Ming-Chi Kuo: Apple tests e-ink screen for foldable devices and tablets

[Mobile China News]Well-known Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo said that Apple is testing electronic ink screens (EPD), which will be used in cover screens of foldable devices and tablet computers in the future. It is reported that due to its excellent power-saving performance, color e-ink screens may become a necessary cover or a mainstream solution for second screens in foldable devices.

It is not difficult to find that the audience for ink screen products is not very large, and many people’s understanding of this type of product is limited to e-readers. However, in the past year or two, the ink screen market seems to have new vitality. On the market, new ink screen products are constantly being launched. Previously, ink screens were generally used for e-books due to their unique light-emitting technology principles and “directly negligible” power consumption compared to color screens. However, with technological breakthroughs, the application range of ink screens has become wider. Apple's testing of e-ink screens also makes new products to be launched in the future more worth looking forward to.

Not long ago, Apple released its second quarter performance report for fiscal year 2022.

Among them, revenue in Greater China was US$18.343 billion, a year-on-year increase of 3.5%.

It is worth mentioning that early this morning, Apple pushed the official version of iOS 15.5. The version number is the same as the iOS 15.5 RC version. Mobile China has learned that iOS 15.5 optimizes the Apple Cash card and fixes some bugs for HomeKit.
