Samsung has put a lot of effort into the S20 series of cameras. The camera module takes up a lot of space. You can also see a multi-layer motherboard, a large area VC heat sink and an X-axis linear vibration motor. pic.twitter.com/AUee6bMi54

another youtuber puts samsung hinge above moto hinge and says hinges are the most important part of folding phones hinge talk starts around 3.40
oh im holding tight onto my dime shares aint no one gonna make me sell them :)
that would be awesome if it happens such a merger/buyout would be amazing and even more amazing if johnson has a hands on roll at lqmt.
lolz so your saying they dont want to be listed ha!
marios is missing/out of the loop but im sure he will get the memo

johnson would be over the moon with a $5 million offer.
i doubt lugee will transfer his own shares to merge glassimetal with lqmt.
as of sept 2019 lqmt has $31 million cash and about 180,000,000 shares left to issue.
so maybe a cash and/or share transfer directly from lqmt not lugee.
Preferred Stock, $0.001 par value;
10,000,000 shares authorized; 0 shares issued and outstanding at June 30, 2019 and December 31, 2018, respectively

so many positives in that article pay its again more evidence/proof lugee is busy making things happen
one of the reasons why lugee invested heavily into lqmt was because of the relationship with apple so he might buyout the glassimetal startup (thru lqmt) for the same reason.
Really wish I could independently find this article on the web.
Not suggesting it isn’t authentic just wish I could find independently.
Fingers crossed that it is legit and is a positive sign for this to come regarding LQMT US.
According to Haitong News, the liquid metal industry application of Yi'an Technology is mainly divided into two major sections, one of which is consumer electronic structural components. As one of the very few suppliers in the industry to realize the commercialization of liquid metal precision structural parts in the field of consumer electronics, Eian Technology has established good cooperative relations with Huawei, OPPO, Xiaomi and other well-known customers.

Yi'an Technology: Folding screen mobile phone is sought after by liquid metal "Money King" charming
February 14, 2020 15:15 Haitong News Media
[Haitong News, Dongguan, February 14, 2020] Today, with the physical keyboard almost disappearing, the screen size determines the size of the mobile phone.
Jobs once said, "3.5 inches is the gold size of a mobile phone screen, and the bigger screen is extremely stupid." However, time has passed, and the screen of most mobile phones has already exceeded the "Apple Godfather" gold standard. Even so, in the era of large screen applications such as short video and mobile games, consumer demand for large screens has not stopped.
It is in this context that folding screen mobile phones have emerged on demand
In the new wave of mobile phones in 2019, the call for "folding screens" is rising, and the outside world has been watching who can seize the market. Among them, Huawei launched the first folding screen phone-Mate X in November 2019. Huawei Mate X uses a flexible folding screen and uses an eagle-wing outer folding solution, which can reach 8 inches when unfolded; it can be folded gently to become a 6.6-inch screen that can be controlled with one hand. The other screen has a size of 6.38 inches. The thickness of one side of the body is only 5.4mm. After the official listing, Mate X was well received by the market. Although the price is as high as 16,999 yuan, it was sold out in just one minute, and it is even harder to find in the second-hand market.
Back to the screen, screen folding seems simple, but it is not easy to implement. Whether it is a cover, a hinge, or a polarizer, every part of the supply chain must not be compromised. Here, the hinge is the key to the realization of a foldable mobile phone. The metal hinge has a complex design structure and places extremely high demands on the processing of precision parts.
How to solve this process problem? The answer given by Dongguan Yi'an Technology Co., Ltd. is liquid metal. According to Haitong News, the liquid metal industry application of Yi'an Technology is mainly divided into two major sections, one of which is consumer electronic structural components. As one of the very few suppliers in the industry to realize the commercialization of liquid metal precision structural parts in the field of consumer electronics, Eian Technology has established good cooperative relations with Huawei, OPPO, Xiaomi and other well-known customers.
As mentioned earlier, the emergence of folding screen mobile phones has provided new opportunities for liquid metal applications. Professor Li Yangde, Chairman of Yi'an Technology, said in an interview with Haitong News: Liquid metal has very good forming ability and dimensional stability is very good. It can meet the requirements of the thickness, strength and accuracy of the hinge support. One of the solutions. At present, in addition to mass production projects, Yi'an Technology is also cooperating with multiple customers at home and abroad for hinge design and development.
Professor Li Yangde said: The advent of the 5G era has greatly advanced the application of liquid metal in the consumer electronics field. In addition to hinges, the liquid metal Face ID bracket produced by Yi'an Technology has also been supplied in batches to well-known domestic mobile phone manufacturers such as Huawei, Xiaomi, OPPO goods. Many people ask me why only Yi'an can make liquid metal. Yi'an Technology's layout on liquid metals has been in existence for nearly 10 years. It has a layout of the entire industrial chain of material research and development, production, equipment development and production, product development and production. Human liquid metal team. This team has more than 10 years of experience in liquid metal industrialization. It has accumulated rich experience in the development of liquid metal application markets, the expansion of domestic and foreign end customers, the development of internal components and appearance products, and mass production. Industrialization experience. Gao Kuan is a material science background with more than ten years of R & D and management experience. He has a good grasp of the development direction of team management and industry. I believe he will lead the team to make the liquid metal industry bigger and stronger.
There is no doubt that the competition in the consumer electronics market has shifted from high-end, high-quality, differentiated competition in the past to purely pursuits of shipments and cost-effective products. The refined route is becoming more and more light, thin, beautiful, wear-resistant, corrosion-resistant, and high-strength for consumer electronics.
According to Haitong News Agency's query for Sigmaintell, the worldwide sales of foldable smartphones in 2019 will reach 700,000. With the rapid decline of the cost of folding screens, it is estimated that the global sales of foldable smart terminals will be about 4 million units in 2020, a year-on-year growth of about 519%, and the industry will usher in explosive growth. By 2025, this number will increase to 150 million units. In this case, the prospect of liquid metal with outstanding performance advantages is obviously limitless, and Yi'an Technology, which holds the ace of "liquid metal", may gain wider development space.
or maybe casings? just found it interesting after past events (tesla/eontec/catl) and recently jb saying the eutectix deal with lqmt is about batteries.

