the vision behind rollable
Motorola sees the smartphone as an extension of themselves– a tool that allows to adapt to the surroundings and accomplish tasks with ease. Now, Motorola is investing in flexible OLED, or pOLED, screens to deliver an optimal balance of content and comfort. The Rollable concept embodies this idea with a screen that adjusts to three distinct states: extended, compact and peek, with a simple press of a button.
At just over 4 inches tall, the Rollable concept retracts to a super pocketable form smaller than most other premium devices on the market. Whether it be a 6.5” screen for immersive gaming or a retracted size for on-the-go convenience, this concept provides endless opportunities for content creation and entertainment while offering newfound flexibility of a small device with wraparound screen.
In addition to the Rollable smartphone concept, Lenovo debuted a Rollable laptop PC concept that employs similar technology to elevate multi-tasking and browsing capabilities while retaining a compact size.
