TL;DR<\/p>\n

A new rumor says that Samsung is developing a 3D display for phones at the same time Apple is working on a \u201cSpatial iPhone.\u201d
\nAn industry observer claims phones with glasses-free 3D displays may be commercially available by 2030.<\/p>\n

Apple is reportedly working on an iPhone with a 3D display, potentially using a panel manufactured by Samsung. A rumor making the rounds this week claims that Samsung is developing a glasses-free 3D display panel for phones at the same time Apple is working on a \u201cSpatial iPhone\u201d \u2014 and since Apple doesn\u2019t manufacture its own displays, it certainly seems like the two could be related.<\/p>\n

As spotted by MacRumors<\/a>, an industry observer going by Schr\u00f6dinger<\/a> posted screenshots on X this week showing messages describing the 3D projects from a contact labeled \u201cSecret Insider.\u201d The messages detail an in-development 3D display from Samsung referred to as \u201cH1,\u201d going on to briefly mention rumors about the so-called Spatial iPhone.<\/p>\n

While glasses-free 3D isn\u2019t new \u2014 the Nintendo 3DS launched with a lenticular 3D display in 2011 \u2014 the H1 display described in Schr\u00f6dinger\u2019s tweet would be more advanced. It\u2019d use a \u201cholographic layer\u201d embedded in the AMOLED panel along with eye tracking to create the effect of a three-dimensional image that persists even when the display changes position relative to the viewer (simple lenticular displays only work when viewed head-on).<\/p>\n

Samsung is reportedly moving its 3D Plate tech to mobile with the MH1 (H1) display. Forget 2D we\u2019re talking glasses-free holographic depth & spatial AI avatars floating above the glass. More info will be shared on Schr\u00f6dinger Intel soon\u2026 pic.twitter.com\/mUysO0Wbv5<\/a><\/p>\n

This all sounds feasible: Samsung has been working on glasses-free 3D display tech for some time, having published research about holographic displays in 2020<\/a>. It\u2019s also not unreasonable to assume that if Apple does release a phone with a 3D display, it\u2019ll source the screen from Samsung, though it\u2019s important to note Schr\u00f6dinger\u2019s purported insider source didn\u2019t explicitly make that connection in the messages shared on X.<\/p>\n

In a subsequent tweet<\/a>, Schr\u00f6dinger says that phones with holographic 3D displays could reach consumers by 2030, claiming that Samsung\u2019s H1 display is in \u201cphase 1\u201d of research and development.<\/p>\n

Consumers haven\u2019t really been enthusiastic about 3D tech to date; 3D TVs failed to stick around past the 2010s, and while the 3DS turned out to be a hit for Nintendo, the 3D aspect in particular wasn\u2019t especially well liked \u2014 multiple later revisions of the handheld left out 3D entirely to cut costs.<\/p>\n

Would you buy a phone with a 3D display in the next few years? Would you pay extra for that feature? Let us know in the comments.<\/p>\n
