The DRAS Phone: a Truly Foldable Smartphone
Modern smartphones have grown in size as users require a larger screen to interact with, which simultaneously compromises a smartphone's portability; the DRAS phone has been designed to address this issue. The design incorporates a flexible screen without a solid frame around it so that it can be unfolded to a highly compact standard phone format that allows the user to check his messages, the time, the weather, other notifications, etc. or, alternatively, it can be folded to a mini-phone that is the perfect format for a pocket.

CONSTRUCTION
- Assembled with a accordion style folding function, the DRAS Phone incorporates convenient form with innovate flexible touchscreen interface.
- The screen itself senses finger force, which means sensors can be placed behind the flexible surface without affecting touchscreen performance.
- Fully collapsible, the phone folds from a 60mm x 27mm x 33mm or 60 mm x 54mm x 16mm to a fully functional 110 mm x 60 mm x 8mm smartphone.

When will this be available and for how much?
!Report as spam -
Why would a little rectangular box be a better shape for a pocket than a long, flat phone that can lay flat against my leg in my long, flat pocket? I'm not sure this is solving a problem.
!Report as spam-
I agree. I and every male I know carries their phone in the front pocket. The slim flat phone is a much better shape for carry.

Hello William,
A flat phone will break if you put it in the back pocket and you try to sit or it will be easier to be stolen. Few pants have a deep enough front pocket and walking with such a phone at the front can be highly uncomfortable.!Report as spam-
Is it available for all or still not....???
If yes, then please share the details of how & from where can we purchase.!Report as spam

Hi D H, thank you for the callout! You are 100% correct, we've gone ahead and fixed the error.

Someone needs to check the dimensions. A 60mm x 54mm fully functional smart phone is rather small by todays standards. The pictures suggest something more oblong.
!Report as spam-
That's folded, 110mm X 60mm is the phone
