AppleInsider points us to a recently published U.S. patent application from Apple which suggests that Apple may at some point in the future consider a wrap-around OLED display for the iPhone. The patent covers an item called an “electronic device with a wrapped display” and explains how a flexible OLED display “or other flexible display structure may be wrapped around” a device.
While the images contained in the patent application don’t quite resemble an iPhone, or any smartphone for that matter, the patent does make a point of noting that a wrap-around display could be used on an electronic device that “may have a touch sensor, accelerometer, gyroscope, and other sensors for gathering input…”
