In a rapid response to Apple’s innovative Liquid Glass UI, several Chinese smartphone manufacturers have swiftly incorporated similar design elements within their customized Android interfaces. However, this isn’t the only design they are pursuing. If they act quickly, these competitors may be able to surpass Apple in the race to unveil a quad-curved display design, which is highly anticipated for the iPhone 20.

OPPO’s Innovative Quad-Curved Display Design

Recent reports indicate that OPPO is exploring this groundbreaking technology and may showcase a display that offers the same bezel-less appearance expected from Apple’s forthcoming iPhone 20. Notably, OPPO’s flagship smartphone is anticipated to feature a flat surface combined with a slight curvature along its edges, creating an illusion of a ‘floating’ effect.

Our previous analyses have emphasized the importance of Apple’s Liquid Glass UI in enhancing the full-screen experience for its users. However, sources such as yeux1122’s blog suggest that Chinese competitors are not hesitating to replicate this approach. While the specific OPPO flagship model involved has yet to be identified, the design concepts are closely aligned with Apple’s anticipated release.

Incorporating Apple’s Liquid Glass effect may be as simple as a toggle within the settings menu on OPPO devices, which allows them to provide a similar visual experience. Yet, it’s crucial to highlight that this advanced technology may come at a high cost. Apple benefits from an established and efficient supply chain, enabling it to maintain competitive pricing on its offerings. In contrast, the ongoing global DRAM shortage may hinder OPPO’s ability to introduce this innovative flagship at an attractive price point.

Furthermore, if Apple releases an alternative, potentially more affordable model featuring this display design coupled with superior specifications, it could enjoy significant commercial success. As the situation evolves, we will continue to monitor and report on whether other Chinese smartphone manufacturers, besides OPPO, embrace this new design aesthetic.
