A teenager's 'iPhone rival' concept

Some interest has been aroused in a concept phone imagined by a 15-year-old Korean studying in Canada. Called the Butterfly, the phone would have a compact white "brick" shape with an elongated touchscreen on the front, enabling access to functions like music, the camera, and receiving calls. Of particular note however is a larger, 3.5-inch AMOLED screen, which would slide out from under the phone to a 30-degree angle. This would allow access to a variety of functions, including dialing, web browsing and videos. Due partly to the minimal interface and the ability to forego a stylus, the Butterfly has been compared to the Apple iPhone. More images can be found below.
