[Focus] Electronic ink technology enters Chinese smartphone

Power-saving weapon: produced by Guangzhou Wenshi Information Technology Co., Ltd. (Onyx International). The battery life of Android devices with electronic ink displays lasts up to one week.

At the beginning of last month, Guangzhou Wenshi Information Technology Co., Ltd. (hereinafter referred to as Wenshi Technology), a notorious e-reader supplier in China, showed off a prototype of an Android smartphone equipped with an electronic ink display, which became the focus of technology hot spot. Soon there were two different voices of singing good and singing bad, and many questions about this phone, and whether aragonite technology can overcome the inherent limitations of electronic ink technology to meet users' increasing demand for smart phones. look forward to.

Aragonite Technology is from Guangzhou, located in the southern China technology manufacturing center area adjacent to Shenzhen and Hong Kong. It is a high-tech enterprise established only four years ago.

The "e-ink phone" shown in a video on YouTube has no surprises other than the display. It supports Wi-Fi and 3G (WCDMA) networks, built-in ARM Cortex-A5 processor, the operating system is slightly outdated Android 2.3 from Google. However, the ultra-thin capacitive touch electronic ink display makes it incredibly light-weighing less than 100 grams-and does not hinder reading in direct sunlight. And because of the low power consumption display, its battery life can last up to a week.

E Ink was founded in 1997 by Joseph Jacobson, a professor at the Massachusetts Institute of Technology, and was a pioneer in the production of electrophoretic displays. The electronic ink in such displays is composed of millions of microcapsules, each of which is filled with smaller particles suspended in a clear liquid. These particles are either positively charged (white) or negatively charged (black). When energized, the corresponding charged particles move to the top of the microcapsule according to the charged charge, so that each point of the screen appears corresponding white or black .

Electronic ink can be applied to almost any surface, glass, plastic, fabric, or even paper. This means that the electronic ink display can be made lighter and thinner than the common LCD, which makes Aragon's products lighter and smoother. For smartphones, it may be more noteworthy that if the plastic substrate is applied, it will improve its shatterproof ability.
