Sharp Shows Off Curved Display Concept

Oct 7, 2016, 10:57 AM by Eric M. Zeman

Sharp this week revealed a concept smartphone screen that has actual curved corners and nearly no bezels. The concept panel is called Corner R. Sharp used its Free-Form Display technology in order to shape the panel. Free-Form Display allows Sharp's IGZO LCD panels to be given various non-flat shapes, and it also tucks the display's controllers under the screen itself rather than in the bezels. The Corner R concept measures 5.2 inches and offers full HD resolution. Sharp showed off the concept panel at the CEATEC trade show in Japan. The company did not say if or when screens such as the Corner R might become a real option for smartphones.

Sharp

Sharp has phenomenal displays. I had one of their flip phones over 10 years ago and that display was something else to behold for its time. If the curved concept is marketed, I'm sure it will be a hit.
