Samsung to sell dual edge screens to other manufacturers?

Samsung is reportedly in talks with other smartphone manufacturers who are interested in purchasing the dual edge displays used on the Samsung Galaxy S7 edge. Huawei, Xiaomi and other companies would use the displays on their handsets, adding their proprietary designs and software to make the finished product their own, and not just a Galaxy S7 edge copy.

An image showing the side of the Vivo Xplay 5 appears to show that Vivo is using the display on its new handset. The BlackBerry Priv is also said to be sporting one of Samsung's edge screens.

If the talks between Samsung and the other manufacturers end with a handshake, we could see more models sporting a familiar dual edge screen in the near future.
