Oh dude this could be great for foldables!
With the density being at 100dpi, it might take a while still.
True. Still, worth it to see this develop.
Would it? I want to unfold/unroll device and get more content, not the same content stretched
If you put it in the crease of a foldable, it's stretched when stowed, and normal in use.
It would still unfold or unroll, you'd just have a better experience with it. Because it's flexible, creases would be managed better, thus making existing and future form factors better.
Now they just need to make a durable foldable display
I have a feeling that this would be the first step in that direction.
