Although the development of smartphone technology continues to growth, but it is not followed by battery power that is able to support performance . It, too, has many complaints by iPhone users . However, to overcome these deficiencies reportedly the latest iPhone screen will have solar panels .
Reporting from Forbes , based on the analysis of the technology giant will start using solar panels to help power the touch screen made of sapphire . While Sapphire is the second hardest material after diamond .
That feature will make the Apple choose the material to protect electronic components in their latest product , the iPhone 6 . Features on the iPhone 6 will require more power , so the power supply from the solar panels will help power supply battery .
Not only that , the news is getting stronger with the opening of the position regarding technology products . Even Apple disbursed U.S. $ 10.5 billion in 2014 after agreeing with GT Advanced Technologies for use sapphire screen combined with solar panels .
The funding will be used to purchase the latest laser technology to form micro - channels on the solar panel integrated with the iPhone . Apple itself has been awarded a patent on this technology since last February 2013 .
Meanwhile , the next patent will be accepted in October , where the power of the solar panels will be entered into the system processing power on smartphones . Even Foxconn reportedly producing 100 prototype iPhone that uses sapphire display technology integrated with solar panels .
