Kyocera brand has developed a folding phone concept that incorporates a folding OLED screen that folds into 'clam-shape,' resembling a wallet. Designer Susan McKinney explains the concept... "envisions a future where we have a more humanistic relationship with out phones. Appealing to our haptic senses, a soft, semi-rigid polymer skin surrounds a flexible OLED display. The metaphor of a "living" skin was used for its notions of protection and constant evolution, providing a heightened user experience. Shape memory allows keys to morph up from its surface when needed and fade away when not in use. The flexibility of the screen allows for greater adaptability of form and interaction"
Not in production quite yet. Design teams based in San Diego and Bangalore are still exploring ways to infuse concept ideas.
