Next-Generation iPhone will Use Thinner In-Cell Technology?

It is said that Apple is planning to use new "in-cell" display technology from Japanese manufacturers in the next-generation iPhone.

florida, Vietnam (prHWY.com) April 23, 2012 - It is said that Apple is planning to use new "in-cell" display technology from Japanese manufacturers in the next-generation iPhone. The move would benefit suppliers such as Sony, Sharp, and Toshiba, which currently lead the industry in the technology.

Compared with on-cell technology, touch panels that use in-cell technology can be made thinner because the touch sensors are actually placed inside the color filters rather than on top of them, he explained.

At present, two companies will supply touch panels to Apple, use mainly on-cell technology in their products.

The occasionally-reliable Digitimes is reporting similar claims based on "sources in Apple's supply chain", indicating that improvements in yield rates for the in-cell panels have made it feasible for Apple to use the technology in its products. According to the report, Sharp and Toshiba will be ramping up their production of in-cell panels this quarter.

"While the thinness of the device is cool, what I think is really cool is the thing you "touch" is going to get closer to your finger. Seems perhaps a minor detail, but increasing the illusion of tactile response is far more interesting to me than throwing in a quad core processor. This along with reducing the response time is going to be amazing."

It looks like it's going to be an October start. That found fit nicely. I bought the iPhone 4 the day Verizon got it and it is eligible for an upgrade in October. Now, despite all the new gimmicks' like this one, I really hope there will be a slightly bigger screen and some more battery life. Not that the battery life is bad - compared to competition it's actually good, but compared to "dumb phones," well, you can't compare that. My work "dumb phone" stays charged for about 2 weeks with occasional calls and is charged within 2h. I know that we won't get there, but more than 2 days with calls and app use would be great. So, in other words: My hope is that Apple uses the space they can save for better batteries. I don't want a thin-as-can-be phone just to find out the battery life is compromised.

I know for one can't wait, this means instead of a cracked outer layer, it will mean a cracked screen, every time.

But it is seriously. Apple has made these things too thin; I have to use a case to make my iPod touch, big enough to hold, and the gorilla in the room issue, battery life. It's terrible especially for a "gaming" device. I have wanted an iPad to try to do art off of, and if my iPod is any indicator, I will be tied to a power cord for the bulk of it.

Thin is cool, but not if you use multicore processors, and ultra high resolution, power technology in it.

I actually hope the competition gets apple to innovating either in power consumption, or in putting a larger battery in their devices. Thinner can go out the door.
