Bendable Television Screens

Clean the Sky - Positive Eco Trends & Breakthroughs

The Samsung U9000 SeriesCurved UHD Debut at CES 2014 is Bold

— January 7, 2014 — Tech
Forget flat screen TVs; the new Samsung U9000 SeriesCurved UHD will show you that bendy is the way of the future. Remember when a true sign of status was a flat screen and a DVD player? Well one day, we are all going to laugh at whoever doesn’t have a curved view of their favorite show, the same way we mock our parents when they talk about not having color TV.

Launched at the Consumer Electronics Show 2014, this Samsung U9000 SeriesCurved UHD shows a clearer and more surrounding image. You can get one in 78-inch, 65-inch, 55-inch or even if you want to get really wild 105-inch. The resolution is 4K and the bend gives the picture more depth, making it look almost 3D.
Trend Themes
1. Curved Screen Displays - The trend towards curved screen displays in electronics will continue as consumers demand more immersive viewing experiences.
2. Flexible Screens - The growth in flexible screen technology opens up opportunities for new form factors and designs for consumer electronics and wearables.
3. 4K Resolution Displays - The demand for higher resolution displays, such as 4K, will continue to drive innovation in the television and monitor industries.
Industry Implications
1. Consumer Electronics - Companies in the consumer electronics industry can explore and invest in developing new products and technology that feature curved, flexible and higher resolution displays, to stay ahead of the competition.
2. Entertainment - As the use of curved screen and 4K resolution displays become more common, the entertainment industry can create new and exciting content that takes advantage of these technologies, providing viewers with more immersive experiences.
3. Wearable Technology - As flexible screen technology improves, the wearable technology industry can develop new products and designs that incorporate bendable screens, making wearables more comfortable and adaptable to different form factors.
