The Samsung Galaxy S5 will not be a smartphone with a curved screen (that is, a slightly bent screen). Since the launch of mobiles such as the Samsung Galaxy Round or the LG G Flex, many rumors suggested that the Galaxy S5 would have a screen similar to those of these smartphones. The South Korean company Samsung will not manufacture its next mobile with the curved screen because today it cannot supply all the demand for terminals that the Galaxy S5 would have at its launch.
Currently Samsung could only produce 500,000 smartphones per month with the curved screen. A figure that is not enough for the demand for more than a million terminals per month that Samsung would receive at the end of 2014, as pointed out by the Korean newspaper Korea Herald. This news comes a few days after it became known that the Samsung Galaxy S5 probably would not have a metal case. Korean sources are being very useful to get to know the details of the next Samsung mobileAfter all, they are the ones who know the orders and manufacturing processes of this South Korean company. For this reason, such rumors are often given so much credibility that they have not been confirmed or denied by Samsung at any time.
Precisely the time of greatest demand for the Galaxy S5 (late 2014) could also be the time of the arrival of a smartphone with a flexible and / or curved screen, as pointed out by analysts from the Korean newspaper.
And why is there so much talk about flexible and curved screens? The curved screen does not add too many novelties to the mobile except the option to consult the notifications simply by rotating the screen while it is resting on a table. That is, simply by turning the mobile a little, the screen would be unlocked without touching it.
On the other hand, flexible screens are a long-awaited novelty in the smartphone market. A flexible screen would offer two great assets. The first of these is shock resistance, since a material that can be bent easily would withstand the blows without suffering any damage. The second of the strengths of these screens is how practical it would be to roll up a mobile and store it in your pocket, even more so considering the large screen dimensions that current smartphones incorporate.
Collecting the rumors that are known about the Samsung Galaxy S5, today it can be safely said that this terminal will incorporate an eye sensor and a casing that will most likely not be made of metal, but of some plastic material. This terminal is also expected to be officially presented at the next CES 2014 that will take place between January 7 and 10, 2014. At this event, Samsung would also show its news in the tablet market (rumors suggest that three new tablets will be presented).