looks like once again samsung is using very strong hinges.
LiquidMetal Brand and its impact both domestically and globally.
LiquidMetal Brand is now well guarded domestically with the Lawsuit win.
In US, all Whales and their suppliers WILL comply to LQMT.
In US, Royalty License payment of 6% will satisfy LQMT.
In China, all Whales and their suppliers WILL comply to Apple.
However in China, Royalty License payment will not satisfy Apple.
Hence in China, all Whales must make order thru LQMT.
LQMT can then farm it out back to Asian Suppliers to fulfill the order.
LQMT will be satisfied with 6% gross margin.
LQMT order fulfillment will be counted as US Export.
Somehow the politician will say job well done.
Voodoo Reaganomic. WIN WIN.....
tesla is a cult stock if we are associated with it lqmt will rocket up higher/faster than it would with apple and soon it will be both and ford too

'6% Commission for LQMT'
add another 6% if its a referral from lqmt

so maybe airpower/se2/iphone9 in march then 5g iPhone/ipad in fall
5 possible apple products (not including hinges) might have a chance to be in more than 1 of them.
i dont think march se2/iphone 9 will be the event more likely the 5g ipad this fall.
Don’t know if you read up on de Neufville, but that guy is brilliant and he’s already made ridiculous money selling off a Company he started.

magnesium/liquidmetal magnesium/magnesium bone nails etc basically everything is part of the pla.
lugee has set himself up giving lqmt ALL ip eontec/maze/lqmt create in the 5 years of the pla.
only question is how ‘existing customer’ is applied/defined on past/future products.

the more you try to drop the price the more the bids outweigh the asks on level 2
did you bother to read the 8k?

that would be more fantastic news
i dont think so the agreement was made on january 31 2020 so pointless to announce any contract until eutectix has all machinery shipped then up and running.
so eutectix is bearing all the expenses for the below just for the fun of it?
do yourself a favour and read the 8k
