Rumor: Samsung, Google and Xiaomi foldable smartphones will get 120Hz screen

The panels that Samsung Display delivers this year for foldable smartphones are said to be 120Hz OLED panels with ltpo backplanes. In addition to Samsung itself, Google, Oppo, Vivo and Xiaomi would release foldables with the panels.

All this year’s foldable smartphones that use Samsung Display panels offer 120Hz and have low-temperature polycrystalline oxide backplanes, claims Ross Young from analyst firm DSCC. Young more often reports information about upcoming smartphones at an early stage. According to him, the upcoming Z Flip 3 from Samsung itself will contain a 120Hz screen with a diagonal of 6.70 inches, but Google will also release a foldable panel with a 120Hz panel with a diagonal of 7.57 inches this year.

In addition, according to the analyst, a 7.11″ device from Oppo, an 8.2″ model from Vivo and an 8.1″ foldable from Xiaomi. Young claimed earlier this year that several foldable smartphones will appear in 2021, including from Google and Oppo and he stated that Xiaomi is working on several folding phones in 2020. That the Z Flip 3 will get a 120Hz screen was already shown earlier this month from data from the Tenaa certification database, MyFixGuide wrote.
