Lenovo's bending smartphone, which first made its appearance in concept form at the Lenovo Tech World Conference in 2016, is making its way back -- this time without cracking. The company shared a 10-second video captioned, "We are just so terribly good. It's time to show off. We'll see you in October," on their Weibo account, one of the most popular microblogging platforms in China.
You can see the new and improved phone's ability to bend with the widgets adjusting in real-time to more appropriately display the content based on its new shape.
We've been waiting for more news about this innovative phone for two years and, according to the video caption, the phone is right around the corner -- maybe not yet for purchase, though. But will it be worth the hype? The company itself posted a video with unexplained dark spots along the right edge that appear to be due to wear and tear...but, then again, maybe they're intentional.
