Samsung to show off flexible 4.5″ AMOLED screen

Earlier this week we reported that the Taiwanese Industrial Technology Research Institute had developed a 6″, 1mm-thick flexible AMOLED screen. Not willing to be outdone, it appears that Samsung have come up with a flexible 4.5″ AMOLED screen, bringing the size of the screen closer to those that can be used in phones. It will have a resolution of 800 x 480 (no, it’s no Retina Display replacement..yet) and a minimum bending radius of 1cm. With plans to announce it at the upcoming FPD-International conference, along with their 7″ Super AMOLED screen, we can’t wait to see this screen in future generations of handheld devices. A folding phone or tablet, anyone?
