At present, the folding screen mobile phones of domestic manufacturers tend to use water drop hinges, which are different from U-shaped hinges. When the phone is folded, the bottom is in the shape of a water drop, which avoids folding the screen directly and reduces creases.

Huawei, OPPO and other manufacturers in the water drop hinge technology has been more mature, while Samsung, as the leader of the folding screen, has not used the water drop hinge technology for a long time.

In fact, Samsung obtained the relevant patent for ldquo; droplet hinge & rdquo; as early as 2016, but so far it has not used it on its own mobile phone.However, Samsung Galaxy Z Fold5/Flip5 has confirmed the use of the new water drop hinge technology, according to blogger ldquo;i Ice Universe & rdquo;.

At present, although there are some differences in hinge structure design, water drop hinge has been widely used in folding screen mobile phones, which can be said to be a quite mature structural design scheme.
