Apple Testing E Ink Electronic Paper Display for Foldable Device [Kuo]

Apple is reportedly testing E Ink's electronic paper display for a future foldable device, according to TF International Securities analyst Ming-Chi Kuo.

Apple is testing E Ink's Electronic Paper Display (EPD) for future foldable device's cover screen & tablet-like applications. The color EPD has the potential to become a mainstream solution for foldable devices' must-have cover/second screen thanks to its excellent power-saving.

Kuo also notes that 'E Ink' is a company, not a reference to Electronic Ink. Check out the company's promo video below.


Previous reports have claimed that Apple is actively testing a 9-inch foldable OLED panel, possibly for a foldable iPad or hybrid iPhone / iPad. In addition to that smaller device, Apple is also rumored to be working on a foldable MacBook/iPad hybrid that could have a 20-inch display.
