Since their appearance in the 1980s, cellphone have been made, more or less, of rigid boxes.  However, at an event in San Francisco a newly debuted flexible cellphone concept is paving the way for a new era of consumer electronics.

In a video presentation at the MobileBeat conference Samsung’s President Young Sohn previewed a concept for a flexible cellphone platform that’s not only a stage for communication but for healthcare monitoring as well.

While its hard to image Samsung’s mobile concept making it to market anytime soon the core idea of a single device that can handle all of your needs will certainly drive the future of mobile device design.
