    Companies have been promising us futuristic, paper-like displays since forever, but so far we remain unimpressed. The ReFlex, a prototype flexible smartphone from Queens University is tantalizingly close to what we've been waiting for, though.

Powering the device is an Android 4.4-powered board, complete with custom drivers, placed in the non-flexible part beside the display.
