Harry we are aware that companies can be inspired by our posts considering how is nice this forum for people that work in the sector, so I tell you hoping that major players will embrace this vision.
3 points: 1) cons 2) advantages 3) synergies
1)cons
it is likely eink-lcd will become the standard( so i cannot be sure) because an eink on the back has only one cons: the higher price.
it is a real cons? not, because we know that prices in technology go down for every thing really fast.
So the Eink AT LEAST do not harm nobody, as can be inserted on the back in place of the plastic usual cover.
2) advantages
What are instead the advantages of the eink-lcd to make it likely to become a standard now that we demonstrated that there are not real cons?
And what the consumer wants?
Consumer want batteries that last longer, nicer design, and readable screens in all the conditions.
eink-lcd give them this, so it is likely to become standard
3) synergies
mobile developers ifeink-lcd become standard could make some special app that are
1) optimized for the eink, like readers, photo, fashion images that personalize the phone, notifications customization, widgets, signals
2) that exploit the concept to be functional to spare battery so communicate between the two screens to make the user experience better, ex. sensor light and decide which one switch on
3) developers to make money will come up with genial ideas, reinventing new functionalities, that could be adopted by others as it happened for instance with whatsapp with android and then viber and the other followers that made others billionaires companies, so inventing new things will become always more useful, think over internet of things, wereables communication etc
Of course I have also others idea, like think to ereaders 6 inches tablet that are equal to the actual eink of today but with a tablet back for the same weight... and much more but I do not want to go further as I am a simple junior android developer and as happened in the past do not want to give away too many idea without making money on it
