- Samsung and LG are reportedly working on piezoelectric speaker technology for a future Galaxy Z Flip series phone.
- This technology would see sound being transmitted via the phone’s cover display.
- The tech would allow people to take calls on folded Galaxy Z Flip phones without using the loudspeaker.
One downside to using the Samsung Galaxy Z Flip 6 and previous Galaxy Z Flip phones is that you can only take calls with the loudspeaker when the device is folded. However, it looks like Samsung and LG are working on a solution.
The Korean-language Sisa Journal reports that Samsung Display and LG Display are working on OLED screens that emit sound by vibrating the screen. The two companies are apparently working to integrate this so-called piezoelectric speaker technology into future foldable phones.
