Future Mobile Phone




Morph: Future Mobile Phone Concept
From Nokia Uses Nanotechnology


Yes this is the future of mobile,
a Flexible, Stretchable, Beautiful concept mobile is here.

Nokia in its joint research with Cambridge University has unveiled Morph Concept mobile phone device which uses nanotechnology and shows how future mobile phones could be flexible and stretchable.

The concept demonstrates some of the never before functions that nanotechnology can deliver, such as flexibility, transparent electronics, and surfaces that clean themselves.




The features that Morph would bring to us are:

*Devices become self-cleaning and self-preserving

*Transparent electronics ( isn’t it great)

*Built-in solar absorption might charge a device, whilst batteries become smaller, longer lasting and faster to charge

*Integrated sensors which let you know about the environment around you.

*Newly-enabled flexible and transparent materials blend more seamlessly with the way we live

*Transparent electronics offering an entirely new aesthetic dimension



In addition to the advances above, the integrated electronics shown in the Morph concept could cost less and include more functionality in a much smaller space, even as interfaces are simplified and usability is enhanced. All of these new capabilities will unleash new applications and services that will allow us to communicate and interact in unprecedented ways.





Launched alongside The Museum of Modern Art “Design and The Elastic Mind” exhibition, the Morph concept device is a bridge between highly advanced technologies and their potential benefits to end-users. This device concept showcases some revolutionary leaps being explored by Nokia Research Center (NRC) in collaboration with the Cambridge Nanoscience Centre (United Kingdom) – nanoscale technologies that will potentially create a world of radically different devices that open up an entirely new spectrum of possibilities.


Morph is a concept that demonstrates how future mobile devices might be stretchable and flexible, allowing the user to transform their mobile device into radically different shapes. It demonstrates the ultimate functionality that nanotechnology might be capable of delivering: flexible materials, transparent electronics and self-cleaning surfaces. Dr. Bob Iannucci, Chief Technology Officer, Nokia, commented: "Nokia Research Center is looking at ways to reinvent the form and function of mobile devices; the Morph concept shows what might be possible".
