Samsung's 'Unbreakable' OLED Display Gets Certified
Samsung Display, a subsidiary of Samsung Electronics, just introduced a flexible OLED panel that has a transparent plastic cover already attached, emulating the properties of glass but retaining the screen's innate flexibility. The screen is so durability that it's been certified by UL (formerly known as Underwriters Laboratories). The Verge reports: Samsung, describing the new panel as unbreakable, reports that it has withstood UL's military-standards tests of 26 successive drops from a height of 1.2 meters (close to 4 feet) as well as extreme temperatures as high as 71 degrees Celsius (159.8 degrees Fahrenheit) and as low as -32 degrees Celsius (-25.6 degrees Fahrenheit). The OLED display "continued to function normally with no damage to its front, sides, or edges," we're told, and Samsung even went further by performing a successful drop test from 1.8 meters (6 feet).Read more of this story at Slashdot.
