Apple successfully obtains patent for roll-up iPhone, looking ahead to future designs

According to news on May 19, Apple recently obtained an eye-catching technology patent, which may bring a new design to future iPhones. According to a list published by the United States Trademark and Patent Office (USPTO), Apple successfully applied for a patent called "Sliding Expandable Display."

Future iPhones may use roll-type expandable displays, and this patent illustrates this exciting concept. According to the patent description, the device can be comparable in size to the current iPhone when fully unfolded, and when not in use, the screen can be shortened to half the size of the current iPhone and rolled into the interior of the device.

Apple’s patent application documents indicate that they plan to use flexible screen technology, such as organic light-emitting diodes, to achieve this design. The screen size can be expanded to twice the size of the current iPhone when unfolded as needed. Users can simply unfold the screen to get a larger display area for a better viewing experience.

It’s unclear whether Apple has plans to commercialize and bring this scroll-style iPhone patent to market, despite the excitement surrounding the patent. The patent shows Apple's continued investment in new technology and innovation, but we will need to wait for further news to understand whether this concept will become part of future iPhones.

From the beginning to the end, Apple has been committed to bringing innovative product designs to users, among which the iPhone series has always been favored by consumers around the world. If commercialized successfully, scroll-style iPhone technology will provide users with more choices and a more attractive mobile phone experience. We will continue to pay attention to Apple’s latest developments and look forward to witnessing the launch of this innovative technology as soon as possible.
