Samsung YOUM Flexible Display 2013
Samsung is currently the world’s number one smartphone company in terms of number of devices sold. And, it is on its way to become the number one tech company if it unveils this new technology called YOUM.
The South Korean Company, Samsung has been improvising on this new flexible technology over the past couple of years. We got to look at this new flexible display screen technology back in 2011 and since than Samsung has greatly improved.
YOUM made its first formal appearance in CES 2013 when Samsung unveiled the first prototypes featuring these bendable screens. One of these prototypes showed a paper thin screen which an executive of Samsung bent multiple times to “wow” the audience. It was followed by another prototype which was bent on the sides to reveal messages without even opening the cover.
You can check out the video regarding Samsung’s YOUM flexible display technology revealed at CES 2013 below.
Isn’t that just amazing?
Now you would be wondering that this is just a concept and we won’t these flexible displays for another year or two. Well folks to get your adrenaline levels up, Samsung might just unveil this YOUM technology in the up coming Samsung Galaxy S4! That is the next generation smartphone from Samsung which will be released within a couple of months! But again, we can’t be sure until confirmed by the Korean company itself.
These flexible displays feature OLED (Organic Light Emitting Diode), which not only gives a more sharp image compared to LED but also helps in improving the battery life of the device.
Although there is no confirmed word on the release of such flexible display products but there is a high chance they will be launched in 2013.

There is a difference between glass that simply bends the light to create an illusion and bending the source, although you may be right.
Wondering how whatever is shown on the screen is not distorted
