Samsung is working on a new way to stick OLED screens on phones. The technique allows screens to be attached more accurately to the edges and screen edges become smaller . At the moment the project is still in a test phase.
Borderless OLED screens
Screen bezels have gotten a lot smaller over the years and with the Galaxy S22 series, the top and bottom bezels also became as small as the bezels on the sides for the first time. Nevertheless, a new technique for OLED screens can ensure that screen edges virtually disappear.
According to sources from the South Korean The Elec Samsung is testing another way to fix OLED screens on phones. Instead of several layers of transparent tape being placed on the phone, Samsung now wants to spray the fastener. It is a method reminiscent of printer inkjet technology and is called ‘Optically Clear Resin’ (OCR).
Lower price, finer edges
The main advantage is that this mounting method is cheaper and also works faster at the factory, which can lower the price of OLED phones. But it is also interesting that Samsung can also work more accurately with this. The edges around the screen and the screen notch of the selfie camera can become smaller.
At the moment, the project is still in a test phase and Samsung is said to be in consultation with various suppliers to be able to apply the OCR technique as economically as possible. It is not yet known when we as consumers will see the result of this.
