Analyst firm CCS Insight said it expects smartphone makers to begin producing phones with “self-healing” displays within five years.
In its roundup of top tech predictions for 2024 and beyond, CCS Insight said that it expects smartphone makers to begin producing phones with"self-healing" displays within five years.
Smartphones with displays capable of repairing themselves could start appearing on the market by 2028, according to analyst firm CCS Insight. A few other phone makers have touted self-healing materials in smartphones. In 2017, Motorola filed a patent for a screen made from a"shape memory polymer" which, when cracked, repairs itself. The idea is that, when heat is applied to the material, it heals over the cracks.Still, the technology is yet to be found in a commercially successful handset. And there are a few barriers to launching such phones at a mass scale.

"HTC was one of the pioneers of VR, they've done a lot there," CCS Insight's Wood said."But they have kind of struggled to compete, because they haven't gone for the race to the bottom on price, whereas Meta, with Quest, have been prepared to take very aggressive pricing — almost just above cost pricing — to drive adoption."
