The large-screen foldable devices launched by Royole Corp, a manufacturer of flexible displays and smart devices, are displayed during a press conference in Beijng, China, 31 October 2018. Royole Corp, a manufacturer of flexible displays and smart devices, unveiled a large-screen foldable device on Wednesday (31 October 2018), which can be bent and rolled to function both as a smartphone and tablet. The product, known as the FlexPai, is equipped with the Shenzhen-based company's latest flexible display technology. The 7.8-inch high-resolution screen is 7.6 millimeters thick and can be bent over 200, 000 times. Bill Liu, founder of Royole, said at a product launch in Beijing that the FlexPai, priced from 8, 999 yuan ($1, 290), is designed so consumers need not buy smartphones and tablets at the same time. Liu said he hopes the company's ultra-thin, transparent and flexible electronics, including displays and sensors, will help reshape the future of smart home, automotive, consumer electronics and wearable products. To achieve that objective, Royole also said on Wednesday that it will invest 200 million yuan to encourage startups to create more content including games for the company's new device. Royole attracted global attention in 2014 when it released the world's thinnest full-color AMOLED flexible display screen, which can be bent or rolled. The company started mass production of its flexible displays in June after it spent two years and invested 11 billion yuan in building an advanced plant in Shenzhen, Guangdong province.
