KTFT T1200 EverTwist origami mobile phone

 

Korean mobile phone manufacturer KTFT have just announced the new KTF-TR2000 (Ever Twist) mobile phone. Although its features are pretty standard (1.3megapixel, MP3 player, Pict bridge, T-flash external memory), it has a strikingly novel form factor.  According to KTFT, it features a “twist rotation” design. When rotated, the folder is twisted asymmetrically away from the keypad. Why, you may ask? Well, when twisted, you see the screen, plus one row of buttons from the standard keypad.  These then act as hot-keys for the camera and camcorder.  Not sure if this warrants the design and engineering effort that must have gone into this mobile handset, but the resulting origami-like form factor is pretty nifty.
