Transparent screens have benefits as well as limitations; benefits include a very eye-pleasing and futuristic smartphone, while limitations include a bad content viewing experience. However, with continued research and hard work put in by Display-tech giants like Samsung and LG, fiction may soon become a reality.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.citiusminds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/toma-areno-vjuEsMfux9Q-unsplash-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.citiusminds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/toma-areno-vjuEsMfux9Q-unsplash-1024x576.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3956\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>A recently published patent application (<a href=\"http:\/\/appft.uspto.gov\/netacgi\/nph-Parser?Sect1=PTO1&amp;Sect2=HITOFF&amp;p=1&amp;u=\/netahtml\/PTO\/srchnum.html&amp;r=1&amp;f=G&amp;l=50&amp;d=PG01&amp;s1=20200273926.PGNR.\">US20200273926A1<\/a>) filed by Samsung discloses an OLED transparent screen with a base substrate on which several pixels and circuits layers are placed. In addition, pixels have an emission area and a transmission area transparent to external lights that allow media or content to be displayed through light. In this way, users can view the screen&#8217;s content and, at the same time, see what is behind it. This technology can be implemented in foldable and expandable smartphones as well.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<figure class=\"wp-block-image size-large\"><a href=\"https:\/\/www.citiusminds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/dan-smedley-76YvNs5gzLM-unsplash-scaled.jpg\"><img decoding=\"async\" src=\"https:\/\/www.citiusminds.com\/blog\/wp-content\/uploads\/2021\/08\/dan-smedley-76YvNs5gzLM-unsplash-1024x683.jpg\" alt=\"\" class=\"wp-image-3947\"\/><\/a><\/figure>\n\n\n\n<p>Even though now Samsung has a blueprint for developing transparent phones, one can only guess how much time it will take to be production-ready.
