Concept phone

The Nokia Morph concept phone has been circulating on the internet for quite some time now. The technology, a phone that is transparent and flexible, was seen as something of a very distant future. Well the Korea Advanced Institute of Science and Technology have developed a chip that is almost completely transparent.

The chip uses a technology called Transparent Resistive Random Access Memory, or TRRAM, which allows it to be almost completely transparent and therefore satisfying 1 of 2 technical conditions for the Nokia Morph. The company will be focusing its efforts on building said flexible materials meaning the Nokia Morph could arrive to market much faster than anticipated.

There have been a ton of concept phones coming out of Japan including a trumpet phone, a phone based on a plywood design and now a teddy bear phone. The conceptual Kuma Phone was recently shown off in Japan by Willcom, and Japanese girls went completely bonkers over the phone. What girl doesn’t want to put a big fuzzy bear next to their head instead of a hard shell of cold heartless metal.

The device can hold up to four speed dial numbers, boasts a built-in vibration function and allows users to answer / terminate calls by “pressing the tail.” The phone will cost around $500.
