Sketch of Apple's patent to make MacBook Pro screens thinner
If you own any of Apple's laptops, you know that one of its strengths is the screen. I do not mean its quality and sharpness in the images, which also, if not I am referring to how thin they are but at the same time resistant. Are you able to open a laptop from any other brand, just by lifting the screen without moving the laptop itself?
Apple wants to go a step further and introduce its most iconic model, the MacBook Pro, new materials that would make that screen even stronger and thinner. We are currently talking only about a patent, but if it were to become a reality, it would reduce the overall size and weight of the computer.
The patent talks about carbon fibers in the screens of the MacBook Pro
One of the weakest points of any laptop is its screen. Due to the continuous ups and downs of it, they are subjected to openings, torsions, displacements and others.
If we add to this the fight of companies to make a computer that weighs less and is thinner, because after all we want a laptop to move around, the part that suffers the most is the screen. But what if I told you that according to Apple patent, this could have found the solution that includes less weight, thinner and more resistance. Surely you would not think about your purchase.
Apple suggests using carbon fiber to improve the strength of that section. It is said that the screen, which could have curved sides, introduced a polymer mesh composed of one of the strongest and lightest materials known up to now, positioned in such a way that they could not be dislodged or wrinkled. Achieving a combined thickness of less than 2mm.
At the moment we are talking about a patent that you may or may not see the light. However, Apple is working hard to improve the screens of its MacBook as evidenced by the new rumors. of the introduction of Mini-LED panels in them.
