Motorola showcased its latest innovation at Lenovo Tech World ’23 in Austin: a flexible phone with an adaptive display that doubles as a bracelet or watch. The full HD phone boasts a 6.9″ display when flat and a 4.6″ display when curved, making it versatile for various uses.
The flexible screen, paired with a fabric backing, sets this smartphone apart in terms of design. Unlike traditional wrist-worn devices, the phone securely attaches to an inconspicuous bracelet via magnets, ensuring it stays in place during wear. However, it’s advisable not to wear it during vigorous activities like jogging.
While there’s no confirmed release date yet, the phone represents a leap forward in technological innovation. It’s a concept that demonstrates Motorola’s commitment to exploring new possibilities in flexible and foldable display technology.
According to a Motorola representative, the company’s 312 Labs team is focused on conceptualizing the future of display technology. Events like Tech World provide valuable feedback to shape the development of this concept and potentially influence Motorola’s current product lineup.
In addition to its innovative design, Motorola is incorporating AI features into the device. One notable feature is a generative AI capability that creates matching wallpaper based on a photo of your outfit. This ensures your wearable phone complements your style effortlessly. Furthermore, MotoAI, a personal assistant powered by ChatGPT-like technology, offers a range of AI-driven functionalities directly from your wrist.
Motorola’s flexible phone represents a convergence of cutting-edge technology and fashion-forward design, offering users a glimpse into the future of wearable devices.
