Samsung to start shipping flexible screen phones

The flexible screen will be almost unbreakable

Global Tech giant Samsung have announced that from early 2012 they will definitively start shipping mobile phones that have flexible screens.

Spokesman Robert Yi said that after mobile phones, Samsung would start introducing the technology into devices such as Tablets.

Initially Samsung will release the "Galaxy Skin" model, which will be fully loaded with 1GB of RAM, a 1.2GHz Processor, an 8 Megapixel Camera and a 800×480 high resolution AMOLED screen which will allow it to be literately rolled up like a newspaper.

Due to the materials used, the flexible screen will be almost unbreakable and the Galaxy Skin's screen will even be able to bend around a cylinder with a diameter of 1 inch.

Although many companies have shown flexible screen prototypes in the past, Samsung are they only company who have confirmed any real intergeneration plans.

At the recent Nokia World, tech giant Nokia demonstrated their own flexible mobile phone prototype called the "Nokia Kinetic", which allows the user to bend and twist the Nokia device in order to navigate through photos, its menu and play games.

The main ingredient in this flexible screen technology is something called "Graphene", and at the Columbia University Scientists concluded that "Graphene" was around 200 times stronger than structural steel and therefore it's the strongest material in the world.

Hopefully over next year we will see this flexible screen technology start appearing in all kinds of devices, from mobile phones to large screen Televisions.
