OnePlus confirms they’re working on 120Hz display refresh rate tech

At the CES 2020 trade show last week, OnePlus showcased a prototype device with cameras that can turn invisible. The Concept One made use of electrochromic glass to turn the glass over the camera module from transparent to opaque by changing the current and voltage. While electrochromic glass isn’t new, OnePlus is the first company to use it to hide camera lenses on a smartphone. OnePlus’s argument behind this new technology was that the smartphone industry will eventually figure out under-screen camera technology, eliminating visible cameras on the front of a device. The disappearing cameras on the back, therefore, are complementary to the under-screen camera technology with the end goal to hide all cameras on a device from view. While we may not see these disappearing cameras in OnePlus’ next flagship, we now have reason to believe that it might include a 120Hz display.

OnePlus’ CEO Pete Lau recently took to Weibo to reveal that the company has completed the research and development of a high refresh rate 120Hz display. The company will be holding an event at 2 PM China Standard Time today to talk about its latest display technology. As of now, the company hasn’t revealed any more information about the new display tech, but we’ll update this post as and when we receive more information from the upcoming event. It is worth noting, however, that since OnePlus doesn’t manufacture displays itself, it’s quite likely that the company is sourcing the display from a major supplier like Samsung Display.
