Electronic device and display method

Abstract

The invention discloses an electronic device and a display method.The electronic device comprises a display module, the display module comprises a first area, a second area and a folding area located between the first area and the second area, the first area further comprises an extension area, the extension area extends in the folding direction from the end away from the folding area, and the extension area is located between the first area and the second area. The length of the first area in the folding direction is larger than that of the second area in the folding direction, and the display module is used for displaying preset information in the extension area when the first area and the second area are in a folding state. According to the electronic equipment, the extension area is arranged on the first area, and the preset information can be displayed in the extension area when the first area and the second area are in the folded state, so that a user can check the preset information conveniently, the screen body does not need to be opened frequently, damage to the screen body caused by multiple times of bending is avoided, the number of installation processes is small, and the manufacturing cost of the screen body is saved.

Description

technical field [0001] The present invention generally relates to the technical field of display devices, and in particular to an electronic device and a display method. Background technique [0002] With the continuous development of science and technology, the appearance of mobile electronic devices has undergone great changes. Among them, the flexible screen satisfies more needs of users for electronic devices due to its strong flexibility and bendability. At present, flexible screens can be used as folding screens in mobile electronic devices. The folding screen can obtain a larger usable area after unfolding, which satisfies the look and feel, and the smaller size after folding satisfies the hand feeling and is convenient for storage. [0003] At present, the related technology adopts the design of folding screen inwardly. When the user needs to check the time and other information, he needs to open the screen and enter the working mode to display the time and other rel...

Problems solved by technology

[0003] At present, the related technology adopts the design of folding screen inwardly. When the user needs to check the time and other information, he needs to open the screen and enter the working mode to display the time and other related information. However, the frequent opening of the screen affects the performance of the screen. service life

In addition, a secondary screen can be made on the outer surface of the whole machine shell to replace the internal main screen to display status information such as time. However, this method will not only increase the process of installing the machine, but also lead to high production costs.
