If you're into leading edge cell phones, you probably won't be surprised to hear that 3M technology is in the hot, new Motorola™ Razor™ phone.
There are five pieces of Vikuiti™ Brightness Enhancement™ Films inside each Razor phone. The main, larger LCD screen (inside the clamshell) uses three Vikuiti™ films that make the display brighter by recycling light. One piece recycles polarized light, the other two recycle off axis light.
The second display screen is a smaller LCD panel (outside of the clamshell). It uses two more pieces of Vikuiti™ Brightness Enhancement Film for a brighter, clearer display.
Our pioneering film uses 3M microreplicated prism technology to provide maximum display brightness. Another bonus is that increased brightness can be converted into power savings and longer battery life.
