Confirmed: Samsung to deliver YOUM flexible displays by Next year

A BBC report confirmed that Samsung Display Inc. will start delivering the previously rumored flexible OLED screens Samsung YOUM. This technology will be the future of Smartphones and tablets... Imagine treating your phone like a piece of paper.

Samsung is obviously not the only company working on the technology. LG, Philips, Sharp, Sony and Nokia are all working on flexible displays, but the word is that Samsung will be the first to actually ship the displays in products as early as next year 2013.

Of course, we still don't have flexible motherboards, or flexible batteries, so don't expect fully flexible phones just yet. Researchers are still working on just such handsets, razor-thin, paper-like and bendable.
