Disclosure: The phones featured in the frame are vintage devices that have been pre-loved and carefully sourced. While every effort is made to ensure their presentation is clean and visually appealing, they may show minor signs of wear, such as small scratches or blemishes, due to their age and prior use. These imperfections add to the authenticity and historical value of the product.
Product Details
The Royole FlexPai holds a unique place in smartphone history as the world's first commercially available foldable phone. Announced in October 2018 and released in limited quantities in December 2018 — beating Samsung's Galaxy Fold to market by several months — it proved that foldable smartphones could actually exist outside of a concept video.
Its single flexible AMOLED display wraps around the outside of the device, folding in half to transform from a 7.8-inch tablet into a compact phone. Royole Technologies, the company behind it, has since been declared bankrupt, making genuine units increasingly rare collector's pieces and a permanent entry in the history books of mobile technology.

Crafted with Care
We take pride in creating frames that look great and are built to last. Each collectible begins with a carefully selected device in excellent condition, which we disassemble and preserve. Only the best parts are chosen and carefully glued onto a backboard, then placed inside our frame made to showcase the phone clearly and beautifully. Every detail matters—from precise layouts to high-quality materials. Unlike typical frame products, we focus on accuracy and storytelling, highlighting the phone’s significance as a piece of tech history.
