According to an insider from the Weibo platform, which has a good reputation on Apple news, the company develops a hinge using liquid metal technology.

< p > Interestingly, similar information is already with & Rsquo; Analytik Min-Cuo previously hinted that Apple would probably use a liquid metal for a future hinge of the future iPhone fold (if it is an official name).

< P > The use of liquid metal has several advantages, the main of which is rigidity. According to rumors, this & ldquo; amorphous alloy & rdquo; or & ldquo; metal glass & Rdquo; 2.5 times stronger than titanium, which makes it the ideal solution for a hinge.

< P > The structure of amorphous particles is resistant to bending, deformation and pressure, improving the durability of the hinge and the device as a whole. In addition, the hinge design can help reduce or completely eliminate the fold on the display.

< P > Flexible display requires reliable support so that the panel can withstand the pressing of the fingers, flexion, etc. Of course, flexible OLED technology also needs improvement, and Apple is reported to cooperate with equipment suppliers to eliminate the fold on the screen.
