Hi guys Samsung showed off a new flexible display technology called Youm . During the company's keynote address at CES in Las Vegas, company executives talked up Youm , which is designed to bring out better colors and contrast, with a superthin form factor. It uses OLED display technology. Brian Berkeley, the senior vice president of Samsung's display lab in San Jose, Calif., held up a prototype of a phone that has one of these displays that's bent around the side of the phone, so you can see updates on the side. The technology will let the company's partners make bendable, rollable, and foldable displays, he said. Flexible display technology has been cooking at Samsung for a while now -- the company showed off a display prototype, sans phone, at CES 2011 . Samsung slapped the Youm brand name on the technology last spring. Other companies are dabbling in similar efforts to produce bendy displays. LG and Nokia have also recently demonstrated flexible prototypes for smartphones and tablets.

During its CES 2013 keynote presentation, Samsung showed a concept video of just how flexible Youm displays could be. The video started out with three actors in a coffee shop, one of whom folds up his high-tech wallet phone thing -- imagine a tablet that folds like a bifold wallet. Another one breaks out a tablet that rolls out from something the size of a handheld voice recorder. Microsoft's chief technical strategy officer, Eric Rudder, then came on stage to demo a prototype of how a Windows Phone would look using a Youm display.
