Samsung Galaxy Skin: Flexible Android Smartphone For Masses

This Smartphone can be folded. It can be beaten to pulp with a hammer but it will survive the hardest blows. No we are not talking about a phone from the latest James Bond. In fact we are talking about Samsung's new smartphone called 'Skin'.

Certain reports in the online world state that Samsung's futuristic foldable Android smartphone will be available in the consumer market in the first quarter of 2012. The first news of the Samsung Skin as a concept was reported by International Business Times.

This phone has a 1.2 GHz processor, high-resolution AMOLED screen, 8MP camera, 1GB of RAM and will run the latest Android. The technology relies on atom-thick layers of 'graphene' sandwiched together, protecting a layer of liquid crystal 'screen'.

"AMOLED is already the mobile screen technology to beat, so if it's as good as promised, flexible AMOLED could put an end to smashed smartphone displays and tablets, which are even more fragile," Will Findlater, editor of Stuff magazine, told the Daily Mail which first reported the story about the phone being available in spring 2012.
This is indeed interesting technology and we are intrigued about how the retail device will perform. Keep reading this space for more updates.
