Samsung Demonstrates Folding OLED Cellphone, Vindicates Thousands of Ridiculous Concepts [Fold, Unfold, Fold, Unfold]
Gizmodo — Buried amongst the piles of Newer! Bigger! Better! TVs, pico projectors and paper-thin, flapping OLED screens at FPD in Japan was an absolute gem: a folding OLED phone concept from Samsung. This isn't some half-assed, flat-to-sightly-bowed demo either: this thing folds over on itself completely. In its folded mode it looks quite similar to the D900, but the phone opens like a book to reveal a massive, bright OLED screen, folded down the middle. While we've got this luscious, luscious video, we don't have much in the way of specs, and it goes without saying that this stuff is probably a long ...

Samsung demonstrates fully foldable OLED cell phone screen
Boing Boing Gadgets — The footage is a bit grainy, and once you've seen ten seconds you've seen it all, but this clip captured at the Samsung booth of last week's FPD International show basically shows the future of displays: bright, fully-foldable OLED screens. We're years from seeing this technology in action, but I can't wait: fully foldable screens mean the 17-inch netbooks of 2011.

Samsung foldable OLED mobile phone
Obsessable News Feed — Samsung demonstrates a foldable concept cellphone with OLED screen. Although the footage above is a bit jumpy and low lit, you'll find a cellphone from Samsung that features a large foldable OLED screen and a secondary screen for when the device is closed in "phone mode." On display at the FPD 2008 conference (who doesn't love conferences about the use of fluoropolymers?), this concept phone won't be showing up in any market any time soon, but it's good to get an early glimpse at the future possibilities that may come from these emerging technologies. ...

Samsung foldable OLED helps us live the dream
CrunchGear — No real data on what appears to be a prototype FOLED screen that can fold into a smallish cellphone but I want. Every since William Gibson described a computer that folded out like a butterfly in Count Zero I’ve wanted something like this. A paper thin polycarbon screen unfurled ...

Check it out: iPhone 3.0 anyone? ...

Samsung concept phone gets folding OLED screen
Electronista | The Macintosh News Network — [image] Samsung concept phone features folding OLED screen At the FPD International show recently held in Japan, Samsung showed off a cellphone with a flexible folding OLED screen that, when opened, is larger than displays from any competitor. The handset features a vertical hinge and opens like a book. Once opened, the OLED display is about 5 inches in size. The unnamed handset also has a more conventional LED display on the front panel. That front panel also sports basic phone buttons, but there is no physical keypad, suggesting the smaller display is touch-sensitive. Official specs are not known, and there is no indication of which markets or even if the ...

Samsung Shows Off A Massive & Flexible OLED Screen
GadgetReview — Samsung showed of a massively awesome flexible OLED screen at this year’s FPD 2008.  Unfortunately, I don’t have any specs to go on and it’s difficult to tell how large the screen is, but I think the embedded video says enough.  Here’s looking at a huge ass phone screen in ‘09. It’s worth noting that the ‘flexing’ intervals are pretty few and far between, which leads me to believe the technology isn’t totally sound.  In other words, fold the screen 5 times in 30 seconds and perhaps it would have problems. [Oled-Display] ...

Samsung Shows Flexible Display For Cellphones
Wired: Gadget Lab — Flexible displays are inching closer to reality and they could soon be a part of your cellphone. At a recent conference in Japan, Samsung showed off a mobile phone prototype with a flexible display that folds like a book (see video above). No word on when this full color OLED (organic light-emitting diode) display will make it to commercial production. OLEDs are preferred to LCD displays because they draw less power and can be much thinner. Flexible displays are, meanwhile, already being discussed in other form factors. Arizona State University's Flexible Display Center is working ...

Le smartphone écran flexible par Samsung

À cet égard, la vidéo ci-dessous est assez impressionnante !

Samsung está mostrando un concepto de móvil con pantalla OLED plegable
Movilae — Vaya por delante que es precisamente eso, un concepto solamente por ahora. Pero el hecho de que ya se esté mostrando en público acerca la posibilidad de que el día de mañana veamos móviles con este tipo de pantallas. Pantallas plegables. No se trata de una pantalla dividida en dos partes, sino una sola pantalla que se pliega sobre sí misma, reduciendo el tamaño del terminal donde esté implementada, pero manteniendo sus dimensiones a tamaño real y por extensión, su resolución. Por ahora de momento, solo podemos contentarnos con el vídeo. Vía:  Engadget ...

Fold Your Phone Like Never Before!
Yanko Design — With “WILD FOLD.” Yes, it is the Mac Attack. Who else would go so wild? I ask you that. Here Mac Funamizu takes the idea of the Samsung Flexible OLED and applies it to several conceptual phones. How small is too small? Certainly we’ve tested the limits with certain fruit-related-mp3-players of late, correct? And how much fold is really necessary? With Mac, we will always know how far is too far! Peek at the several concepts below, and view the video that is Mr. Funamizu’s source of inspiration. I love it when a new bit of technology comes out and people RUSH to bust it all apart with ideas! Creation is progress! ...
