Consumer hardware in 2027 builds directly on what shipped at CES 2026, where rollable and foldable displays graduated from experiments to products. Samsung's Mont Flex prototype showed a foldable OLED with no visible crease from any angle — long the format's biggest complaint.
Rollable panels survived up to 1.2 million folds using self-healing polymers and water-drop hinges. Expect 2027's flagships to push tri-fold form factors, crease-free panels, under-display cameras and flexible batteries from prototype into the mainstream.
