Samsung Makes A Curved Smartphone

• Samsung plans to introduce a smartphone with a curved display screen.

• Curved screens are rare among smartphones since they usually have a flat, rectangular display.

• The displays are supposed to offer a more immerse viewing experience, but are significantly more expensive than standard screens.

• The edges of the smartphone would open exponentially more space for viewing content.

• It opens up into a small tablet.

• This bendable display screen could be unbreakable.

• However, it still faces a major challenge in making other handset components, such as batteries, that can bend with the rest of the unit.

• Whether the phone would be plastic or not is undecided.

• This phone could be a version of the Galaxy S3.

• The Nexus smartphone, which was release in 2011, had a slight curve to it, but this phone takes the concept further. 

• A curved screen would also boost Samsung's status as a leader on the mobile innovation front.

• No exact price or release date.
