Hands on: Motorola has a phone that's somehow also a bracelet


It bends. But it doesn't break.

You can also bend a smaller portion of it to turn it into a stand, and the phone will actually push its user interface upwards, giving you full control of the apps on the screen. The way Motorola did this, the rep explained to me, is by using a bendable pOLED display, and a number of smaller batteries instead of the typical one big unit, arranged in such a way to form a sort of a spine for the device, supporting it when you bend it. The company rep also told me that there aren't too many apps designed for it at the time - understandable, given it's just a concept at this stage.
