Samsung galaxy flex concept!

So as some of you know, i work on a lot of different concepts. 

When it comes to concept i sometimes make designs that are "new" in a way with the current development 

in it. 

Like the Samsung smartwatch phone idea. But also this concept. 

Now i know this concept has bin online for some time and i happy about what people think about it!

The comments go from the most elegant to the most beautiful concept seen! Now that makes me proud of what i am doing and makes me work more and more on concepts. 

However. In the articals most of the time it was not explained correct about what the idea was. 

And i wanne make a clear blog about this!

Design: 

So to start of with the design. Well it is pretty clear that the phone can be folded in the middel. 

And it has a display outside. The outside display if for people to control there incomming calls, messages but also there music. Now offcourse you can open your phone and then control your music. But i found it handy to work it out this way because it allows for a bit more easy control but also powersaving. 

next is the size of it and i mean how thin it is. Pretty easy to explain this one... My bad... haha. In basic i did not really think about it at the time! It was the start of creating something different then normal and i just forgot to think really about how thick the phone had to be. In my eyes. The plastic screen allows for it to just have that, where a normal screen needs a light source on the back. 

Therefore i created a very thin phone. But i kinda over did it and made it to thin. 

Techincal ideas:

Well in this people said a flex battery. This is not what i had in mind. I thought about having a longer battery on 1 side. (on the other side of the screen). And because of the plastic screen it should save battery life. There fore the battery does not have to be as big as the normal phones. 

How does the fold work? Well i had to move the main button in the middel to the right side where you normally have the on/off button to make this work. The on/off button is moved to the top. 

this allows you to still have a main button to go back to the home screen. 

So the fold work like this. When the phone is open there is nothing really going on. But when you fold in. In the middel there are 2 plastic bars behind the screen then move. Allowing for the screen to go in that hole. Because a display cannot be folded 180 degrees. It has some roundness to it.  Therefore something has to open behind it. 

So that is in basic the idea i had with the Samsung galaxy flex phone. 

So what do you think? How do you like the design?
