Foldable or rollable? You don’t need to choose with this concept phone.

TCL is well known for showcasing crazy concepts. Earlier this year, it outed the Fold ‘n Roll, which combined foldable and rollable screen technology into a single phone. Now, it seems we’ve finally got a glimpse of this tech in the flesh.

An evolution of this design was showcased at last month’s DTC 2021 in China and captured in a video published by Fold Universe. The concept phone in question includes the usual book-like folding system we’ve seen on several foldables thus far, but the screen wraps around the phone’s left-hand edge. This design negates the need for a secondary screen. Adding to this arrangement is a rollable system. The screen can extend to the left when unfolded, giving the user even more usable pixels.
