Medvedev was right: Apple is preparing an iPhone with an additional E-Ink screen

Remember Dmitry Medvedev’s famous reaction to YotaPhone: “In short, Apple has tensed up”? Nine years later, according to

to the famous Apple analyst Ming-Chi Kuo, so it isIt happened. Yabloko is testing the use of E-Ink displays as additional external screens for the iPhone. True, we are not talking about all-in-one smartphones, as was the case with Yota Devices, but about folding smartphones. And the display will not be black and white, but color, fortunately, over ten years E-Ink has managed to make significant progress in creating multi-colored electronic ink.

Apple may not be the only major newE-Ink customer. According to Ming-Chi Kuo, displays based on "e-paper" technology could become quite popular as the external screens of folding smartphones due to their exceptional energy efficiency. It is possible that over time this will become "mainstream", and AMOLED displays will hardly be used in this role.
