Samsung to Showcase 5.5" Flexible Display at CES 2013

South Korean mobile phone maker Samsung is once again said to plan the unveiling of a 5.5-inch flexible display at the 2013 Consumer Electronics Show in Las Vegas.

The new screen is meant for future devices that will deliver a 1280×720 HD resolution and can be bent, but it seems that it cannot be rolled up completely. Samsung has been working on bendable displays for quite some time now, but it has showed only smaller ones so far, measuring 4.5 inches and capable of delivering WVGA resolutions.

Some of the previous reports on Samsung’s plans for the smartphone market suggested that the company was planning on including a flexible touchscreen in its next flagship Android smartphone, dubbed Galaxy S IV and expected to become official before the end of the first quarter of 2013.
