without constant power Screen mimics paper appearance while delivering
dynamic digital content updates Samsung Electronics has introduced a 13-inch color e-paper display, expanding its signage lineup with a compact unit intended to replace printed notices in workplaces.

The device, dubbed the EM13DX model, is roughly the size of an A4 sheet and
is designed for use in environments such as retail counters, office spaces, hospitality desks, and restaurant service points. Samsung says , the display is intended to support rapidly changing operations, allowing information to
be updated without the recurring need to reprint physical materials. Article continues below You may like Samsung is making its next e-paper display from plankton yes, really! Samsung is bringing glasses-free 3D to a billboard

more interactive, whether you like it or not Digital ink and content flexibility The company says the screen maintains a paper-like appearance, aiming to replicate the visual clarity of printed signage while shifting it into a digital format.

It relies on digital ink technology, which enables static images to remain visible without continuous power usage.

This monitor only requires power when content is refreshed, a design choice that reduces ongoing energy demand compared to traditional screens.

This allows businesses to change menus, schedules, or announcements without replacing physical materials or relying on printed updates. Are you a pro? Subscribe to our newsletter Sign up to the TechRadar Pro newsletter to get

The system is also compatible with Samsungs content management tools , including its mobile application and cloud-based platform known as Visual eXperience Transformation.

These tools allow staff to update content locally or remotely, depending on operational needs, while also offering preview functions for layout and color accuracy before publishing.

The 13-inch model extends a larger Color E-Paper lineup that previously included a 32-inch version. What to read next The Hannspree Lumo is the

The smaller size is intended to increase placement flexibility, allowing deployment in tighter or more varied locations such as doors, shelves, and service counters.

Beyond the display and content system, Samsung Electronics states the housing includes 45% recycled plastic alongside 10% phytoplankton-based bio-resin.

The company also claims this composition can reduce manufacturing emissions compared to conventional plastic materials.

Packaging follows a similar approach, with paper-based materials used for boxes and protective components instead of plastic alternatives.

Modern businesses need signage that keeps pace with rapidly changing operations, said Jonathan del Rosario, Head of Product, Display Solutions, Samsung Electronics America.

With the new 13-inch addition to our Color E-Paper lineup, Samsung is delivering a compact, ultra-low-power display thats easy to install in high-visibility areas. Organizations can keep customers and employees updated with the latest information without the added cost and effort of constantly reprinting materials.
