Muscular Mobile Phone
This peculiar, creature-like mobile phone concept, appropriately named Curious, features a multi-sensory notification system that alerts the user to incoming calls with not only a standard vibration and ring, but also a complete changing of its shape! At rest, the phone lies flat, but upon being activated by a call, the sections begin to flex, offering an additional visual indication and shape that is more ergonomic for holding against the ear. To turn off, simply push the phone against a surface to deactivate it.

It would be even better as just a phone case instead of a new phone design!

Main goal was to build physical interaction between the user and the object : )

Would be cool with a flexible display so it doesn’t double the size of the phone without another purpose. I also see that being inconvenient if it is in your pocket making it harder to take out of said pocket.

I really like the idea of creating an interaction between the phone and the users but I think, given all possible scenarios, if an user was holding the phone and this phone returns to it’s original form after a call, I think there is a possibility that the user could get pinched by the cracks. so maybe, there could be an another way to create the interaction between the phone and users.
