Samsung was granted a new series of design patents yesterday with a number of them being very interesting designs indeed. Two of the most interesting designs include a possible killer scroll-out smartphone and a radical all-in-one desktop.
Unlike "patent applications," design patents published by the U.S. Patent and Trademark Office don't reveal pertinent information about a particular design. We can look at the design and appreciate it for what it projects, but we'll never discover which materials may be used to construct the design. We'll never know what unique internal components may be hidden within the device or learn about any unique features that we could look forward to. All we get is the simple visual of what could be coming down the pipeline. With that said, here are this week's most noteworthy designs.
Samsung Wins a Design for a Scroll-Out Display Smartphone
Samsung has been working on this new design since 2012. We covered it extensively in a patent report that you could review here. Samsung's latest design patent slightly refines the design.
Samsung Wins a Design Patent for a Hybrid Tablet Computer
The design patent doesn't provide us with any idea as to how the tablet PC in FIG.1 will connect to the keyboard that's noted in FIG. 8 above. In June Samsung had been granted another design for a hybrid which you could review here.
Samsung Wins a Design Patent for a Radical All-in-One Computer
This radical all-in-one desktop computer will allow users to adjust the angle of the display with a flex hinge as noted in FIG. 4. The hinge for this newly granted design could be further understood by reviewing our August report that went into great detail describing Samsung's new flex hinge.
A Future Samsung Tablet may include their Newly Granted Stereo Speaker Design
On a last note I wanted to point out that Samsung's new Galaxy Note Edge smartphone that was launched earlier today was first covered in a 2013 patent report of ours that provides some addtional details that are noteworthy.
