movies. Sigh.

how do you solve the battery problem in mobile devices with flexible displays? batteries don't bend

>What are the applications of this stuff?

Phones that fold out into tablets.
"Book"-design phones that can be opened up into a larger screen.

My only issue with this is that your phone then becomes twice as thick when folded.

...So it must now do battle with my wallet for the space of my right front pocket.

Won't need that when everyone has their own personal AI assistant.

Probably VR helmets will be the first to benefit from them. would make it easier to simulate peripheral vision.

why? so they can crinkle and annoy me?

Can it bend more than one axle

Advertising, signalling. Basically information displays integrated into objects and architecture. However I don't see them used in mobile devices or clothes yet because those need a ton of other components right behind the screen.

Just have some little cylinder that holds all of the important computing hardware and batteries that the flexible display rolls up inside of when not in use. This of course would be impractical for phones but amazing for tablets. Imagine carrying a 60 inch TV in a package the size of a camping chair bag.
