Chinese premium smartphone maker OnePlus has sent out media invites for an event on 13th January which the company has named “OnePlus 2020 Screen Technology Communication Meeting.”

The brand has not yet revealed what to expect in this meeting, which will be held on 13th January at 14:00 local time in Shenzhen B.PARK bloom garden.

However, going by the name of the event, it seems that the company will be revealing information about the latest screen or display technology that the company plans to use in its upcoming flagship smartphones.

If that turns out to be true, then we expect the company to showcase its 120Hz refresh rate screen for the upcoming smartphone given that the OnePlus 7T series phones come with 90Hz refresh rate.

There are lots of major developments happening when it comes to smartphone displays — from in-display fingerprint sensors to in-display camera modules to higher refresh rate. What OnePlus plans to talk about at this event still remains under the wraps.

The news about the screen technology meeting from the company comes just days after OnePlus showcased its OnePlus Concept One smartphone at the on-going CES 2020 in Las Vegas.

The phone features a vertical triple camera system that is neatly tucked under an electrochromic glass. When a current is applied, the glass can swiftly change from opaque to transparent. This special type of glass is used for sunroofs of some luxury cars, airplane windows and also for buildings where it used as a walls and windows.

In this smartphone, when the camera is turned on, the three sensors become instantly visible. When the camera app is closed, the triple cameras again become invisible. The company claims that it takes only 0.7 seconds for the glass to transition from transparent to opaque or vice versa.
