The 'unbreakable' mobile phone: Samsung shows off radical paper thin flexible screen

(An Update)

Samsung has shown off a radical 'bending' mobile phone that could be virtually unbreakable.
The Korean electronics company provided a glimpse of such a device at a keynote speech Wednesday at the International CES gadget show in Las Vegas.
The screen is expected to find its way in to Samsung handset, although the firm said the devices shown, which ran Microsoft's phone software, were only prototypes.

Screen is made by overlaying components onto plastic instead of glass
OLED screens are able to flex easily, and can even be use to create radical 'curved' phone designs

HOW IT WORKS

1) The screen uses organic light-emitting diodes, or OLEDs.
2) Only a thin layer of these chemicals is needed to produce a bright, colorful screen.
3) They're used in many Samsung phones already, though with glass screens.
4) For the bendable phone, Samsung laid the chemicals over thin plastic instead of glass.
