Mobile Phone Gets All Bendy
It is a soft mobile phone concept. The phone is encased in a flexible plastic housing. A soft polymer insert is located between the microchip module and the casing. You can drop it, bend it, sit on it, toss it around, and give it to Naomi Campbell to throw at her assistant without detriment.
A flexible display (a 2,75-in. diagonal, a 433 × 266 pixels) and the keys are located on the surface. The display itself looks like paper, but the ink incorporated in it can change its position when affected by electric signals. This process called “electrowetting” is so quick that you can even display video. And it’s not a fairytale technology either. The display was developed by Robert Hayes and Johan Feenstra. They better patent that ASAP.

Interesting design…I’m guessing we won’t see this technology for another 10yrs though…too expensive for consumer electronics now
Noemi says
Quisiera saber si puedo ser la persona que pruebe este nuevo telefono, ya que me especializo en romper celulares. Espero vuestra respuesta. Muchas gracias

At last, a phone I can use without worrying about it breaking if I abuse it.
Chlo says
When will this be able to purchase?
No_Frills says
maybe it wont break even if you stamp on it, but it’s so ugly it makes me sad

Great Phone!
blipoids says
Indeed…
Not bad says
My sister could use that. I can’t think of a single place where she has not dropped her phones or a way she has not dropped them by. It’s not exactly ugly but they could still improve a little on its design. Very good though, considering you could watch videos on it.
