TCL’s new mobile phone can be folded and rolled up at the same time

The TCL Fold ‘n Roll concept is the first mobile that can be folded and rolled up at the same time.

TCL recently unveiled a concept called Fold ‘n Roll. This is the first mobile that, although a prototype, can be folded and rolled up at the same time. In principle, TCL will launch its first flexible display device later this year, but it probably won’t be.

The interesting thing about the Fold ‘n Roll is that it can be folded outwards, but the panel can also be rolled up, so that the screen can be opened wider when open. TCL has also developed new types of hinges for this purpose.

The 6.87-inch display is already 8.85 inches when open and 10 inches when unfolded. In addition to the dimensions, the aspect ratio also changes. TCL likes to experiment with new display technologies, which is no coincidence, as it also owns a display manufacturer called CSOT. In the future, I would use glass to protect folding screens, for example. However, according to TCL, it will take time for the devices shown above to be available in stores.
