Samsung To Release Bendable TVs This Year

Samsung at CES 2014 showed off a concept television that can transform itself from a conventional flat screen to a curved TV via remote control. Dubbed as ‘Bendable TV’, this 85-inch 4K TV will ship this year under the model number U9B.

Samsung says that giving users the ability to switch between a flat screen and a curved TV would enhance the viewing experience, as users can easily switch the shape of the TV. Just press a button on the remote control and a mechanical system behind the screen spring into action, bending the edges out into curved shape. A second button-press and the process reverses, flattening the screen into the same shape as your current HDTV. The transition takes just 10 seconds or so.
