This Motorola concept phone can wrap around your wrist

Lenovo

What if your smartphone can just wrap around your wrist? Motorola's newest concept smartphone hinges on this idea, even if it technically doesn't have the hinge that foldable phones need now. Motorola's Mobility division showed off at Lenovo Tech World 2023 its "Adaptive Display Concept." Its flexible screen screen can bend at different points allowing you to wrap it around your wrist. 

This concept sports a Full HD Plus resolution pOLED screen. You can bend it in half to transform that 6.9-inch display into a 4.6-inch compact one. So, you can stand it upright as foldables do or wrap it around your wrist to carry it. Lenovo and Motorola aren't strangers to weird phone concepts. We saw the Rizr rollable phone earlier this year. And with concepts like this, there is no guarantee they'll come to market. It is interesting to see what companies are thinking about the future of smartphones.
