Chinese flexible display specialist Royole has lifted the lid on its upcoming FlexPai 2 foldable smartphone. Pitched as a significant upgrade on the FlexPai 1 (goodnight, sweet prince), the FlexPai 2 will feature a 7.8in foldable screen that uses 3rd Generation Cicada Wing Fully Flexible Display (FFD) tech. That new-and-improved bendy screen promises a 50 percent increase in brightness, accurate and vidid colours from any perspective, and a smooth folding experience after over 200,000 bends. The FlexPai 2 will combine its fancy display with a new proprietary ‘Super Seamless & Stepless Hinge (3S Hinge) along with “state-of-the art” computing and memory upgrades. Given the FlexPai 2 is scheduled to launch in Q2 this year, we shouldn’t have to wait long for more concrete specs and pricing details.

I’m a freelance games and technology journalist currently mashing my keyboard in the name of fine institutions like Stuff, where you'll usually find me waxing lyrical about the latest mobile morsels. I've also been known to cook up some decidedly delicious reviews from time to time, and was once dubbed 'the games industry's answer to Nigella Lawson' by someone probably somewhere.
